Mine is 186GiB. I have about 100 movies and 3 TV series on a two hard disks (one for backup). I don’t know if that is small or large.

How big is your collection?

    4451 movies

    398 series / 36130 episodes

    Taking up 25.48tb after conversion to HEVC compressing it ~40%

    Every series is monitored for new episodes which download automatically; and there’s a dozen or so public IMDB lists being monitored for new movies from studios/categories I like. Anything added to the lists gets downloaded automatically.

    Then there’s Ombi gathering media requests from my friends/family to be passed to sonarr/radarr and downloaded.

    At this point, the library continuously grows on its own, and I have to do little more than just tell it what I want to watch.

      What’s your process for recoding? I’m nearing 120tb used space and would like to re-encode some of the stuff my *arr stack grabbed before I got my profiles tuned in.

          The majority of my stack as well as vehicles run off renewables / solar. So it’s hard to tell. May seem like some massive library but it has been accumulated over 25 or so years and is composed of a shit ton of physical rips from a pretty extensive library of everything from VHS and vinyl to uhd…

              Overall it’s (currently) a couple jbods plugged in to a NUC. Total draw is at 81W currently. That’s based off of a quick remote check on my UPS.

              That’s a Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro, Modem, Ubiquiti U7 Pro, 2 - 6 disc jbods running Seagate exos 20tb, and the NUC.

              There’s a secondary drive array but it only powers on once a week for a few hours to run backups/differentials. Even under that load I don’t really spike above 100W.

              Compared to the draw my old full rack with a couple loaded up r210’s has, this is incredibly efficient.

                That is incredibly efficient! Thanks for the info 🙂 I’ve wanted to be hoarder, but never thought I could afford it in the long run.

                It must be pretty loud though, no? One would need a dedicated room for it, I image.
