Comment on Question about storage

I eventually moved to an energy-efficient PC. It has a large case and 6 SATA ports and lots of RAM. That replaced pretty much everything I had before. I try to buy the largest hdd I can afford every time I need a new one. And the old NAS and smaller harddrives get a second use as backup space and for experimenting.

Can you share the reference of your PC?

I'm afraid that won't help. That was like 7 years ago and all the hardware isn't available any more. It's a Xeon 4 core, an affordable workstation/server mainboard that happens to be very efficient in idle, 48GB of RAM and a bunch of harddisks. I started out with 6TB and then bought the best size/price hdds, which should currently be somewhere in the 12-14TB range if I'm not mistaken?
