Last June, fans of Comedy Central – the long-running channel behind beloved programmes such as The Daily Show and South Park – received an unwelcome surprise. Paramount Global, Comedy Central’s parent company, unceremoniously purged the vast repository of video content on the channel’s website, which dated back to the late 1990s.

    If you have an m.2 slot, 2tb drives are cheap and don’t worry about it for a while

    Edited: I originally absent mindedly said 2gb, meaning 2tb

      Are cheap

      Yeah, right. I know they’re cheaper than they were but they can’t be that cheap.

      finds a high-speed 2tb m.2 from Kingston (a brand I trust) for £120

      I stand corrected.

        Do you have desktop or laptop?
        For desktop, I recommend getting an HDD for storage. They’re cheaper, I bought a 4tb Seagate Ironwolf for less than 100€.
        I also have a 1tb nvme, where I store things that require fast reads like my gaming collection while the system is installed in an SSD. (The parts were not bought at the same time). For laptop, you might want to stick to what you have inside and just get a good external USB. The usual brands are still good and I think prices have flatten across the industry.
