never heard of it, school me breh
Might be time for yyou to build a server breh

I know im gonna have to either build another one or cop another case that can fit more then 8 drives soon

One of the best investments I've made was building a server. :blessed: Hopefully I can shove 3 more 3 TB drives this coming Black Friday. :shaq:

Blu-Ray Rips

:noah:

I can't even mess with it, if it's not at least like 8GBs

Trill story.

I got a gang of HD-MKV invites for whoever wants one. Just PM me an email. Don't sleep.

yea esp a whole tv series in 720p rip (even dvd and hdtv rips will take up a decent amount of room for shyt like seinfeld/curb/thewire)

I'll probably build another computer down the line and turn this one into a server. Filling up all 6 bays with 4 TB drives should have me set for awhile.

Word. I don't have a movie under 8 GB unless it's something old that isn't in 1080P yet. Times that by about 1000+ movies and you'll see how much storage you'll eat through.

It's basically your own cloud device, storage is only limited by the size of the external/usb drive you hook up to it

This is the most "popular" model on the Internet because of the specs and hackablity

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0033WSDR4

Don't worry about the color it comes in black and pink

I got one off a eBay firesale for $15

http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/100...dia-sharing-device-p21-or-e2?page=11#comments


Was planning on hacking it but am just use it as my own home cloud to store photos docs and bookw, fair warning though it does video and music stream but really iffy depends a lot on your connection when you outside the house

Still though it beats paying for a cloud service to keep smaller files


If you good at Linux tho Lil thing is godly read the slick deal comments

is it more cost effective to have full 1080p rips on server over actual physical BD discs?
