I have 1tb drive dedicated to movies and its filling up. I was wondering if i enable compression on the hdd if it would be worth the performance hit. And if any what would happen.

I only watch movies here and there. And when i am not not doing anything. But when im not watching / using the hdd will i still have performance hit?
