Hello. I'm looking into a NAS to store my BD rips. Before I was hand raking them down, and storing them on a WD MyBook live 3tb. I'd like to now rip lossless copies onto a media server/NAS. So 25-30gb per movie (rough guess). I don't have a ton of movies at this point (30 or so I'd guess) but will be adding a lot once theater is done. So right now I have lots of room. I'd like to have redundant copies, I'd hate to have a disc fail and lose hours of ripping, so 50-60gb per movie.
My question is this, is it worth building a NAS for this, when you can get things like a 6gb mbl, for $500?
A rough guess puts 6gb MBL as holding about 120 films (in raid), give or take. Could you do better building your own NAS?
