Why would you actually need, as an individual, such a large drive? A business yes of course but for an individual it seems a bit excessive for normal day to day usage. Please search before trying to correct me, and please do be specific when you say drive do you mean HDD or SSD either way Samsun has not produced a 60TB HDD or SSD but as i stated SEAGATE produced a 60TB SAS SSD which was more a test enterprise product than an actual product for the general market with prices reported from $10k to $40k and largest HDD actually available on the market right now is 24TB Seagate just "released' a 30TB HDD but that is not readily available anywhere yet seriously dude, takes 2 seconds👇 Edited April 27 by patman30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It uses 10W so it's left on 24/7, no need to conserve power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Paulson Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I don’t even bother anymore. I’ve reached what I’ve termed carrying capacity. My data doesn’t grow from this size, stuff just gets deleted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samsung produced a SSD and that was costing something in the range ot GBP 16,000. Yes it has. Probably never had buys so didnt continue but they did produce one. It still begs the question why would you want such a large drive. If, and only you know why, you need so much capacity a storage bank would be better instead of a single drive.

NO, Samsung did NOT produce a 60TB drive HDD or SSD SEAGATE did SEAGATE also have recently produced/announced a 30TB drive 24TB drives are already on the market so NO, you would not need a rack of Drives for 60TB, but 2 or 3 HDD (if you can somehow manage to get a 30TB at this stage, but 24TB are available) and Teamgroup also have a 2.5" 15TB SSD (SATA not NVME) on the market so even for 60TB of SSD, again, NO you would not need a rack, but just 4 x 2.5" drives find someone else to argue with or come correct.

Probably a silly question but why would you want such a big drive? Ok, so you are going to put VDO's on it but you can get a lot on a 2Tb drive. I know I have several hundred on one, all of which is bought online and saved to my external drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than a browser displays but you do not need storage for that CPU and RAM are what matters there i run low power 7900 CPUs and just 32GB RAM each rig (5600-6000) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
