Re:Samsung crams 30TB of SSD into a single 2.5-inch drive by kaybe on Tuesday February 20, 2018 @03:42PM (#16423999)
I wonder how many of us have onion shells of data on their harddrives.

Being lazy means to just copy the full old drive onto the new one, including images of nested older drives.

I used to have a directory oldstuff and newstuff. When I got a new hard drive, I'd copy the entirety of the old disk into the "new" oldstuff. I think I got 6 layers before I decided to ditch that advanced sorting method.

I have deeply deeply nested folders named "Desktop mess" from several decades worth of migrating MacOS hard drives and computers... I _mostly_ do a better job with complete drive images though... I do have a shelf full of drives that got taken out and archived when Time Machine filled them up (all of which I went carefully hunting through when bitcoin hit $10,000 and kept going up...)
