yeah, and can you afford 20 TBs of SSDs?

Microphones can be so small, you wouldn’t recognize them if you stare at one.
Dangerous disinformation
SSD never Zero any information. That would be a colossal waste of very limited write cycles. Even if you think you have overwritten something it is still on the SSD, it just mapped to the back of the stack.
One can overwrite HDD, eventually not completely because HDD contain spare tracks, sectors for the remapping of bad sectors. Still, significant less problematic than flash memory.

Its really dropped in price since they came out, Can get 1-2TB right now for about a quarter they used to be, and will probably be a fraction of that within the next few years

Hey Paul, I gotta good one for you, for all you crazy leftist thought leaders who project paranoia onto your eeeevil obedient right wingnuts. Goes like this.
Earth is a simulated hell. It is a very specific hell, for people descended of a very specific sin: the entrapping of souls in a simulated hell. Earth is watched over by people who broke themselves into guardians of hell. They watch, with varying levels of sincerity, some of them bored and others frustrated, as they struggle to decipher which humans would and which humans would not trap souls in simulated hells. So far attempts to complete the experiment have failed; all the narcissistic guardians of the flock have achieved is psychologically abusing each other while accidentally victimizing humans.
That’s why technology advances. Slowly, agonizingly, it is being conceded that the only way to learn which humans would trap souls in simulated hells is to give them tools that permit increasingly accurate simulacra of the deed.
So be good. Don’t abuse the vulnerable, lest you live in your pattern. If we are all quite honest, we can prove to the would-be judges that they themselves were the evil all along, entrapping people in a simulated hell as they did.
This post is of course fiction.

A lot of misconceptions about SSD ITT.
My current build uses all SSD and one external HDD for longterm storage.
The speed is amazing. I can from power/boot to usuable OS in 5-10 seconds. If you use programs that spread files across your drive like vidya, video/music editing software, AutoCAD etc etc etc there are technically no load times. I would say load is negligible at best.
The benefits definitely outway the cons.
But concerning the cons?
1. The price is steep for the amount storage you get. I'm not up to date on the current pricing, but expect to pay Mr. Goldstein his shekels
2. Life expectancy for SSD is shit by comparison to HDD. Now, this really shouldn't be an issue unless you're an autiste who is concerned with finding a permanent digital storage device. But as it stands, the general rule of thumb is HDD's can get ten years of use before seeing corruption or issues, every year past that the risk for total failure increases. SSD has around 6 years of use before file corruption becomes an issue. However, total hardware failure isn't an issue at ten years or more, granted the tech is still relatively new, hardware failure isn't the issue, it's data loss.
So as long as you back up important stuff on a HDD and multiple sources, a SSD is worth the money.
