About 720 GB between my laptop and desktop. I'm looking into building an NAS (will probably just have one HDD and a backup one at first, but even with that I'm planning on getting either 12 TB or 18 TB drives, which is several times the total storage I currently have) since I've already been using the comparatively small storage of my desktop to keep stuff on while I typically use my laptop.

Until your nice sites and the clones and copies of them go down and never or never fully recover e.g. only host the latest and on going stuff. Or until your service provider decides to kick out a show or lose the license and you'll never see your show again.

I hate streaming
shit looks worse with the banding+artifacting, you're stuck with a shitty player 100% of the time, it's more of a hassle to delete cached browser shit instead of actual downloaded stuff, and it's way less convenient than setting up an RSS feed at the start of the season and forgetting about it afterwards.

About 13TB, ~1000 shows/movies collected since early 2013
Used to be scattered across multiple HDDs but I recently bought a single 16TB HDD and moved everything there. It's better for archival as I can just unplug it, and it won't have to endure the stress of being turned on and spun up even though I just write to it when my other smaller drives are full.

Did you automate it? If you’re using the same autism icons as the icon, there’s a CCS icon with Japanese. SZS and Tsuma Shougakusei no Naru have white alternate icons. You have the wrong Sorairo Utility icon for the 2025 anime, that one is for the 2021 anime.

Depends on the machine. My offline NAS is 12TB for media two drives of which are dedicated to anime. It's half full maybe however it's all x265 encoded stuff.

It's 2025, we grow devices on trees, streaming is far more convenient on a daily basis and modern anime slideshows are simply not worth downloading, if there's something pretty (authorial or subunga) I make an effort to watch it in its highest possible quality but even then I won't download it.
