I currently have a 1 GB drive, and with the Windows 10, my programs, and
data I have about 300 MG on the drive. I have about 20,000 slides of
pictures taken over the last 50 years that I would like to add to the
drive. I also do a lot of genealogical research, which will add files
to the drive such as PDF books, and other documents.

From looking at the the flyers and in in computer stores, it seems like
the average size of solid state drives in new laptops is about 250GB
with a few at 300GB and 500 GB. So the new laptops will just not have
the storage I need.

How are others handling this problem with out robbing Fort Knox?


They've hit $100 for 1TB.

For comparison, a Samsung 860 Pro, with "2 bit MLC" storage, is $300.
Compare TBW rating of both products, to see how they really compare.

If you were getting three times the TBW, for three times the
price, the two items would be "equals" in a sense.
