I bought my first spinning rust in years yesterday, modern content creation is sort of untenable on just SSDs. Especially if you're holding on to originals for any length of time. If I'm shooting two cameras at full quality it's almost 4gb/minute. Just about the entire size of my very first Quantum Fireball SE.
I love the information density of this article. Compelling case for investing in hdd manufacturing sector as well as a great explanation of why tape storage is still a growing market (Subpoenas and cold data storage cost in case you were wondering).
Could it be because SSDs and hard disks are both made by same guys?
