Definitely a dad joke. I have younger cousins that don’t know what that is.
“Oh you mean like an SSD?”
“Yeah! It would go in the same 2.5 or 3.5 slot.”
“We stopped using those years ago, gramps.”
And here I am wasting my money on 24 TB obsolete HDDs when I could have just bought SSDs.
All the kids are using "the cloud" these days. Which is just a fancy proprietary server somewhere with spinning drives.
The youngest seem to be on board with a full cloud OS.
To me "the cloud" just mean you dont own your own product, not to mention the privacy issues. Spinning local HDD for me any day.
The cloud = Monthly Subscription
