I have a small server (GMKTec NucBox G3 with 1TB SSD and 32GB of RAM) plus a 2TB HDD filled with movies and tv shows (read only), a 320GB 2.5” HDD and a 480GB SSD attached via a USB dock.

I currently run Immich for images and I recently upgraded to the iPhone 16 Pro (from some old budget androids) and would like to avoid using iCloud since I can self host.

I was thinking maybe just using Immich solely to serve the files over the internet and store all images (HEIF, RAW, JPEG etc) on simple folders on my drives.

I was also thinking of encoding all my pictures and videos/movies/tv into a more modern and efficient format (AV1/JPEG-XL) to conserve space.

Basically I’m trying to make efficient use of storage as I can’t afford to buy more drives right now, since I want to prioritize getting Starlink (internet is currently 25 megashits).

What are your ideas?
