      Yeah. Normal people have about 100tb of total space. My 96tb (64tb usable) of space is completely average and not at all an indicator of something being wrong or abnormal.

        Maybe for Americans storage falls from trees, could you share what is this normal supermarket where I can buy 100tb of total space?

          Oh. I was joking. I’m aware that my storage capabilities really are an outlier, even though I still feel inadequate whenever I go to a hoarding community.

          I’ve spent around 1200$ USD since I started collecting things back on 2021, which is about 300/year, or 25/month. I don’t expect to purchase anymore for another three years or so, right around when a 24tb drive drops to 150/each. It’s still not like, super cheap or anything though.

        Not saying its wrong, but most people probably don’t even approach 10tb. 100tb+ is definitely not the norm. Normies balk at my 50tb, and I’m definitely on the low end of data hoarding.
