Mine is 186GiB. I have about 100 movies and 3 TV series on a two hard disks (one for backup). I don’t know if that is small or large.
How big is your collection?

Overall it’s (currently) a couple jbods plugged in to a NUC. Total draw is at 81W currently. That’s based off of a quick remote check on my UPS.
That’s a Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro, Modem, Ubiquiti U7 Pro, 2 - 6 disc jbods running Seagate exos 20tb, and the NUC.
There’s a secondary drive array but it only powers on once a week for a few hours to run backups/differentials. Even under that load I don’t really spike above 100W.
Compared to the draw my old full rack with a couple loaded up r210’s has, this is incredibly efficient.
That is incredibly efficient! Thanks for the info 🙂 I’ve wanted to be hoarder, but never thought I could afford it in the long run.
It must be pretty loud though, no? One would need a dedicated room for it, I image.

I keep everything in a 10u rack in my garage so it doesn’t bother us much. That said, when it was in my office being configured, it was quieter than my desktop running a 5900x and 3080.
By design, NUC’s are super quiet and the jbods I’m using are cooled with 2 140mm fans running at about 50% most of the time.
Worth noting, I’ve been a metal fan and musician most of my life so my sensitivity isn’t very high compared to a lot of others.
you’re just using jbod? with that many disks, aren’t you worried about them failing? or do you just redownload it if that happens
