All of which is easy to look back and say. Nobody knew what was going to win out at the time. The Moto X was great for its size and customizability for the price (as in you could literally change the colors), the G was a budget phone that also offered customization.

And you’re mistaken, the Moto X had multiple different sizes starting at 16GB. I had the 32GB developer edition myself.

… and exactly 2 weeks later modders will have figured out how to get their hands on the yummy free unlimited data inside it.

Link was dead for me as soon as I tried it.

Has no one mentioned shucking yet? I’ve had 8 shucked drives in my server for 5yrs now and the motherboard died before any of my drives did.

Buy western digital external drives (MyBook and Passports) to tear them apart for the white-label drives on the inside. No warranties after you start using them (unless you save the enclosures to send them back) but they’re essentially the same drive as the red label NAS drives for about half the price.

All storage prices are insane in the current market but if you’re careful and test the drives before you use them (since that’s when you usually need the warranty) then you shouldn’t have a problem. Just be aware you’re either going to need to use the “kapton tape trick” or buy “SAS drive adapters” from your online store of choice for about $10 apiece to allow the drives to power on outside of the enclosure.

lol how much have you been paying them?
