    My one question would be “How?”

    What the hell are you doing that your hard drives are overheating? How do you even know it’s overheating as I’m like 90% certain hard drives (except NVMe if we’re being liberal with the meaning of hard drive) don’t even have temperature sensors?

    The only conclusion I can come to is that everything he’s saying is just bullshit.

      They have temp sensors. But have never heard of a overheating drive.

          Can we think of any device someone might have that would struggle with 60k? Certainly an ESP32 chip could handle it fine, so most IoT devices would work…

            Unless the database was designed by someone who only knows of data as that robot from Star Trek, most would be absolutely fine with 60k rows. I wouldn’t be surprised if the machine they’re using caches that much in RAM alone.

            Right? There’s no part of that xeet that makes any real sense coming from a “data engineer.”

            Terrifying, really.
