ah, the real reason why spinning rust will have to go away at some point: every time capacity doubles, any full disk transfer or wipe takes ~40% longer.
4-6 TB drives already take a quarter to half day to do anything, and the having to wait over a full day for 20 TB drives to get formatted, imaged, or scanned just seems maddening.

C'mon anon, it's 2015. Not even Gigabit yet? Shit, business grade networks should be using 10Gb copper switches by now.

Yea, it sucks, but I'm a cheap fuck and don't want to get rid of working hardware.

It's actually faster if you look away
transferring 1 large file is faster than transferring a million small files. its too late now, but archive anything that contains 5k+ files.
