So I've recently gone from a 25tb ssd NAS to a 120tb HDD one. Now I have the space I've got the dilemma of if the space remuxes take (and serving to clients) is worth the extra sound and video quality.

My main issue being how good an encode in x265 at say one third (or less) the size actually is. I've being testing on my 77inch oled and it's hard for me to get over the line of going for remuxes. At movie would be around 40gb and a single tv episode would be 8-12 gb.

What way did everyone else decide to go? Any regrets/thoughts? Just a reminder this would be using decent encodes only, around 6-7gb per movie and 1.2-4gb per tv episode encoded.

The other question would be for that content where there is no 4k disc available, would you go for a 4k DL or a 1080p remux/encode?
