Yes, the consensus here seems to be that for media it is fine to choose a HDD. Won't it make streaming from Jellyfin slower?

I've considered this as well, as I already back my data up regularly. However, I read online that external disks aren't good for long-term access. Have you run into any issues with that?

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll have to open up the machine to see if the motherboard has a SATA port. Adding a second SSD doesn't sound too hard assuming it is possible.

Thank you!

Could I ask why a server HDD and not a desktop HDD?
