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.

What's your electricity bill like? That's 0.12 pb. Monstrous in my opinion.

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..

Pretty cool that you're able to use renewable energy. Do you know how much power it consumes? And do you have a backup power supply? Uninterrupted Power Supply I think it's called.

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.

you're just using jbod? with that many disks, aren't you worried about them failing? or do you just redownload it if that happens

[–] vulgarcynic 1 points 3 months ago

I have a full mirror. If both arrays fail, I figure I have bigger problems and redownlod would be low on the list.

Which JBODs do you use for your 20TB Seagate Exos, and would you recommend?

I'm looking for recommendations for a solution that will work for 3 × 22TB white-label Seagate Exos, but it seems to me that only very few of the various JBOD enclosures available online are actually good products worth buying, but it isn't always clear to me if they even support 22TB drives...
