There was a post about harddrive sizes and cloud services on my dash the other day -
By all means, laptops should and more importantly could have at least 1T of harddrive space. Instead, they come with like 256Gb because the expectation is that you A) do not have files to store because you only use it for idk streaming and B) if you have files to store, you’ll be storing them in the cloud anyway.
ANYWAY
We don’t use laptops at my work, but we use these horse shit mini pcs with a similar harddrive. They’re parent company mandated and we can’t get anything else. Our IT management doesn’t see the issues with them, and for sure, if there are only one or two people using the computer they are largely fine. Company policy says you aren’t supposed to store anything in the harddrive anyway.
However, the problem we (as in my specific workplace under parent company) have is that we can easily have ten or more - up to twenty in some cases - users using the same pc. Why is this a problem?
Our computers store a profile for every user logging in. Even if you do not save anything to your profile, it’s about 6Gb.
After OC, those profiles alone can suck up half of the hd space.
Pisses me off lol
Pisses me off so bad
#our IT management also got me a work computer with a 250gb hd when specifically told i do a lot of video editing#and need to store high rez image files#i currently have 700gb of just photos#haha#anyway#also if you’re getting a lappytop for gaming purposes#please be aware that modern games suck up gb like its air#for a heavier side example WoW take up like a 100gb
