I can confirm jellyfin is great… But I have moved onto burning onto physical Media (BD) to avoid HDD / SSD failure with data loss
Why not both? BD for backup, Jellyfin for convenience.
I have both currently but it’s an HDD so it won’t last forever
That’s what RAID is for. When a disk fails, hopefully you’re fast enough with the replacement so the array never fails.
It’s only a single extern HDd from western digital
Optical disks rot even in perfect storage conditions. There’s no failure proof storage solution easily available.
Yeah disc rot is a problem… But luckily it’s A LOT longer (50-100 years)
This is compared to HDD (6 years) and SSD (10 years)
