I'm intrigued.

I think it's just mean-spirited... I mean we're all friends here...

I turned my old Dell desktop into a Unraid server. 4 disks inside.
  • (1) 2TB for parity
  • (2) 2TB storage
  • (1) 1TB storage

My shares are roughly as follows (and always growing):
  • Movies: 2.87 TB
  • TV Shows: 691 GB
  • Music: 272 GB
  • Home Videos (from HD camcorder, smartphones, etc.): 310 GB
  • Pictures: 38 GB
  • Documents: 32 GB

As soon as a good deal pops up for a 2TB internal, I plan to start using the 1TB drive as a cache drive, and install SAB, SB, CP, etc on the Unraid server. Wink

Nope. Something better, and that's all I can say. Angel

The first rule of "something better" is you don't talk about "something better"
The second rule of "something better" is YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT "SOMETHING BETTER"!!

A quick search says he uses a seedbox and some sort of scripting with it.

My WHS2011 build consists of:

Lian-Li PC-Q08B
ASUS E35M1-I motherboard
4GB RAM
1 x 64GB SSD (OS)
2 x 2TB Samsung HD204UI
1 x 2TB Seagate
1 x 1.5TB WD Caviar Green
1 x 1TB Seagate

So, total of 4.5TB available for media, recorded TV, documents, etc. and 3TB available for backups (I do not backup recorded TV).

I am not much of a media collector, preferring to watch once and return. The exception is kids' stuff which is most of the MKVs/DVDs.

a RAID1 NAS-Server that grows with the content, no back-ups for movies / music (most are tv recordings and are repeated all the time by the tv-stations...), then I have riped my good old cd/dvd/br collection to have direct access to it, so no need for back-ups there too (I still have all the original media). Anyway, a drive crash cannot hurt me, because of the mirroring - I am too lazy to recreate my collection in case of a drive crash - mirroring is a little more expensive than raid5, but also faster, more reliable and easier to reconstruct and grow (no striping, just add drive pairs with the maximum capacity available when needed).

However all private stuff (fotos, videos etc ) is backed-up frequently to dvd's and on a second storage, because there is no chance to recreate the content when lost.

I run a 2TB raid1 for movies and a 2TB raid1 for TV shows in a computer running OpenMediaVault NAS software. I also have a 2TB external HDD for backup.

I'm currently at 4tb Movies / 2,5tb TV stuff (hello Sickbeard) / 50gb Music.
As for backups - i'm pretty much relying on the single drive failure resistance of unraid (technically unstriped RAID4)

I'm interested to see how much better than a decent usenet set up it is.


My only back up of Movies and TV Shows are the parity drives.
