For someone who wants to maintain a library of movies, I see the first two links in movies megathread total to 34TB worth of content.

What type of storage solutions do you folks use or recommend for large movie collections like this?

Do you have server racks? Which ones would you recommend?

HP DL380 G7 with 10TB 2.5" drives & an Iomega PX4-300R NAS with 12 TB 3.5" drives. The HP runs all my 'arrs as well as does any coding work & acts as preliminary storage. Drives have cost me more than the server & NAS units.

Why did you opt for a setup with 2.5" disks? I ask because I just replaced my track server because the 2.5" are just more expensive than a server replacement plus 3.5" disks where I'm from (with 4x10tb).
