This is a more subjective and situational question. But would like your opinions based on experience. Long story short, gonna get a dxp4800 and put unraid and have it as a jellyfin media server. My question specifically is what drive size is the minimum I should start out with? I will be buying from server parts deals. I was gonna get 4x 4tb Seagate irons to start then slowly upgrade to 12s Seagate exos when needed when I either run out of space or a drive fails. I was told to stay away from basic HDDs as they will fail faster because they weren't meant to be running 24x7. Thank you sir any advice or tips.
