https://blog.stuffedcow.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/mk8034gsx-bench-360x256.png
Modern hard drives store an incredible amount of data in a small space, and are still the default choice for high-capacity (though not highest-performance) storage. While hard drives have been around since the 1950s, the current 3.5″ form factor (actually 4″ wide) appeared in the early 1980s. Since then, the capacity of a 3.5″ drive has increased by about 106 times (from 10 MB to about 10 ...

Security through obscurity is not bad

https://mobeigi.com/_next/image/?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fsecurity-through-obscurity-door-key-examples.webp&w=3840&q=100
Echo is wrong about security through obscurity being redundant, as it can still provide an additional layer of security by making it harder for attackers to find vulnerabilities. Obscurity can be an effective deterrent, as it increases the time and money attackers must spend to find and exploit vulnerabilities.
