The endurance rating of an enterprise-grade 240GB SSD is ~440 TBW (total terabytes written). Which means the 6300PB on the network has landfilled so far the equivalent of 175,000 of these 240GB SSDs. For nothing.
For a ~109GB "plot" on an HDD, you need to write 1.93TB to the SSD to generate it, which is absolutely awful for the SSD - filling up a 12TB HDD will write 160TB total to...

There is a special place in hell for conference organizers (online, or otherwise) who keep spamming you WEEKS after the event has ended, especially where there is no way to unsubscribe because "yeah, y'know, kinda-sorta, we're just keeping you updated about the event *wink-wink*"
