Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations photobucket ransom

I'm sure it's not quite this easy and I don't know how PondBoss hosts their stuff but......



Hard drive space is as cheap as it's ever been at this point. You can get a 3 TB hard drive for about 100 bucks. Lets break that down for a sec.

There are a 1,000 Megabytes in a Gigabyte.

There are 1,000 Gigabytes in 1 Terabyte.

There are a million Megabytes in a 1 Terabyte.

Now lets say we are only allowed a max of 2 megabytes for pic per post.


That 500,000 pics minimum with the 2 meg limit and most pics are smaller than that. Mine are usually around 1 meg or less.

With a 3 Terabyte hard drive your talking 1.5 million pics pondboss could host at the 2 meg limit for around 100 dollar hard drive.

I would be more than willing to donate to help the cause if they did such a thing and let us know how much it costs I am sure a lot of us would help out.

Just a thought!! But like I said in the I.T. world I am sure it may not be quite that easy for them....
