For a piracy-oriented community I’m surprised this isn’t discussed as much.

Do you ever store media, or delete them after watching? How do you store them?

I personally have 12TB worth of hard drives (3x4TB) in a JBOD configuration. Been wanting to upgrade my hard drives (they’re 6 years old) but I’m still a little skeptical of the helium drives and whether they will last…

    I used to store all my music on an HDD but the more, I thought about it. The less I did it. Still have about 68GB of music but won’t continue doing so. Don’t really keep movies or TV Shows stored, as I know, I will watch them once and then never again - Same thing for games.

    Perhaps I will in the future when I can actually afford decent HDD/SSD’s. I’m curious how other do it.

      Storage space isn’t as big a problem for music - for me, tv shows are the main issue.

      I like to rewatch shows a lot in the background - I like having The Office or How I Met Your Mother on while i’m doing chores or something, so I have a lot of shows stored. It takes a lot of HDD space, but I also don’t have to pay for 3 different streaming services just to watch 3 shows
