I don’t know if a Windows 95 machine could even address a terabyte.
Or that Nevada had hurricane building codes. The windows were also shot out.

This is a sloppy meme that does more harm then good. Stick to the facts people!
Another example of some truth presented with some falsehood with the result of destroying the credibility of ALL of the information along with the credibility of anyone who passes this along.
Rat poison, the devil's specialty. Just takes a little bad blended with the more prevalent good.
Hurricane rating is just a wind speed rating.
Its an impact rating, not a wind rating.
ASTM is the body that certifies hurricane rated windows. Wind is not in the equasion:

There is a wind rated window and there is an impact rated window.
it keeps people from jumping out the windows.
I know that a windows 95 computer couldn’t hold a terabyte of anything.
I mean you could slap a $550 hard drive (22TB) into the PC case without connecting it I guess.
Yep it can support a Max of 32GB…. So not even close to the 100s of terabytes
I believe they had a 2TB max addressable file size.
Yep. FAT32 maximum size = 2TB, but may be expanded to up to 40TB with an external HDD controller. Still not "hundreds of TBs"

Incomplete information, even per that article:
For the latter bit, you would most likely need to jump through seriously pointless hoops, and if you are tech savvy enough to source the drivers needed, I am strongly of the belief that you are tech savvy enough to know that in 2017, Windows 95 is not secure in any fashion, and if you are both tech savvy and performing something that you know is illegal, you certainly would not be using Windows 95.
The number of hoops he would have to jump through to get to "hundreds of terabytes" beyond that points to either the meme being completely wrong or the frame job being so obvious that the FBI should be put into time out for being THAT incompetent.
Also, sorting through "hundreds of terabytes" of image files would take a VERY long time on top of that. It's hard enough sometimes to find specific screenshots from video games that are saved!
Oh, last (few) points:
Most Windows 95 machines have probably burnt out by now, and finding old components would be a near impossibility without jacking the price up that collectors would pay for nerding out.
That leaves running Win. 95 on a virtual machine (not likely) or jumping through a ton more hoops still to get it to function on a modern day computer, like limiting RAM speeds and capacities, getting the OS to recognize and use your CPU which isn't likely to be super easy even with Intel's compatibility due to the fact that no 95 drivers have existed for an Intel product for like, at LEAST a decade. Probably longer. Then you also have GPU driver compatibility problems, modern display resolutions.
It's honestly such a shit show to get such an old operating system to function somewhat properly on modern hardware that it doesn't make sense that anyone would be doing it.
The simplest answer is likely to be the correct one: Frame job.
Well stated.
Totally improbable that he would even be using that antiquated OS, or if he was, it would be the exact wrong tool to house tons of CP.
This whole episode reeks of a cover up. Unfortunately, we have a complicit media which acts as an arm of the CIA/DNC, and does not work to get to the truth.
No. 32 GB. 137 GB for 98. I don't believe that we had capabilities to even have enough disks in a home PC back then to reach a terabyte with those limitations, and I'm not sure we could even successfully partition a series of drives to those specifications, you'd run out of drive letters.
This is basically so non-feasible that it's actually really funny to think about.
Even on a modern day PC, our largest hard drives are, like, 22TB. And those drives are like $500. So this dude would have invested literally likely ten thousand dollars into a Windows 95 PC on storage alone, but never even upgraded to, oh..Windows XP?
Come the fuck on.
