I'd be curious to know if and how he was able to store 50TB @ home while avoiding being a disorganized pack-rat?

- nickff 10y agoAll it would take is a few network attached storage devices with high-capacity 3.5" drives. If you have 8 drives per NAS, and each drive is 4 TB, you only need 2 NAS to store data with no redundancy or RAID 5, and 3 or 4 NAS for more redundancy. P.S. 6 TB drives are now very common, and 8TB drives are widely available, but more expensive.
