Yes, that's another Urban Legend.
Disk DRIVES are cheap, disk SPACE is not so cheap.
Consider this example: I have a disk cabinet with 24 slots and 23
disks. The 24th disk is cheap, but how much does the 25th disk cost? In
addition to the disk drive we need a cabinet, controllers, cache, host
adapters, cables, floor space, environmental controls, installation,
configuration, management, maintenance contract, and on and on.
