@eblu @Cybird For example, lets say you have 400TB of videos. You also need another 400TB to back those videos up (or just pray your raid array doesn't fail). So that's 800TB of storage.
Well, a 300TB storage server at hetzner (cheapest host I'm aware of) runs in the realm of $400 a month. But that's only around 250TB usable with a raidz2. So your total costs for 800TB would be $1200 a month just for storage + backups.
I think you can see where I'm going with this :)
