Storage freaks clubhouse
So this ones kinda obvious. A post i made in the anime nation thread made me realise my storage needs go above and beyond the average user, so that means a clubhouse is in order!

While I don't have as many HDD's as you I have a complicated network of storage.
There is my stuff and my friend mike's Each of us have 1tb worth of HDD space making 2TB I have two internal 500gb's and he has 1 internal and 1 external both 500gb His external holds important stuff that is irreplaceable and one of my drives holds all our games ripped into .iso with the serial code in a text document. We pretty much share hardware and software so pretty much mines is his and vice versa. All my music is stored seperately on my phone and ipod both 8gb and I have lots of CD's with windows xp to windows 7 both x32 and x64. We did find a way to transfer stuff over hamachi but one of my HDD's got messed up and I lost everything. |

my e-sata cage solves most of my problems. even if my PC goes down, i know my datas safe in another box, and unlike NAS its totally safe cause its off 99% of the time - virus and mechanical failure cant hit a drive thats off
![]() h3llb3nd4: thats a lot of DVD's... a LOT. You ran into the issues with them degrading over time? i've had CD's die after 2-3 years in storage.

Can I join this club ?
I have this 4U chassis, though it's empty now. At the moment, I am trying to move everything to my new NAS unit, NAS-Apathy (Linked in my signature). The NAS has only one 1TB disk at the moment. My the other rig, E5410-Mammoth, has 4 storage HDDs consisted of one 1TB, two 500GB, and one 320GB. Once I add more 1TB drives to NAS-Apathy, I will relocate stuff on Mammoth to there.

No way for me to ship this thing at any cheap rate. Its size of twice of a mid tower and weights 60 lbs when everything is empty inside.
UPS once gave me an estimate, 120 dollars for standard shipping.
