Same except everything is commercial equipment (rack hardware, UPS, PDU, 10GBE between NAS boxes and servers). I am at 120TB capacity of RAID10 currently. I have spent tens of thousands on my Plex setup. It’s not about the economy, its about never worrying about copyright licensing windows again. I don’t trust streaming platforms to maintain licenses for the stuff I like. The fragmentation is maddening and I wouldn’t even watch tv or movies if I had to use streaming services.

It’s funny Plex has an office in Los Gatos literally down the road from Netflix. They are literally the scrappy pirate ship plundering the booty of the incumbent.
