We backed up Spotify (metadata and music files). It’s distributed in bulk torrents (~300TB), grouped by popularity.
This release includes the largest publicly available music metadata database with 256 million tracks and 186 million unique ISRCs.
It’s the world’s first “preservation archive” for music which is fully open (meaning it can easily be mirrored by anyone with enough disk space), with 86 million music files, representing around 99.6% of listens.
If your nas has 300tb spare, you could.
I read it as 30tb in my head. 300tb is a bit more than i can manage
How much could it cost $10,000
A RAID6 of 24 * 20TB drives could contain that with both parity and hotswap, with room to spare. Let’s say $400 per refurb drive, $2500 rackmount SAS enclosure, $2000 SAS RAID card, $14,100 total. Assuming you already have the server and power and SAS cables.
Considering the Price per TB is 10-11 US dollars, it’s gonna cost $3500 max
10US dollar per TB?? 🤣🤣 More like 30/35€ per TB for a good graded HDD!
Let’s not talk about SSDs or nvme which are more in the 120€/TB.
I always hear people say that storage comes cheap nowaday… I’m still looking for that cheap HDD on amazon… It has been 10 years 🤣🤣
$10/TB is a bit low, but not far off. Serverpartdeals has refurbed enterprise/NAS drives at about $15/TB right now, and thats with the AI pressure driving up prices. I recall seeing 18TB drives around $12/TB a few months back.
The above is well loved vendor in the IT space. Much better place to buy from than Amazon, as they actually guarantee their inventory is legitimate.
US of A often has way lower hdd prices compared to Europe.
Take the serverpartdeals price and add shipping and import tax.
Is it that cheap now?? I would kill for 10tb
It’s nowhere near that cheap.
Here you go mate. They dont have 10TB in stock, but the do have 20TB refurbs at around $15/TB.
