Is it possible to have too much storage space? Not so long ago, we were carrying everything that mattered to us on 1.44MB floppy disks, and yet here we are reviewing Seagate’s latest internal hard drive that offers a tremendous 10TB of storage space.
While hard drive capacities of these sizes may at first seem excessive, there are two important things to consider. First of all, as hard drive capacities increased, so did file sizes, and that’s likely to continue. Secondly, Seagate’s IronWolf hard drives are designed for NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices that sit in the centre of your home or business network and store important files and irreplaceable backups from a number of computers.
If you have a number of computers storing files, along with full backups, on the drive, storage space can disappear fast. The Seagate IronWolf is therefore not the type of hard drive you’re likely to just slap into a single desktop computer.
If 10TB still feels like too much space, you can also get the IronWolf hard drives in 1TB, 2TB, 3TB, 4TB, 6TB and 8TB capacities as well. The 10TB version will set you back £400 ($448.99, around AU$678).
