Storage solutions - eviltoast

For someone who wants to maintain a library of movies, I see the first two links in movies megathread total to 34TB worth of content.

What type of storage solutions do you folks use or recommend for large movie collections like this?

Do you have server racks? Which ones would you recommend?

    Well it definitely checks for updates, and it has services for finding nas for dummies that use outside communications. My router policy doesn’t allow it to talk to the outside, but certain docker containers hosted on the nas can access internet via raspberry pi proxy

    Occasionally I let it update then close it off again.

      Right, and all of these are optional or block-able. I guess it depends on the use case.

      But, like others suggested, you could also go the custom nas way. That way it’s completely under your control.
