For someone who wants to maintain a library of movies, I see the first two links in movies megathread total to 34TB worth of content.

What type of storage solutions do you folks use or recommend for large movie collections like this?

Do you have server racks? Which ones would you recommend?

    I have a Synology NAS with 4x 12 TB Seagate IronWolf Pro drives (one drive as redundancy), as well as 2x 500 GB WD Red SN700 SSD caches. I also upgraded the RAM from 4 to 12 GB, so it can run more services in parallel without chocking. The total cost was about 1500€ for a little less than 36 TB usable disk space and imo very nice performance.
