I collect movies and rip them to my external hard drive (4tb).
But as my collection (now 3+ TB) is growing I'm going to need a bigger solution in the near future.
I only write the movies once, then index them.
After that I usually use the drive about once a day watching movies.
What could be an useful storage device?
A NAS would be overkill I think, I only use the drive at night and then it would be quite the waste of electricity to power it 24/7 just for those 2/3 hours.
Preferably something that is fail-safe as I prefer not to have to re-rip everything.
