Sure, but has the cost to own a TB dropped? Power, cooling, rack space, internet bandwidth, DC rental, tech time, health care, janitor, HR, etc. etc. etc.

- theshrike79 3y agoPeople tend to forget that complexity goes up exponentially as the amount of data goes up. Backing up 1TB can be done by anyone, 100TB is still within hobbyist skills. 1PB is Youtuber money. Anything upwards of that with data retention, backups, redundancy and uptime guarantees requires actual professionals who still want to be paid in dollars and not exposure =)
- sliken 3y agoNot to mention I could see backblaze (and more specifically b2 keystore) being IOP limited. Sadly 16TB drives have approximately similar IOPs to 1TB drives.
