Hey all you beautiful selfhosters,

What are your suggestions for frugally obtaining HDDs in the current economic climate? Specifically the EU (Netherlands).

I'm looking at second hand drives, but even those go for €100+ now, with bad sectors and all.

Can we organise a collective AI datacenter robbery and doll out some stolen drives? 😁

"I mean, not allowing vpns for personal use would stop us all."

Yes and no. We'd go back to sneakernets. :)

... But that would be significantly more unpleasantly limited than the current ways of doing things...
