    Backups can always use all of these. Doesn’t matter how scrappy it is a couple of hard drives with a parity in running true as/freenas or just Debian with Mergerfs will last you a lot of years.

    Cassettes made a bit of a resurgence recently for audio cassettes though I would never want to return to those days for games.

    You don’t have to play their game just wait it out Sony and Xbox aren’t doing so hot financially ATM.

        I still have a 2008 2tbb harddrive from a western digital external in my stack. Mad how long they can last when you win the lottery
