Question for the group...
I'm 18 Blu-Rays away from filling up my initial 1U server. When Disney arrives in the Premiere line and especially if I can upgrade existing DVDs - that will take care of the remaining space very quickly.
I'm told by my dealer that partially populated systems aren't an option any more so I'd be getting a full 4TB drive 1U server and doubling my capacity. This might be fine but I'm wondering if a better option is coming soon (8TB drives or larger) and I'd be better off waiting to invest until then at a lower $/TB and more capacity for what will hopefully be a 4K option as content arrives.
I'm hoping others are in a similar position and curious about your perspectives.
What do you think?
