I've officially reached a data hoarding crossroads. With 226TB spread across 24x12TB drives, I'm down to my last 36TB. To most common folks, 36TB sounds like a huge amount of storage—my friends look at me confused because their devices barely hold 1TB. Yet, they never complain while binge-watching content from my Plex.

Now I'm faced with the harsh reality of upgrade costs. I can't fit more drives, and upgrading to 22TB drives isn't financially practical at the moment. Soon, I may have to do the unthinkable: delete some data.

Any advice or solidarity from fellow hoarders is welcome. How are you coping with storage limitations?
