It's A Digital Disease!

I recently bought a 2tb drive to digitally back up our dvds, cds, etc. on and make more accessible... turns out we exceded that amount, aaand could use more space for more media we wish to aqquire(my parents rewatch shows in their entirety.) Ive counted 15 requests. Our How its made collection has taken up little over 200tb with extras, but I hope this is the largest series we have.

Am I crazy for wanting to buy 10tb external drive to lug out into the living room with my laptop? The current drive will be used for music and podcasts since those have taken up so little space in compaeison.

Im think of Seagate's STKP16000400 16tb model because $250 is my limit I can push past a little.
