I've been using external drives for years and would love to get rid of them now internal ones of a decent size are available
It's always been a slightly clunky experience - having to eject them before I can undock my laptop, or the way they never go to sleep (some issue with CalDigit TB dock...?)
I used to think of them as a backup, but since moving house a couple of years ago my internet is fast enough to make Backblaze viable
Next time I upgrade I'm just going to have less boxes on the desk, less power-drawing crap plugged in all the time
I hate the price of 8TB storage on these though :(
