One of those requires more power than two modern 22 TB drives, lol.

Not many good deals today? in c/datahoarder@selfhosted.forum

There are 20 TB EXOS drives for $270 on Newegg.

Newegg cheaping out on packaging is ridiculous. SSDs were shipped in an extremely thin bubble mailer, and someone appears to have stepped on it. in c/datahoarder@selfhosted.forum

Did you expect them to ship it in a Pelican case?

20tb vs 22tb in c/datahoarder@selfhosted.forum

This option is worth considering:
https://www.newegg.com/seagate-exos-x20-st20000nm007d-20tb/p/N82E16822185011

$14/TB for a 20 TB HDD

Is it worth it to hoard APK Games? I have like 1000+ APK of games I downloaded from 2011-2016 in c/datahoarder@selfhosted.forum

No, because most of them have data to download anyway, so if they go down, the APK itself will be useless.

$/TB across storage size and type. Interestingly, no price premium for high capacity HDDs. in c/datahoarder@selfhosted.forum

No one buys at the full price unless they absolutely have to.
