    It’s definitely the hard drives. A 1tb SSD is about $150, and can definitely get you far, but it’s never far enough

      I use a 1 TB and a 2 TB ssd for temporary storage, sorting and transcoding. But for permanent storage, HDDs are the way to go if you want a lot.

        A single bluray movie will run around 50GB and full TV shows can easily be 100s of GBs.
