    Sounds like an ex employee using it as a remote plex/jellyfin drive 😳

    I have no idea how an accounting agency can consume 50TB of cloud storage… maybe 50k customers with a 1GB excel each? Would a spreadsheet that big even open?

      I’ve worked with dozens of large financial firms, and even the largest databases don’t come close to this size. There is either some kind of insane media storage happening or the guy doesn’t know the difference between a GB and TB.

        I work in science computing and 50 TB is more than some bioinformatics work uses. There’s no way the person in the article actually uses that much.
