I have six 14TB drives in my NAS from serverpartdeals. Never had a problem with any of them.

If I may, what do you do with 84TB in your Nas ?

Never ask a man his pay, a woman her weight, or a data horder the contents of their stash.

Jk. Mostly.

I have a similar-ish set up to @Davel23 , I have a couple of cool use cases.

  • I seed the last 5 arch and opensuse (a few different flavors) ISOs at all times

  • I run an ArchiveBot for archive.org

  • I scan nontrivial mail (the paper kind) and store it in docspell for later OCR searches, tax purposes etc.

  • I help keep Sci-Hub healthy

  • I host several services for de-googling, including Nextcloud, Blocky, Immich, and Searxng

  • I run Navidrome, that has mostly (and hopefully will soon completely) replace Spotify for my family.

  • I run Plex (hoping to move to Jellyfin sometime, but there's inertial resistance to that) that has completely replaced Disney streaming, Netflix streaming, etc for me and my extended family.

  • I host backups for my family and close friends with an S3 and WebDAV backup target

I run 4x14TB, 2x8TB, 2x4TB, all from serverpartsdeals, in a ZFS RAID10 with two 1TB cache dives, so half of the spinning rust usable at ~35TB, and right now I'm at 62% utilization. I usually expand at about 85%
