I have a 1 TB external SSD, for storage. What could I possibly do with one that holds 60 or 100 TB's?!? No clue.

Don't we all :)

Nah, that's the first thing that goes through my mind when I see a huge drive - a lot of eggs in one basket and a fair amount of pain when it fails, even if it's backed up.  "And poof it was gone..."

It would probably be a refreshing change from rummaging through a dozen drives constantly though,

Easily solved with Storage Spaces, ReFS, and drive mirroring.  I have a test going on right now with some old spindle drives, and the result is quite amazing.

Nice, but I still have 5.6TB's out of 7TB's still unused. I can't see any home used ever needing that much storage. Good for the government and big business though.

 

Hell, I used to think 40MB's was huge back in the day!  :-"

If you work with high resolution multitrack audio files (or UltraHD video), they are almost necessary. It doesn't take very long to use up a terabyte for recording audio; video would be even  worse.

For people that make photographs with high end gear it would make sense, considering the file size of uncompresssed raw in 42mp - each file 81,6mb.
A 30TB SSD would hold around 370.000 pictures  and thats only RAW format, i use to shot RAW and JPG.
