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?

I run a supermicro chassis with 6 3TB drives in a RAID6 using a dedicated hardware RAID controller. Old school for these days but works for my needs for now. Drives were free from a buddy of mine so until they start dying or I need more space, they'll do. Then I have two 120GB intel enterprise SSDs for running Proxmox. VMs and LXCs are all on the spinning disks which surprisingly perform well enough.
