Re:Ask HN: How would you store 10PB of data for your startup... by sireat on Saturday April 24, 2021 @04:08AM (#26923189)
Reading: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/open-source-data-storage-serv... it seems the drives are included.

That 10.3k includes drives but you have to assemble the pod yourself.

For 12.8k you get drives and assembled pod from 3rd party manufacturer.

Backblaze pays about 8.7k at a scale for the whole enchilada

Those numbers do not make sense if we exclude drives. The server itself is not that expensive(2-3k tops) without the drives.
