The hard disk storage on many computers had already exceeded the TB limit several times and suddenly the need for hard disk storage is supposed to have decreased?

Loading...Hello, I wanted to get Tropico 5 for Mac. Steam says it's only for Windows and SteamOS. But online, I read "now available for Mac." I also found the game in the MacGamesStore (I don't mean the App Store, but another game launcher that only sells Apple games). All DLCs on Steam are also available…

Hello, I have a new Dark Power 13 1000W power supply and I'm wondering what this overclocking key is for, it's not really explained in the description.
Hello! I want to delete my save game from Game Devs Tycoon to start a Let's Play. However, none of the online posts seem to help me, as they're too complicated or outdated. Can anyone give me up-to-date instructions on how to do this on Windows 10?
Should you order the parts or a complete PC, or go and buy it yourself? And if you do, where and from whom?
Hello, I wanted to give my old Ducky one 2 sf to a very good friend. However, the Windows keycap is missing, and I'd like to give him the entire keyboard. Does anyone know how I can get it back? Or is anyone even selling it?
Hello,
for normal use, a 500GB SSD is completely sufficient.
You don’t get them full after years.
For most of the home devices, 250GB is also sufficient.
It looks different for gamers and developers. There is a 1TB NVME SSD already minimum standard.
But you can also build a second or third or…
Too much storage space cannot hurt.
At best, HDDs vie access can slow down the system somewhat.

The storage requirement has not fallen.
With PCs, only cheap HDDs were changed to more expensive SSDs.
In this case, the primary purpose is first for operating system and programs – data can be stored on separately available conventional HDDs or additional SSDs, but these are not included in the basic configuration.
I think that comes closest to my question. I find it very regrettable that in most computers not even at least one terabyte is installed, although the storage requirement has increased. Storage on the cloud is associated with a lot of extra costs and costs enormous energy than when I have my data at home. In addition, I find it very regrettable that you should become a user on the computer, as of course. What consumers do I have the right to get a reasonable offer without having to buy something at a surcharge so that I can be satisfied as a customer.
Aunt Erni can also do well with 256GB. see my answer…
Right! And who knows what he can do with it, he knows what he needs. Ergo can look for a suitable offer or change an existing one.
see my answer!
Yes Aunt Ernie doesn’t need quite right anymore, probably because she has nothing but a browser installed on her computer and doesn’t really know what to do with a computer. Unfortunately, this is a comment that does not make any sense to my question.
The need has not necessarily fallen but 500GB are also more than sufficient for many applications.
Windows needs approx. 30GB and a few programs like Office, etc. and you are at 50 – 70GB.
There’s plenty left for data.
If you are playing, editing videos or photographing a lot with system cameras, it won’t be enough but for a normal user who is surfing, writing emails and doing something in office, that’s more than enough.
This is why SSDs are faster but more expensive than HDDs. Therefore, these are usually used in systems to allow faster charging times for operating system and programs. No 1 or 2TB SSDs are planned in order not to let the costs explode so much.
I know zig companies that had offices full of computers that had a 1TB HDD on which a maximum of 200GB were occupied.
As a rule, you can plan an HDD or retrofit it if necessary.
So I don’t quite understand your problem. There are offers on the market and if they are not suitable for you, you can request an individual offer from as good as any company that is tailored to your needs.
It’s basically normal…
I see as a data savior again and again 1, 2 and 4TB HDDs which then contain only a few hundred GB of data. Not everyone needs zig TB at storage.
That’s exactly how I see 8TB HDDs filled up to a hand full of GB.
You have to make sure that you buy for your needs. I think you should be able to expect that from any customer – companies do not have a crystal ball to guess what you need.
For those who do not know, many companies also offer advice. Of course, you can use them.
Since only NVMe are installed normally only ~250 or ~500GB are installed here, as 1TB would be much too expensive in the final customer price of the device
You can upgrade when you’re after, no one will brake you
Depending on the board, you can install up to 8*22TB HDDs. Should be enough or? 😉
Yes, but the retrofitting costs even more. In the end I paid more than I wanted
Most computers and laptops are available in different configurations. In addition, this means 250 or 500 GB of SSD for the OS and all that belongs to it.
If the place isn’t enough, a larger HDD than the second hard drive is the right choice then you don’t have to exchange anything
I have already commented that you have a system on the computer with a few programs and then the computer goes into the knees. I made a purchase like a car that has no tyres yet.
It has tyres. Maybe not the best but enough for probably 90% of users.
I don’t use more than 200GB. Large data such as movies, etc. are on a NAS.
Wouldn’t be bullshit for me if the smallest variant 1TB were I would never use completely.
Unfortunately, this is not the answer to my question why computers are sold today with 512 GB and not with more hard disk storage.
"Unfortunately, this is not the answer to my question why computers are sold today with 512 GB and not with more hard disk storage."
I wrote the following
"Unfortunately, this is not the answer to my question why computers are sold today with 512 GB and not with more hard disk storage."
And people just look at the money and then they find out that there is too little storage. What is also irrelevant, since you can retrofit storage at any time
And a ~500 NVMe is enough to usually, plus a 2TB HDD and then this is enough for ordinary home use
I asked you a question whose answer I already know I just wanted to know if there is an honest answer to my question. Of course I can buy a notebook. the SSD, and then I’ll buy one with more storage I’ll install. Of course, it should be noted that this is also feasible and that the components are approached. What is becoming more and more difficult in many cases. There’s an industry that produces a lot of garbage.
If I have an operating system installed and there are a few programs then the hard drive is full of that is like a car purchase without a tire.
A Thunderbolt or USB-C hard drive / SSD can reach speeds of an internal SSD with minimal latency. What more do you want?
Besides, no one stops buying a 1 – 5 TB large SSD / HDD and installing it in your system. What is given to you is not what you need yourself.
These are hidden extra costs and you have to open the wallet again
500GB are more than enough, why you should want to build more
A computer that has 1 Terabyte costs 1600 €. As a consumer, I’m classified as a computer crafter, that’s ridiculous.
Who’s saying that? You can add a 2 or 4TB HDD to most PC shops in a configurator for a few hundred Euros for a small surcharge…
e.g. https://www.dubaro.de/mixxxer.php?products_id=5190#headOf39
I come out wonderfully with a 256Gb hard drive, but maybe this is about linux
Many programs already have much more than a gigabyte during the installation I don’t even talk about the data I generate. the hard drive can be no less full than I used to have a two terabyte hard drive on the computer. It was noticed for much less money.
Hello barely allowed 1,
What do you think?
You can (almost) install as much memory as you are funny.
You can also install four 16 Terrabyte HDDs if you need it.
The assumption that there are only 512Gb is wrong.
LG KTM
I don’t want to add anything to it, it’s about buying something that’s already enough as before.
Oh, yeah.
Because cheaper.
Most finished PC manufacturers make sure that the core components are good (CPU and possibly GPU). There is often saved in memory.
In addition, HDDs were replaced by much faster SSDs, which are more expensive.
All this doesn’t mean that you can’t add anything in addition or there are no other PCs with more memory or the option.
I did not say that there are only 512 GB only they are sold almost exclusively so
I just find it funny that there are now smaller hard disks than before
I know I can buy as much terabyte as I want. If you have an operating system and a few programs on it, the hard drive is full and the computer goes into the knees.
I have Terabyte storage options. I have already noticed several times that with the installation of the operating system and a few programs the hard disk memory on the computer goes quickly into the knees. I already use other hard drives to secure data. I have an older computer you can’t install on Windows 11 and it has a terabyte disk memory. I paid 999 € for him.
Even “basteln” is not at all difficult and usually cheaper, so yes, why not.
And so much extra costs ne 2Tb HDD now also not…
So, if I want a usable computer without making, then you just have to scroll or make yourself.
You save less and less on the hard drive, you save it on clouds.
The mistake will take revenge
But you can’t install an application and it costs money every month and consumes incredibly much energy,🤔
The storage space is sufficient for applications.
This is the latest trend
… and Cloud is nothing but “the computer of another.”…
Yes, of course, it will be revenge to have everything on the cloud, so I put this question here.
Clouds
