But is it water- and EMP-proof?

Bullet-proof?

What is the thermal rating?

It wouldn't stand a second if launched directly into the sun. I'm not sure I'd call that fully rugged.

Panasonic Toughbooks can survive temperatures exceeding the core of the sun. They can also (almost) withstand the singularity of a black hole.

5TB SSD are too expensive for what you get still. Maybe when they come down a bit.

Stop what?

No reason?
What about no moving parts?
Transfer rates from 5-20 gigabits per second, depending on version and configuration?
A lifespan double that of even the best HDDs?

A 5TB hdd is more than enough for my needs, so I prefer not to spend three times the price for an sdd.

I have plenty of money. I just choose to spend it wisely. No need to go out of my way to waste money.
