I’d guesstimate something like 100 movies. 4k Movies can be massive depending on the bitrate, HDR, etc…

My smaller 4k files are ~20GB and my biggest ones are 87GB(3 hour movie, high bitrate)…

Seems that “typical” is closer to 40… so 100 movies is probably about right.

100 movies per 4TB? If that’s true, that’s pretty reasonable! Id probably get 4 drives and do 3+1 Parity

That’s my guess… I have majority 1080p content, with a sprinkling of 4k stuff. I’m at 27TB for 6062 movies. 160 of which are 4k at varying bitrates.
