@campuscodi I feel like this snaps the trap shut on consumers. You'll get your storage from an AI vendor in the cloud or you won't get it at all. And because you can't afford your own backup media, you'll pay what they ask and compromise however they want.

@campuscodi The dip will be spectacular. Until now I'd assumed the demand for NVME SSDs was killing SAS/SATA stuff, and we'd come out of this with entire consumer markets dead. If the full spectrum of hardware is supported by funny money there could be a silver lining once DCs start selling stuff.
@campuscodi I’m also worried for WD’s share price when half those companies cease to exist before the orders ever ship.
@campuscodi ffs...
... this circle jerk of a circus in acquiring real hardware with make believe money is... quite the circus.
Would be nice if we can restore this timeline to a previously recorded snapshot, no?
