Posts must be related to Plex and Plex-related products, apps. etc. Try to keep comments relevant to the parent comment and to the post.
Rule 4 - Keep discussions of "media aqcuistion" limited to means and methods only.
Discussions regarding media acquisition should be limited to the "how" not the "what", as this is not the place to discuss piracy of specific media. There are other communities for that, and we don't want to get this community defederated from instances where it's a forbidden topic. Posts/comments discussing specific acts of piracy ("How do I find X show?" or "Where can I download Y film?")will be removed. For further clarification see this post

Just added 5x18TB Seagate Ironwolf NAS (CMR) drives to my build.
it's a retired desktop/gaming pc
Edit: along with the 5 new drives, switched to a fractal R5 case to accommodate the amount of hard drives
I've been having a hard time finding an r5 case (I haven't looked real hard, but when I have they've been out of stock or very expensive)
$125 on Newegg https://www.newegg.com/black-fractal-design-define-r5-atx-micro-atx-mid-tower/p/N82E16811352048
Oh! I'm mixing this up with the r7 XL for it's "storage layout".
I switched from a rack mount to an R5 case and it's a lot more practical.
Agreed. Rack mount is cool but I don’t have the space for that
