So excited to consolidate my mess of drives and get a big boost to my storage.

Don't forget to back up to other additional drives!

Consolidating all your data into one drive is very convenient, but if you aren't backing it all up then it's only a matter of time until you lose everything. If you're gonna have a bunch of small drives hanging out you can use them as a backup. You could even set them up into a RAID, but I've never actually done that so i can't vouch for it

You know what, that would be a perfect mother or fathers day gift every year for any data hoarder. Happy Parity Day!

Or a great idea for a birthday parity!
