Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

So do NAS rated HDD’s go on sale much for Black Friday/ Cyber Monday? What has been your experience in the past?

Double check that you are not limited to synology drives only.

Mechanical hard drive storage has gotten really cheap. Just get Seagate ironwolfs now (or Exos if you don’t care about noise).

Is it 923+ or 920+?
