    The spinny kind. Until they stop go go spinny and then I get new bigger and sometimes better spinny drives.

    I have such a smorgasbord of drives. Bunch of 2.5" firecudas 1-2tb, old 1tb drives, thrift store external, shucked 8tb baracudas, new bare disk 8tb barracuda, 4tb HGST NAS, 8tb Ironwolf and more I’m sure.

    FWIW, the Ironwolf is really nice and I wish all my drives were them. File transfer speeds are respectable for spinning rust.
