I’ll keep it short, I’ve had hardrives since I was like 18 so I have a good amount of them over the years.
They have insane amount of stuff on them from college, university, travelling, work, thousands and thousands of photos and videos on them. From when I’ve just wanted to wipe my laptop or iPhone I just move EVERYTHING over. So theres probably some private stuff on there I don’t even know about. Nothing illegal of course but more just personal stuff you wouldn’t want in a strangers hands or something.
I’m looking at all these hardrives and thinking I might have to go through them and completely declutter but it seems like such an effort. None of it is really organised either lol.
There’s rare occasions when I need/want to find something from those eras and plug them in so they’re handy at times but I don’t know, i feel so overwhelmed. Anyone else?
What do you do with it all?
I feel like I should have them all in one place with like a password on them or something.
EDIT: off to bed but just read a few will check more in morning, looks like multiple recommending a NAS but I have no idea what that is
