The vast majority of PC users aren't going to use 1 TB of storage. Future tech is learning how to use crystal correctly. Super future tech is just making a time machine to go back and already have it done. SSDs will stay where they're at for awhile because unless you are running a db with like, all of the personal information of every person ever you're not going to have an issue of running out of space. And if you do? Fucking delete or back that shit up else where what. Like you are the reason horders is a show. | ||

Most people that need big HD's dont really "need" them because they have terabytes of files they havn't looked at, interacted with, or have even known exists for years. Myself is a good example of this. I probably have 250 GB of reference texts and shit saved, and no matter what I have to do I end up doing primary research and saving a fuck ton more... even though I have a good 5 years worth of grade A reference materials saved already. I dunno man. People are strange including me. | ||

I remember it was a header for a while in this thread, but I didn't get into discord until way after that.

High speed HD aren't exactly a niche market (though its kinda is because people don't understand why you want high speed HDs) People like fast computers. Which doesn't mean they want gtx1080 just that they want their facebook machines to move quickly. pcie is overpriced. Having a few TB of files is normal, having a few TB of files which you need SSD speed access to at all times isn't :p Most people who need the space just have a 250 or 512gb ssd, then shove all the non response time dependent stuff onto a 1tb or 2tb hdd. The vast majority of stuff really doesn't benefit that much from even being on an SSD compared to a decent 7200rpm hard drive that there isn't really a consumer market for 1tb SSD's except for laptops where you can't have multiple drives. Although if anyones had their finger on the pulse on GPU prices, mind giving a quick recap of how the 10xx gpu's have shaken up prices, and if there are any more major shifts predicted over the next few months/year?

Honestly, a lot of the people who are buying 1tb SSDs probably should be doing this, but get scammed into buying a big SSD "because it's faster" when their normal usage results in next to no benefit over the aforementioned setup. There's a small number of people who legitimately need SSD access speed for that much data, but it's definitely dwarfed by the number who don't and buy them anyway. | ||
