I'm more paranoid about losing data.

All the computers in my house back up automatically to a network attached mirrored/raid storage device that also houses the family's photo, music and home video collection (we don't collect movies). All of that is then encrypted and sent to the cloud. All in all, I have about 5 terabytes of stuff in the cloud.

Legit cloud storage services I'd imagine use industrial grade hardware with top class redundancy and preventive maintenance, because their reputation relies on maintaining your data.

Some data centers are going to higher temp environments; cheaper to run backups and replace dead drives than cool a data center lol

Try it if you can! Play any console game on PC that is built for high end and you'll be amazed at graphics and everything! Runs amazing! If only my monitor were better though.

Sorry you read it backwards....

PC gaming > Console any day of the week.

I for the most part only play PC games. I only play consoles when absolutely forced to...too many years playing keyboard, then keyboard/mouse to ever be able to be effective with a controller.


It's the controller that's well, just wrong, but that's my own personal hang-up.

I used to think that, but there's many things consoles do exceptionally well. I go back and forth, but right now my PC isn't doing much gaming at all lately, it's all on the PS4. Same with kb/mouse vs controller, saying one is always better than the other is a little shortsighted. Embrace the everythings! I have a XB1 controller for my PC for some games, Dark Souls for instance, and virtually anything third person.
