As soon as I get a new disc, I rip the raw image and make a streamable video file. I don’t like relying on streaming services to keep my favorite content available, so I still buy physical copies of movies and TV shows. The biggest data source is my DVD and Blu-Ray collection. I’m a data hoarder, so I keep every digital photo I’ve ever taken, every email I’ve sent or received in the last 20 years, and source code for all of my personal projects. A dedicated storage server eliminates most data migrations and facilitates sharing files between my systems. I upgrade my main workstation and laptop every two to three years, and migrating my data between computers was always a pain. I find it helpful to decouple data storage from my other systems. So, why have a whole dedicated server for data? After all, every computer stores data. A NAS server’s primary job is storing data and making it available to other computers on your network.
