This is how I have felt recently, specifically when it came to purchasing a new phone. I would think that these super-sized drives will cater more toward creatives who have to work with large amounts of audio and video content.
Much more than any creatives will be the use of these for all sorts of "big data" projects, from AI training to mass-spying to science. All of these fields have a bottomless appetite for data storage that will eat up these drives like candy.
