I still use spinning external drives for storage, and everything is backed up in triplicate. I just don't like the sluggishness of a computer with a HDD as the primary drive. They're putting Optane memory now in a lot of machines, and from everything I've read, it really speeds things up if you're using a HDD. Most older machines can't use it.
I am planning to replace my mid-2010 iMac later this year with either a fully loaded iMac or an iMac Pro. It doesn't make sense to put money into what will become dedicated to logging my ham radio contacts once I get the new computer.
