Legally purchased media still exists? I thought every store in the world had closed down because you might distribute the music you buy, or you might reverse engineer that refrigerator and sell copies on the black market.
This is obviously not meant for you then.
For those of us looking for massive storage, this is nice.
You want fast? You want SSD in raid as your primary.
Don't buy it.
Don't really need to hear your pointless complaints about it either.
