      I swear I saw an article a while back of someone who set up a multi-SD card reader with an obnoxious number of SD cards as an external drive. I can’t find it now but I think that’s the only way I could afford that much storage.

        Saves up that $20-$500 a month you’d spend on steaming and keep an eye on shucks.top for when prices hit all time lows.

        Typically around Black Friday and other common sale event that hide main steam media.

        Either use them as is or shuck them (crack them open) and install as internal hard drives.

        There are guides around setting up these things, look for a tutorial that mentions Plex, Radarr or Sonarr and go with what works best for your available hardware.

        And you too will be a data hoarder in few short months.

          Oh I’m a data hoarder. Just with 12TB right now. The trouble is I have to double everything to expand the NAS at my friend’s house that I’m doing encrypted off-site backups to…

      I’ve got another 80Tb on the way. Entirely because you’re the first random person I’ve seen who has more than me.
