We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

they've barely moved in 4+ years though
I've got a Samsung 970 evo 1tb for 99 EUR in 2020. Last week (2023) I've a Kingston KC 3000 2TB for the same price.
This is not what I call "barely moved".
depends on your area
I've bought a used Crucial MX500 250GB for 30€ in 2019.
Last week I got a Crucial MX500 1TB for 45€.
I can get a 2TB for below double-price but I only need 1 TB and I read that it has a different build with lower speed (lower TLC, smaller DRAM or something, I don't know).
Exactly 4 years and certainly not barely moved.
they're near 100€ here, but sure, 250gb was 100€ 10 years ago.
