Man, I remember when someone on reddit got mad upvotes for saying “5tb hard drives don’t exist” in response to me, as the external 5tb hdd I was using sat 2ft away from me.
And here we are looking at the [BRAND] advertisement for 120TB drives.
I remember when I got my forst 120gb drive. I happily installed it on my win 2k and… bios didn’t like it, OS didn’t like it and read its capacity wrong. I forget if I used windows or linux but after I cut the drive into 2x60gb it worked great
I’m pretty sure they were referring to how the more common sizes are 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, 12 TB and so on. 6 is semi-common. 5 is relatively rare, so they probably didn’t realize they exist.

Come on man, 120gb HDDs don’t exist!
Well, they don’t exist. (yet)
Do you mean “anymore”?

And any 8TB disk with bad blocks makes a fine 5TB disk.
I own a couple of 5TB drives. At the time when 8TB and above were rare and expensive, it wasn’t that strange.
Still rocking an Xbox one with a 4tb external drive. It’s got to be going on 10 years old at this point
