Hello,
I am somewhat confused, I did research in the past (last year) but lost my notes.
I vaguely remember that there are different storage versions for HHD (I cannot recall them though). all I remember is that higher capacity had better version.
I have my own Jellyfin media server at home, and currently I'm using an old 4tb hhd from 10 years ago. it's just connected to my main gaming rig and runs in the background.
I want to buy a new 15-20TB HHD (SSD seems pointless here) but I am not sure what brand/type to get. I have 4khdr & 1080p content (biggest video I have is around 80gb).
I would appreciate for some guidance ๐
In the wiki I get lost, https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/wiki/hardware/#wiki_hard_drives, many things I do not understand, I don't have raid (nor know what it is). and theres so many parameters I get lost ๐
