Are hard drives harder or more expensive to come by these days due to COVID related production issues? Or is storage not decreasing in price according to their benchmark? Google Workspace only offers 30gb in their lower priced plans ($6/month) which seems a bit less too.
- kazen44 6y agohard disk storage has been static in terms of drive size of the last couple of years. 12TB is roughly the maximum economic size you can get right now.
- rkagerer 6y agoCounterpoint: I just upgraded a small fleet of drives to 16GB models because that was the optimal price/GB after checking a multitude of supply channels (at least at 7200 RPM). My last upgrade was to 4TB and I've no doubt my next in a few years will be to 64 (though might be a different technology eg. SSD if the relative economics change).
