I am starting to rip my 500-600 disc DVD collection (~50 are Blu-ray). I have a few movies/shows stored on my second PC with 2 4th HDDs on regular windows. I'm running jellyfin on that computer just to try things out and see if I actually want to do this. I'm thinking I want to rip them all so should I look into a NAS (truenas or OMV) and run Jellyfin as a VM, docker, or separate PC. Or just add more drives onto the current PC (I don't think 8tb is enough but we'll see.

It does need to be simple enough where when I move out of my parents I can walk them through repairs if something happens (drive dies). If I can do secure remote management that could work.

A general nas would be nice but have to make sure it's powerful enough to do Jellyfin streaming or just have a separate PC for that. I'm willing to do DIY but prebuilt nas does make things easier.
