[QUOTE="AnglerRoy, post: 463367, member: 24128"] I won’t get into the earlier fuss...whatever. 2,3,5TB drives would be more useful for “casual” data storage if you were implementing a real backup strategy with long-term full, incremental and differential backup schedules. To the majority of folks, they’d never go down this route, so yes, 5TB is a bit overkill. To more advanced users, 5TB isn’t excessive. Yes the OP has a valid point that drives get bigger each year, it’s the way it is. Ones data is whatever they want to keep. It’s nobody’s business what that data is, the size of it or what they do with it. You simply buy a drive for the capacity you need, and plan for the future. [/QUOTE]
