More Power, More monitors, more realism.

Game install sizes are getting bigger and bigger. And I'm always shuffling data around and fighting for space. The better the games look, the more graphics power, CPU power, and storage we need. I really like to play games that look the best, and I need cutting edge hardware to do so.

Reliability above all else.

Smooth 4k gaming at a lower price.

More single player games with immersive stories. Sometimes I just want to explore a world without competing with someone else. I look for gear that is reliable and ergonomic. Sounds boring but I want it to feel good not just look good. Game developers need to convince the big publishers to move away from microtransactions. I spend enough money on the hardware and game itself just to have to buy more stuff to have a chance at getting some improvements before the next game in the series comes out in 12 - 18 months.

What do you want from your gaming next?
How about a little innovation? Trying something new? Especially in AAA titles. How about some new IP instead of a reboot that's the fifth sequel in a series?

What do you need in your new gear?
Well, when it comes to hard drives, better price, performance and size, simply. I'm kind of glad that mechanical HDDs are still growing in size; SSDs aren't quite accelerating in that regard fast enough. But it will be nice when solid state finally overtakes mechanicals. You wouldn't believe how many dead HDDs I've had to deal with, for customers and myself, because of damage in shipping; they're so fragile.

How should game or gear developers meet your newest demands for amazing experiences?
Reliability. See above, but also note that most of my mechanical HDDs have lasted less than 3 years on average. That's mostly Seagate with some Samsung, Toshiba, WDs and Maxtors in there. Sure, I always back everything up, but as the size of everything increases, it becomes more difficult to restore backups. Also, warranties have often returned defective refurb HDDs that lasted just a few months. Please don't do that.

What I need is a really cheap way to upgrade my now ancient computer system. AMD is looking like they are making a lot of bang for the buck so my next system is more than likely gonna be a Ryzen system

4K gaming? omg, I can't imagine how many TBs of disk space games will take up once things get to 4K or 8K and get more complicated with ray tracing.

Ugh, I know! I find that couch co-op games are particularly tough to find on the PC. Things are improving though!

[joshua.andrew.blake]

I need one!!!

 

[ivjarnold]

My most pressing concern as a creative professional today is of course storage! My videos fill up smaller drives so quickly its ridiculous and sharing the files between multiple drives with my teammates can be a real chore. With a Drive of this caliber I would be able to check that concern off my list and worry about other things... like content!
