I'm amazed it's only $800. I figured that shit was gonna be like 8-10 thousand.
Well, it's a Seagate, so it still comes out to about a hundred bucks a month.

my qbittorrent is gonna love that
Well, largest this week. And
Yeah, $800 isnβt a small chunk of change, but for a hard drive of this capacity, itβs monumentally cheap.
Nah, a 24TB is $300 and some 20TB's are even lower $ per TB.
I paid $600+ for a 24 TB drive, tax free. I feel robbed. Although I'm glad not to shop at Newegg.

Great, can't wait to afford it in 60 years.
Finally, a hard drive which can store more than a dozen modern AAA games
This hard drive is so big that when it sits around the house, it sits around the house.
This hard drive is so big when it moves, the Richter scale picks it up.
Me who stores important data on seagate external HDD with no backup reading the comments roasting seagate:

It will take about 36 hours to fill this drive at 270mb/s
Thatβs a long time to backup your giraffe porn collection.
What kind of degenerate do you think I am? Thatβs 36 hours to back up my walrus porn collection.

I wanna fuck this HDD. To have that much storage on one drive when I currently have ~30TB shared between 20 drives makes me very erect.

Can't wait to see this bad boy on serverpartdeals in a couple years if I'm still alive
if I'm still alive
That goes without saying, unless you anticipate something. Do you?
no thanks Seagate. the trauma of losing my data because of a botched firmware with a ticking time bomb kinda put me off your products for life.
see you in hell.
I can certainly understand holding grudges against corporations. I didnβt buy anything from Sony for a very long time after their fuckery with George Hotz and Nintendo's latest horseshit has me staying away from them, but that was a single firmware bug that locked down hard drives (note, the data was still intact) a very long time ago. Seagate even issued a firmware update to prevent the bug from biting users it hadnβt hit yet, but firmware updates at the time werenβt really something people thought to ever do, and operating systems did not check for them automatically back then like they do now.
Seagate fucked up but they also did everything they could to make it right. That matters. Plus, look at their competition. WD famously lied about their red drives not being SMR when they actually were. And Iβve only ever had WD hard drives and sandisk flash drives die on me. And guess who owns sandisk? Western Digital!
I guess if you must go with a another company, thereβs the louder and more expensive Toshiba drives but I have never used those before so I know nothing about them aside from their reputation for being loud.

That's a lot of porn. And possibly other stuff, too.
Nah, the other stuff will all fit on your computer's hard drive, this is only for porn. They should call it the Porn Drive.

Sorry but without a banana for scale it's hard to tell how big it really is

What is the usecase for drives that large?
I 'only' have 12Tb drives and yet my zfs-pool already needs ~two weeks to scrub it all. With something like this it would literally not be done before the next scheduled scrub.
Sounds like something is wrong with your setup. I have 20TB drives (x8, raid 6, 70+TB in use) .... scrubbing takes less than 3 days.
Jesus, my pool takes a little over a day, but Iβve only got around 100 tb how big is your pool?

High capacity storage pools for enterprises.
Space is at a premium. Saving space should/could equal to better pricing/availability.

There is an enterprise storage shelf (aka a bunch of drives that hooks up to a server) made by Dell which is 1.2 PB (yes petabytes). So there is a use, but it's not for consumers.
That's a use-case for a fuckton of total capacity, but not necessarily a fuckton of per-drive capacity. I think what the grandparent comment is really trying to say is that the capacity has so vastly outstripped mechanical-disk data transfer speed that it's hard to actually make use of it all.
For example, let's say you have these running in a RAID 5 array, and one of the drives fails and you have to swap it out. At 190MB/s max sustained transfer rate (figure for a 28TB Seagate Exos; I assume this new one is similar), you're talking about over two days just to copy over the parity information and get the array out of degraded mode! At some point these big drives stop being suitable for that use-case just because the vulnerability window is so large that the risk of a second drive failure causing data loss is too great.
