We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

You know you can only move data 300TB/yr that counts maintenance HDD does automatically downloaded files, wrote files, and if you read some file 100 times it counts against you. No wonder their SSD division is falling out to pieces, a company shouldn't be anti-consumer like WD and blatantly does whatever they want. Some hard core NAS user said he can go though 300TB in 2 weeks then he is out of warranty completely and forever.
You are warned.
