44TB server for storing curated "videos". | /r/madlads
![0 KB/s TEQUI 90% 9:34 PM reddit.com/r/DataHoa 2 NSFW r/ r/DataHoarder • 2 days ago dmanitoba My 44TB RAID 10 Linux DAS P--- Stash. Hoarder-Setups I recently added 2* 24TB 3.5" disks to my RAID pool, effectively doubling what I previously had. I have 2*4TB nvme drives I use for downloads and encoding. I also upgraded my case to a Fractal Design Define 7, which the specs say should have space for 12-14 3.5" disks total, I think I have 8 filled now. I also have 2*8TB disks not in the pool - these are older disks and I have just kind of crammed them with a backup of as much of my raid I can fit, as adding disks to the raid and balancing is a bit stressful. Space has always been an issue, so almost everything in my collection I've re-encoded to HEVC with ffmpeg - and in most cases I can get file sizes down 50-70% with minimally noticeable quality loss. I A/B test frequently, and find crf value of 22 with a fast preset is a sweet spot for me. If I can double my storage and lose some minor detail in skin or hair, that's acceptable for me. It just costs processor time, so last year I upgraded to Ryzen 9 7900 which has 24 cores and has been great for encoding. I have been using Btrfs RAID 10 for about a year or two now. It's native to the Linux kernel, and I can add different disk size pairs and expand the pool fairly easily. Raid 5 or 6 would be nicer as I'd have a lot more usable space as opposed to the mirrored setup I have now - but apparently its not stable in Btrfs. I think ZFS has less support for adding different disk sizes which I decided was important for me as larger capacity disks inevitably come out. I use Stash App for organization. Probably NSFW. It has a great discord community, and very active development cycle for what it is. It really allows you to lean into your OCD of sorting/tagging/organizing, etc; it has built in functionality to pull metadata for scenes and performers; a great and complex filter system for creating playlists; and has a very good mobile app too. I've used Jellyfin and Plex in the past, but stash is tailored for p--- and has so much more functionality for this type of media. For scraping and ripping: For professional studios I create a lot of my own scripts in Tampermonkey, I can get the metadata and the download links and will usually create a shell script to bulk download those; yt-dlp works well on many sites such as Pornhub etc.; gallery-dl can rip other certain sites with one command, Bulk Downloader for Reddit is good for scraping subreddits; there are also really good scrapers for onlyfans/fansly onlyfans-dl-2 and OF-Scraper. Fish shell is also great for writing scripts for any little thing you need done, renaming, encoding, sorting, creating playlists, and I easily have 50+ little to medium sized scripts for various tasks. Judgement comments are not particularly welcome.
