  My Jellyfin is 6 times that… And my PC is double that… Seriously, this person thinks 5TB is a lot? Don’t we have SD Cards/Flash Drives this big now? I’d be WAY more concerned about the bandwidth requirements.

    its still not a small amount of storage. and no, there’s still not really sd cards or flash drives bigger than 1tb, but obviously that would never suffice as server storage. plus, if you’re hosting a node you’d want at least 4 or 5 times that storage to use a raid 6 array + at least one onsite backup, and one off-site backup.

    now we’re talking thousands of dollars in equipment just for storage, not the actual server itself, internet connection, etc.

      You literally just described my Jellyfin, minus the raid because I don’t feel like setting it up. Think all in all I’m down about $1200 for it. Not thousands. You do realized a 12TB NAS drive is $200, right? Only reason my build cost as much is because I have a few 2TB ssds in there which were just leftovers from the PC anyways. I could’ve done it all for $500.

      Off-site backup isn’t required. Nice, but not required at all. In the literal sense, you don’t need it. It’s good to have, but an extra.

      So yeah, 5TB, literally the only metric I was discussing, isn’t much. Maybe in the future the person should say all the nuance and not “5TB is unreasonable for the average person”. It’s not. Plain and simple.

        maybe your hobbies server doesn’t need a off-site backup but an instance of a massive social media network expected to be used by many users absolutely will. and sorry, but your nas simply will not cut it as far as throughput goes. it’s just not designed for that much activity.

      There are actually 2tb microSD cards now, and 4tb flash drives

    your home computers would probably not have the reliability or the disk performance required to run it.
