my argument is just to provide redundancy. we do not need additional local redundancy because the data is out there. it would be a problem if my copy or your copy somehow becomes the only copy. then we would be concerned.
this says INR 11,000.00 which is $137.raw 100 would need around 18 so $2500.
i think there can be variations of disk sizes and amazon fluctuations but in cases like these i would have a business buy them because that way input tax of 18% would pass on to the business and conversely to me for lowering the final bill. so, $2118 would be for these drives. same for the server. a tax benefit of 18%.
Huh. I seriously need to graph the size vs price thing and figure out where the sweet spots are. I last did that sort of thing a few years ago, got completely out of the game. I just googled a bit and discovered 18TB drives are a thing and went and looked for those. lol
I guess you're right about not needing local redundancy... although this is very much at odds with the "disk is over 500GB, redundancy required!!11" beeper in my head :D
