    I’m pretty sure they were referring to how the more common sizes are 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, 12 TB and so on. 6 is semi-common. 5 is relatively rare, so they probably didn’t realize they exist.

      And any 8TB disk with bad blocks makes a fine 5TB disk.

      I own a couple of 5TB drives. At the time when 8TB and above were rare and expensive, it wasn’t that strange.

        Still rocking an Xbox one with a 4tb external drive. It’s got to be going on 10 years old at this point
