Yeah, right. Then why the hell doesn’t it know where I parked the damn car??
That’s a lot of space for all the bs I seem to have collected so far. Feel like this hard drive needs a good Defrag though
Ha, AWS look out..
I feel like the comparison doesn’t really work. It’s like asking how many megapixels Kodachrome film was. You can come up with some numbers, but what you’re really saying is that you need so many megapixels in order to have a digital image with the same detail level as Kodachrome. The actual amount of pixels in Kodachrome is, of course, 0. And the actual number of bytes of information in the human brain is 0.
So… storing 320 Gb of PharmaCom data shouldn’t be a problem, even without a doubler… right?
All that free space and I still can’t find my keys
