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 store contents on 128GB BDXL Blu Ray discs, I like to have all the media easily accessible and don't want to degrade anytime I play it. If its larger than that I will put in on an SSD.

Synology 4 bay with SHR1 (1 disk failure) 12TB usable space.

With some USB disks lying around with unimportant data.

I only have a two bay NAS with 10 TB of ~~RAM~~ storage which I filled years ago lol.

Currently depending on solutions like Cloudstream and Stremio (honorable mention to Kodi with streaming add-ons).

10TB of RAM? Surely that's a typo?

I've got x2 2tb drives plugged into a dock. When they were getting full, I questioned why I was keeping half the stuff. With 100mb internet (some may laugh at that speed lol) there's no need to keep an abundance of easy to gets. I tend to keep only the hard to get or favourite stuff.

I personally only store things that are hard to get again. Things like obscure domestic TV and really old movies. If it's something I can get again easily then I watch and delete.

14tb in my server as JBOD with 20tb in external drives for backups and some change for any extras.
