After an over 12-year run, Apple has discontinued the 27-inch iMac

Which upgrades are worth it for the Mac Studio
My biggest gripe is putting every thing on one internal drive.
It's not very UNIX smart.
I would prefer a smaller OS only drive and multiple data drives.
I would also like them all mirrored (disk arrays).
That's how I always build a unix server - redundancy is simpler and faster than icloud backups.
But, I backup, too.
I have a large legacy of archives I need to keep accessible and constantly migrating it to newer media.
Remember when we thought CD's would be a long term storage solution ? I can't even read some of them any longer.
Stuff I put on the iCloud was lost, even at Apple's first cloud storage (Mobile ? - can't remember what it was called).
Huge photo albums I created and carefully annotated files, lost with move to Photos.
Heartless, cruel Marketing people....
There is nothing worse than a single point of failure - and one big SSD is exactly that.
