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.
I ended up getting the 14tb Seagate expansion for $239. There's a 18tb WD easystore that goes for $299 and ends up being a better value. It was out of stock in store at Best buy and I was okay with 14 so I just went with that. So, I guess you could wait for the 18tb WD to go on sale for $299 again. That was the best deal I could find in terms of $/TB.
