A 1U rack with 20 of such drives can hold over 1.2 PB of data per rack unit, which greatly optimizes server space. A single rack can accommodate up to 44.2 PB with this setup, achieving a 67% increase in density compared to traditional 2U racks that hold 'only' 26.5 PB.
Those are some insane numbers.
If you've got that kind of dosh, you should definitely do it and then back up the internet archive.
internetarchive.org currently is storing 145 PB. So you'd need only 4 of these track units would backup the entire internet archive
You would need a setup that supports the E3.S form factor. I can't imagine this being cheap unless you can procure 2nd hand hardware.
Oh yeah. I'm guessing the drives themselves are going to cost something like $10,000 a piece. Maybe more.
If you've got 250 Grand to drop on ssds then adding in $10,000 for the server that can run them is not that big of a spend
Imagine all the porn you could save on that.
