Damn … 2012
“We’re a long way from SSDs that come in 1 Terrabyte for a reasonable price”
I remember buying 2x3TB externals back then. One was a backup I shipped to my sister. They contained everything I cared about, before I sold everything and left the US for a few years.
Also I don’t think I knew LTT existed back then … nor do I remember watching any tech YouBoobers. I think that’s back when people still read TomsHardware and there were tons on online parts stores and things like price-scan and price-watch to compare prices. All that was gone when I came back.
Now we just have a ton of YouBoob reviewers and Amazon/Newegg/eBay unless your in one of 10 cities with a Microcenter.
