What possible excuse for ever deleting anything will people have after this? 

 

You could stuff every flight sim ever made on there and have room to spare.

If I had 5 terabytes of Photoscenery and the drive ever died, I would have shown up at my mom's house, sucking my thumb and needing a hug.......

3 - 4TB drives are cheaper per GB and allow you to mirror the most important files (manually or via some continuous or scheduled backup scheme).

 

I've got a couple of 4TB and 1 - 2TB drives in my system (around 10 TB total) and about 1.1TB in SSD storage. I need to replace one of the 1TB HDD's with a 4TB one because I'm kind of running out of space. I wish prices per GB would go down though - they've been the same for years. Yeah I miss the good old days when a couple of 700MB CD-R's was enough to back up all your stuff.
