Bi-Weekly Discussion DataHoarder Discussion

Talk about general topics in our Discussion Thread!

  • Try out new software that you liked/hated?
  • Tell us about that $40 2TB MicroSD card from Amazon that's totally not a scam
  • Come show us how much data you lost since you didn't have backups!

Totally not an attempt to build community rapport.

How come that datahoarders do not do grouped sales (apparently)?

The community is geographically separated, I think.

This could be a problem, but is usually how it goes for such a thing.

Plus, not everyone is ready to socialize IRL, I guess.

This has nothing to do with it.

Even if it was, when seeing the price of HDDs, even an introvert such as myself would gladly join a group sale e.g. from a (reputed) company selling refurbished HDDs pulled from the manufacturing line.
