I think you need to ask on Super User meta. It is clear to me that you ask about a usage scenario for drives you already have. HWrec.se is for finding hardware that conforms to specific specs, so the closure on HWrecs.se is correct. I'm not convinced closing on SU is correct but I'm not enough of a regular there to fully grasp why that question isn't suitable. That is something only their per-site meta regulars can explain to you.

Can you screenshot hardwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/14494 for us and share that as well?

If we still had too localized as close reason, that one would apply here. You don't describe a generalized problem that applies to a wide audience, your are asking for consulting on your specific case and the answers are at best entertaining for you but not for many others. Either ask for an hardware device that can sustain a strict specified workload, that can be asked on hw.se. Or "invent" a problem with your setup that you need a solution for, as that can be asked on SU. Asking us to decide for you are not a great fit for the Q/A model.

I'm sure the mod who handled it will come by and explain their reasoning.

it has an answer and if it picks up an upvote it might win the bounty. That answerer probably invested time due to the bounty. Removing that bounty does them a disservice. A bounty should only be removed if no other parties are involved.

also relevant are the Tutorial and the Database schema documentation for the public data dump and SEDE

From the On-topic page of super user: and it is not about …cell phones or smart phones and that seems to be the core of your question.

@AdamLear thanks, I've edited that in. I never looked at the logout flow but your comment raised my interest and will certainly revisit that to see it in action under the browser hood. Exciting capabilities.

I pinged a developer to confirm I got it right or that I missed some important nuance.
