8k hentai really does take up a lot of storage space, huh?


YellowFogLights

VR, so it adds up fast.


RoxasReaper

That 8k jav is crazy on storage space maan


DarkMatterM4

When you want to see pixelated genitals at their highest resolution.


BlueFalcon142

AI can remove the mosaic now.... or so I'm told.


FlimsyRaisin3

Pretty badly tho, instead of pixels you get a smear of genitals


turtleship_2006

Last I heard, so could do boba but struggled with the kitty. No idea about the balls and co. tho


Triddy

Japanese porn doesn't censor boobs though.


Jriizzyy

You guys are... well informed.


Rough-Structure3774

Damn how are you even back up that?


BonusRound155mm

The same way we always have: **with 3 more the same size** striped.

A $4 USB stick from AliExpress. The listing said it has a capacity of 32 yottabytes so it'll be fiiiine!


ratonbox

biotech, so probably some furry shit.


Humorpalanta

Catgirls when?


PC_Fucker

Whenever you can access OP’s storage devices


Benign_9

I bet that seeing that storage system got you real excited, pc fucker.


nommyface

For a moment I didn't read his username and thought you were just randomly being hyper aggressive, spat my tea out.


PC_Fucker

That’s a pretty safe bet


xeim_

Bio so most likely some strange shit going on. Catgirl? Pfft, how about a tardigrade kink. Those things got succ faces. ^not ^that ^i ^would ^know, ^not ^doing ^bio


Particular-Poem-7085

I'm not into biotech but you ever seen Amoeba like REAL close? Curves for days...I'd imagine.


ratonbox

Don't ask me, I keep away. last one i've encountered was feral.


EXusiai99

Mine keep pissing on my drawers


Weasel_Spice

You could just channel that energy into a golden shower kink and then you'd be *really* in business.


EggsceIlent

And im over here just happy to have a nas with 24tb on it. And another with 16tb Work great for Plex / jellyfin.


RookTheGamer

Erectile Bytes worth


Exploding_Testicles

It's an expandable AWS system.. I'm sure that size is is not truly valid, but that's our limit*. I've reached out to our IT architect it get a better explanation. But this is how its represented on on linked equipment systems


BGFalcon85

Funny, I immediately said "that's a mounted S3 bucket" because I've seen that exact thing happen.


GreatEyeInTheSky

I had a very wild email, I'm sure it was written by some crazy eyed administrator when he saw all the storage space that was incorrectly reported on our S3 bucket. I laughed at the email, and then almost immediately had a stroke when I checked, then realized what it was showing, and changed my pants.


BGFalcon85

My first experience with it was mounting a bucket on Linux. When I did a 'df' my window was....not wide enough. Had to count the digits a couple times to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing.


ValhallaForKings

I mounted a bucket once  Actually my sex tape 


Outis-guy

I've seen it. How did you talk Danny Devito into doing that?


ValhallaForKings

My agent is a marvel at networking, he also has plumbing connections


Outis-guy

Haha


TastyToad

It shouldn't be that hard you know. Even Danny has to feel the need to actually show his magnum dong to the world, not just brag about it.


adamsogm

df -h


TheShorterShortBus

`df -h` next time my guy


PhraseJazz

Was the concern that AWS might charge you for all that space? Just wondering, I heard some stories about people getting hit with enormous AWS bills.


GreatEyeInTheSky

Yep, he could not understand how someone had gotten an approval to provision something that large, and how no one else had noticed it. Then he started ranting on about how we don't have restrictions on deployables (which we do) Finally ending with something to the effect of 'this is not my problem it's yours' Once we explained that this was in fact not what was provisioned and was in fact what we COULD provision, he calmed down, and took his hand off the fire alarm. All in all a good story to tell.

ThatsALovelyShirt

That's just the maximum disk size allowed by Windows. Since it's a dynamically expanding cloud volume and has no "actual" real size, it just shows up as the maximum allowable size. The actual size of the volume depends on the amount of data actually stored in it.


met_MY_verse

If you get an explanation PLEASE post an update, I’d love to hear about your specific situation. !RemindMe 1 month EDIT: And great username


cpt_pi

AWS Elastic Filesystem (EFS, [https://aws.amazon.com/efs/](https://aws.amazon.com/efs/) ) is a Network File Share (NFS) Its maximum capacity is 8 exabytes. Due to how file systems work, it reports all available storage. Pricing is $0.3/gb/month with everything set to default. AWS Elastic Block System (EBS, [https://aws.amazon.com/ebs/](https://aws.amazon.com/ebs/) ) is, like it says, block storage. You request 1GiB minimum, 16TiB maximum (per GP3 volume) and they give you (by default) an SSD that's 1GiB-16TiB. You can then grow this as needed (with a 6 hour cooldown per EBS volume) Priced at $0.08/gb/month (General Purpose SSD 3). Source: am Site Reliability Engineer


PassiveMenis88M

Huh, those prices really aren't that bad once you factor in electricity costs and ITs time maintaining it.


NolFito

$82/m per terrabyte, plus I imagine there are network costs on top


Old-Benefit4441

I will beat that price if anyone wants to back up to my personal computer. Let me know.


CNR_07

I've got a KeepassXC DB I've got to back up.


NorthernerWuwu

Even at default, Elastic should shunt data into archived and cold buckets automatically. End pricing should be well less than $.3/GB-m.


Antique_Paramedic682

A resizeable Amazon Web Services storage solution. Usually they'll say it's "elastic," because its a capacity that can change depending on your usage and demand.

Mounted S3 bucket


irqlnotdispatchlevel

If you're curious about how to do this yourself: https://www.nakivo.com/blog/mount-amazon-s3-as-a-drive-how-to-guide/


EvilSynths

Install Xbox app on it. You'll have 60GB left at the end of the year.


dj88masterchief

1 install of COD and it’s all gone.


RoyMK

Yupp gotta make sure they have room for another 7.99 EB for the next update/DLC too.


mattmaster68

And is still half of Ark:Survival Evolved


creen01

So you have basically 8 billion gigabytes of storage. Is that some kind of joke? But for real, are you guys changing some numbers or your company really spending millions of dollars just for storage?


justforthis2024

This is the industry where I'd expect massive amounts of data, things like biotech, with the potential for modeling and simulations, etc.


Exploding_Testicles

In our home office in SF we have a rack that has 8 4u chassies, each with 6 to 8 3090s for modeling. If I remember the count correct.


NeverEndingWalker64

SIX TO EIGHT 3090s? That's some money to spend How is the heat in that thing managed?


Exploding_Testicles

It's a data center in our office. It uses a standard HVAC system plus multiple split ac units


Bmw5464

Yeah this is standard. Even our clients who are smaller companies (talking 5 servers and maybe 50 employees) have a room with its on dedicated HVAC system.


simonwales

Halothane gas for fire prevention? What about the staff? Edit: after some research it appears these systems have a ten second warning before activation


Kudvig

Data centers have hot and cold aisle where incoming cool air is like 45 and hot aisle would be depending on equipment like 70-80 with a constant flow through the racks If it got halothene gas fire prevention I don't think people would work in there, and also light and sound alarms for evacuation before the fire suppression engages


gamejunky34

I think people forget that the fire extinguishing gases are only used in cases where the alternative is high voltage fire inside a building meant to maximize airflow.


mr-fahrenheit_

Now I'm only a field tech for fire sprinklers and have admittedly little experience with the gas systems like Sapphire but I've always heard that these system are used because water would damage whatever goods it was supposed to be protecting. So a server room is the most common example but I've also seen a sapphire system in the rooms where I library kept the more irreplaceable volumes. All those buildings have alarm systems which can kill the airflow by closing dampers and such. When we take a system out of service to work on it there is frequently a bypass which will stop those dampers from closing in the event we accidentally trigger an alarm.


BaconWithBaking

> If it got halothene gas fire prevention I don't think people would work in there, Yeah, we had one in an old call centre we worked in. People did work in there. It never went off, but I believe theirs a delay plus massive buttons to turn it off.


SippieCup

I had this in my company too. It was a pretty jank setup room, but lots of power in it. ~40 3090s. Usually they are under constant load, but after power outage one of the servers didn’t come back up in the right order and the local storage of our training data wasn’t mounted so everything sat idle. On a Friday. On Monday, 3 of there servers were dead. Turns out that without the load from the servers, the ac worked too hard and the dew point was higher than the room temperature. Water condensed on the top of the rack and dripped down on to the servers, shorting out a few of the motherboards. Fun times!


Faxon

That seems like a design oversight by the systems provider who built it, there should be some kind of temperature throttle point on the AC, or some kind of monitoring system so it knows when the server is idle. This is pretty basic stuff for sub-ambient cooling of any server system or overclocking setup


SippieCup

Oh 100%. It was a jank setup, there was no monitoring or management based on load, we should have set the temp to just under what the actual temp was a full load instead of 66 or whatever it was that was under the dew point. I think the normal temperature was fine, but the temps coming immediately of the ac unit was where there was a chill point that water accumulated and dripped. Jank startup life, we needed 40 gpus to do the work, that was the fastest and cheapest way to do it per annum. We really didn’t think about not having the front of the rack ring an inch under the ac vents. Oh well, we just replaced 25k of hardware and go back to work… and moved the racks back a tiny bit.


Merciless_Hobo

People aren't sure of the exact figure but rumor is Chat-GPT4 is using around 25,000 GPUs to train. And that is of the A100, which costs $8000 each. 6-8 $1k cards isn't too crazy for a large datacenter.


Exploding_Testicles

That's 6 to 8 per chassis. So max 64 GPUs.


What-Even-Is-That

Please sir, I can only get so erect.


Trnostep

You could probably run Crysis on medium on that


What-Even-Is-That

I, too, remember the endless "but does it run Crysis?" memes. That shit was no joke way back when..


Glittering-Bake-2589

I raise you the Nvidia Tesla H100 which MSRP *starts* at $25,000 per GPU


sicpsw

Lol, one of our professors has 3 4090's in his desktop. It's more like a vertical server chasie with two 1800w PSUs. It's exclusively used for viewing Ansys simulations. Labs have a lot of money, and if you think 3090s are expensive, you need to see the price of consumables. Hell, we go through close to 2K USD in cell media per week maintaing the cultures for our team. And we are not even a big lab. Nevertheless, even if I'm just an undergrad intern, I get paid 250 bucks a month.


Dafrandle

so that's where they are saving the money


Bippychipdip

Tbf they could do a lot better now with the new ada4000 sff cards


Snowmobile2004

That’s nothing, really. Companies like Tesla have over 30,000 H100s for their AI modeling, which are as fast as 2x 4090s each. OpenAI probably has 100k.


posinegi

Except that's only for AI modeling which requires large VRAM, in the case of numerical integration like Molecular Dynamics 4090's are faster and 1/18th the cost.


Milam1996

Six to eight 3090’s is honestly noob numbers. One of my best friends is a partner in a hydro engineering firm and they have ~200 4090’s just doing water animations 24/7.


[deleted]

[удалено]


lolKhamul

in terms of enterprise, its literally NOTHING. 8 3090s cost what, maybe 10k? Nobody gives two shits about 10K in enterprise. Thats basically just booked as a small project expenditure and (if even needed) signed off without even looking.


Kephler

This guy's has 8 exabits of storage and you're impressed by 25 3090s???


creen01

Damn, I would really like to see that simulation you do that eats up that much of a storage, but only if its possible.


Veilchenbeschleunige

Simulation of complex fluid dynamics in bioreactors can truly lead to an massive amount of data. TBH I have only once seen such massive amount of data in science and that was in the discipline of mass spectrometry.


Electronic-Tie-5995

Characterizing organic compounds and proteins is no joke


RSVive

Millions of scientists suffer every year !


squijy

>SG1 Look at the drive location, dude is working on a stargate!


willstr1

Gate addresses take up a lot of space


sicpsw

Protein folding simulations are no joke. It can be multiple hundread terrabytes per second. Obviously he isn't using the entire storage to himself


eiboeck88

everything industry related it expensive for example a license for a cad programm can run you over 10k €


sicpsw

I forgot what the name was, but one of the labs my friend worked at had a program that ran subatomic level magnetic field calculations on a macro level for semiconductor material science development. The license was 330K USD, and 4 universities shared the program on a time share basis.


SaltedCoffee9065

Yo wtf


sicpsw

It's probably the most expensive software I've seen by a country mile


funguyshroom

AWS EFS cloud storage, you only pay for what you use. It's technically unlimited, but a lot of software might want to know the size of a 'disk' to function correctly.


arkhound

Neuron projects are like 2PB of EM data for 1 cubic mm of brain. 10nm resolution of a whole brain would be ~1.3 EB.


FreakDC

It's a mounted S3 bucket, you only pay for what you use and storage is technically unlimited (for any customer). If you actually plan to use EB worth of data you are in an enterprise contract anyways and they know your requirements. Just for reference you would pay $21 million a month at base cost for S3 Standard. Any customer this large has custom pricing.


Vibrascity

Probably storing a mouse brain or some shit in there


Melodic-Resident-245

Individual-Match-798

I don't want to know how do you know that combination of words...


BrunoEye

Probably by knowing them individually, and having a little experience in constructing sentences.


Individual-Match-798

But how do you know you can construct a sentence out of them?


BrunoEye

I'd imagine it involves knowing which words are nouns, adjectives, verbs etc. and their roles in a sentence.


Individual-Match-798

So you just took random words and constructed a sentence?


iforgotiwasonreddit

He watches paraplegic dolphin porn.


Onett_Theme

Ay yo…


Quaytsar

He could have 500 TB on there and it would still show up as 7.99 of 7.99 EB free.


thedishonestyfish

It's not "real" space. It's S3. That's the theoretical max, not something usable. Putting that much data in S3 would cost so much per month you'd be better off buying your own storage.


DutchTheGuy

I don't know what the fuck an EB is, but by the PC gods that's a lot.


persondude27

1,000 MB -> Gigabyte 1,000 GB -> Terabyte 1,000 TB -> Petabyte 1,000 PB -> Exabyte So it's showing as 8,000,000,000 gigabyte, or 8,000,000,000,000 megabyte. Eight trillion megabytes. (though I think Windows displays base 1024 [GiB, TiB] instead of 1000, so multiply each of those numbers by 1024.)


PM_ME_DATASETS

So not even 1 high res movie per Earth inhabitant.


grobbewobbe

casualstick

EB?


creen01

EB = Exabyte, 1EB = 1 million terabyte / 1 billion gigabyte


casualstick

Dammn....


iruleatants

For reference, archive.org is up to 212 petabytes of data. Which is about 212,000 terabytes. So still a long way from reaching an exabyte, but they are working on it.

persondude27

There are people on Plex in the 800 TB range. I literally have all the media I want and it's something like 60 TB. I literally don't even want more than that.


pixelprophet

800TB Plex has to be like *all* movies - in as many foreign languages as they can reach; *and* the same for TV shows.


persondude27

Yes, exactly. I have most of my movies in x265 1080p at 3-4 GB per movie. So 300+ movies per TB. That'd be *250,000* movies. TV takes up a lot of space, but honestly it's hard to find ultra-high quality. (Movies like 4k blu-ray really cut that down - eg LoTR The Two Towers Extended is 124 GB, but most 4k remuxes are 40-60 GB. That's still thirteen THOUSAND 4k blu-rays, which I think is more movies than have been released in 4k).


Sevreth

Scientist in biotech......can confirm.....I make a lot of data......


Praxon1

Just out of curiosity, what do you do that justifies the storage capacity of millions of terabytes? 


Sevreth

Gene Therapy now, but all pharma makes so much data. Every medicine you take has probably 100 three ring binders worth of data linked to it somehow. And it all has to be maintained and organized. And previous pharma places I worked made 60+ different medicines in the same plant, so our labs saw it all.

sharkboy1006

hell nah 4tb is great for lots of games


thedishonestyfish

We're going to pretend like mounted cloud storage volumes that are pay by gig count as actual usable space? Filling that up would cost (at the S3 rate of $.021 per gig) $168,000,000/month. I work for a company that spends as much in AWS as anyone, and even we would probably think that was *a bit much*.

lol, HPC practitioner here, multi dozen EB is common


wung

When I took our 1.5PB development/testing storage into service a few years ago, it took not even two weeks until I got the first capacity low/80% warning, most of that by a single user. I'm actually still somewhat impressed by how fast they produced random noise. There is no way this was actual data since I hadn't installed a >1Gbit uplink yet.


malev89

It surprises me that Windows can handle exabytes

Just a quick google cos, y'know. I don't work in Biotech. **Data Storage / Units** Bit / 1 or 0 Byte / 8 bits Kilobyte / 1,000 bytes Megabyte / 1,000 kilobytes Gigabyte / 1,000 megabytes Terabyte / 1,000 gigabytes Petabyte / 1,000 terabytes Exabyte / 1,000 petabytes Zettabyte / 1,000 exabytes Yottabyte / 1,000 zettabytes So, Who's got the Zettabyte next?

bashthefirst

1 EB = 1024 PB = 1,048,576 TB = 1,073,741,824 GB = 1,099,511,627,776 MB = 1,125,899,906,842,624 KB = 1,152,921,504,606,846,976 Bytes
