    Very good but can someone please invent a 4TB drive that costs less than it did five years ago?

      I don’t know about HDDs but for SSDs they hit a very low price last September 2023, and the companies decided to cut production so the prices go up again. It worked, today SSD drives are more expensive than last year. I bet they did something similar to the HDD, but it’s only hypothetical.

    “For personal users, this SSD can store 11,000 90-minute 4K movies,”

    This is less useful than libraries of congress.

      Honestly, that size of drive doesn’t need a comparison. This isn’t for your average user, so you don’t need to dumb it down for them.

    Regardless of where it’s made hopefully it brings down the price of drives for the rest of us.
