It’s incredible how much the prices have fallen and that’s how it should be. Sure, I bought the 960 close to launch but still the difference is staggering.

The 960 Evo still chugs along albeit it’s a new one because a few months after I bought it, I had to RMA it. I guess that’s what happens when you are an early adopter. I lost a few hours of work when the original 960 Evo decided to stop working but it also taught me to be more paranoia with backups.

      It’s only deflated because our storage needs have vastly inflated! This is like 6 AAA games and maybe a couple movies

        How many AAA games do you keep installed at the same time? I max out at maybe three, personally. Realistically I’d be more than content with just two: current game + next game.

          I like to be able to just pick a random game and start playing, so I always have 100+ games installed.

            For a sense of scale the entire Atari 2600 Library could fit on a floppy multiple times over.

        Honestly storage requirements haven’t gone up that much since 2014. Storage speed did go up tho
