Some drives are older. My 8TBs are 2019 enterprise SAS and are meant to be on all day. They don’t get much workout cuz once full they’re not doing a ton of writing. So they’ll last. Lady year picked up several 16TBs before the price jumped. Thankful I pay attention and jumped on it when I did!

I’ve ripped all ~2.5kDVDs, ~1.2k BD, and ~600 4K BD (plus several dozen 3D) I keep pretty high quality copies, strip multi lang or auto tracks and stick to higher DTS or Dolby, strip subtitles, etc.

Crazily, I keep a 2nd “older” 7700K for playing the DVD and BD content for friends and family, I do the better stuff for me and a couple friends who actually care about quality. Now I need to add JF alongside Plex and Emby just bc.
