> The dataset, which allegedly contains more than 10 petabytes of sensitive information

> Cyber security experts who have reviewed the data say the group is offering a limited preview of the alleged dataset, for thousands of dollars, with full access priced at hundreds of thousands of dollars

at $10 per TB that would be $100k for storage

> An account calling itself FlamingChina posted a sample of the alleged dataset on an anonymous Telegram channel

Thinking you're anon on Telegram in the big 2026? There are real places to hawk this data. Sounds like BS

10$/TB on what planet?

I don't think even something like ipfs or whats that crypto that pays you for storage and bandwidth? storj? (if that even is still a thing?) has 10PB

You can get 5$/TB on shit like Wasabi but the data could only be pulled once or the bill would be in the hundreds of millions and they would absolutely notice 10PB of data on a single user account

Not any less than Toshiba, which is very quickly becoming a very enterprise-driven drive

I replaced My "I can stand to lose this" array with Seagate EXOS enterprise drives that were pulls from dells with <10 hours power on time for dirt fucking cheap. Somebody dumped hundreds of them on the market at the same time around ~180 USD each so I blew my load on them. Everything I care about is on an array of HGST helium drives. I've never lost one of those, lost tons of WD and only one seagate personally

edit: forgot the drive failure chart

tfw had a maxtor diamondmax 20GB drive, that thing was so slim and quiet compared to everything else. it was wild time back then man

Seagate has caught up and exceeded expectations. WD is having a lot of issues and lest we forget the CMR/SMR bullshit

Back then the only place in my home town was a city over at a military surplus hilariously enough. My parents bought us an IBM (at the time their canadian brand of the Aptiva was called Ambra) full black vcr pizza-box shaped desktop with a cyrix media GX processor in it. within a week or two of the warranty expiring the CPU died so we went out to the city to the surplus and they tested the CPU and then took it and a screw and screwed it to one of the joists near the test bench and said "you need a new CPU" and to this day it's still screwed to that joist. I remember that day like it was yesterday and I was like 8 or 9 at the time, Cyrix MediaGX 266
