20tb vs 22tb

ionhowto@alien.topB to Data Hoarder@selfhosted.forumEnglish · 1 year ago

Black friday time I buy a hdd.

Now I’m torn between a 20tb at about 17+/tb or pay more per tb and get a 22tb and also feature it in a YouTube video (I do YouTube).

Feels like price difference is between 350 and 450 approx. So the 20 is a better deal but would be nice to try a 22tb.

Also space is important so going for the bigger sizes is the reason for me but this here is only a 2tb difference.

What do you think? 22tb or 20tb hdd?

This option is worth considering:

$14/TB for a 20 TB HDD
