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?

Asustor LockerStor 10 with 12x 20TB Seagate Exos X20 (2 reserved as spare drives).

Clocked in around $6500 for everything, but totally worth it.
