How much for 100TB of drives $1500 How much for 100TB of NVME $10,000 Yes I still use hard drives in my threadripper servers and NAS.

My 20TB zfs mirrored NAS. I'm not buying 40TB of ssds in this economy.

HDDs are great for self-hosted apps. I own a NAS with three WD 16TB HHDs amd 2M. 2 SSDs.

I do, I didn't really need to spend 3-4x the money for my server storage and regular HDDs are fast enough for media streaming. 6x18tb would've been unnecessarily expensive as SSDs

Backblaze, for one (remote backup and storage service). They buy *masses* of spinning rust drives to provide large amounts of remote storage at low prices. (They also publish reliability statistics, and do a quarterly report on reliability of various drive types, which is useful).
