Ken's waiting until there's a Nobel Beer Prize.  Then he'll consider going for it.

I had a hard drive failing (my old 500 GB OS drive) which was causing Windows 10 grief (lots of errors and BSOD's) so I bought a new 4 TB.  Now I'm going through almost all of my hard drives (20 of them) and trying to figure out the best way to organize all of my data.  I've got 13 TB of data and, now, I have 20 TB of space.  The problem is that a lot of the hard drives are small (250 GB) and there's a good amount of duplication.  I think I have my goals down in a spreadsheet, now it's just hours and hours of going through folders, running file sync and duplicate file software then all that moving around of data...  Yeesh...
 
I'm sooooo happy that large hard drives are cheap now.  I didn't get one (because the store was sold out), but I saw a 6 TB Toshiba internal hard drive on sale for only $199 (I got a WD 4 TB for $139 instead).  I still remember buying a 10 MB (yes, Megabyte!) hard drive for $520!  Ah, progress...
