>hard drive prices are still rising

I will probably never be able to afford hard drives, there's no point in backing up stuff I collected for year, let it all burn.

my advice? Buy fish.
You buy a tank and buy some fish and do that.
It's much better.

The cloud has infinite space. I have 250mb/s of upload bandwidth. Offline Cold storage is a thing from the past to be honest.

Stupid niggercattle...
If you want to backup permanent data, use optical discs.

Nice. I actually ended saving both!

On the topic:
I bought a used WD Gold 10TB helium drive for 100€ a few months ago, so rising prices are of no concern to me.
It's actually more than I need, since I just have to back up 2x 4TB SSDs.

This is actually the answer.
When one thing gets this expensive, the real solution is to move to another thing that isn't.
I've zero interest in throwing my personal cash into the fire of AI craze. I have enough hardware to last me until it passes. Until then I'll work on other topics.
