If it’s a piece of junk, you can always rip it apart and pull out the magnets and use the rest for target practice.

If it’s a nice drive keep it in your computer for Media Storage / Game Storage.

Buy a small board computer (RPi or something similar) and turn it into a NAS on your local network.

Use it as a backup drive for your main drive/documents.

Things will slowly grow if we all stick with Lemmy though. It’s really just a matter of time until it reaches a critical mass.

Sounds like we need to comment more to me. Great work all around!
