I kept all my CD’s from the 90’s that have sentimental value because those are my high school and college years. I used to look at the band photos and lyrics in the liner notes all the time

Since 2000 I’ve been ripping CDs the moment I buy them and look the liner notes once and then it goes in the closet. I sold or donated almost all of those unless it was from a band I liked from the 90’s or some kind of collector’s edition

Same for DVDs. I ripped them all and kept about 10%

Same for my National Geographic magazines. I kept about 10 and I have the entire collection on my computer back to 1888

It looks like the source of the bug is identified and fixed.

almost all of them don’t have built in hardware RAID. I don’t really trust software RAID. Mostly rebuilding if the software crashes or my hardware crashes. Even if I was ok going with soft RAID

Most people here are the exact opposite of you and don’t trust hardware RAID especially cheap implementations in a USB based DAS box. Software RAID is far more flexible and makes your setup independent of the hardware RAID cad dying.

A NAS is great when you have multiple simulataneous users. What kind of computer do you have? Do you have a desktop computer in an ordinary case? How many drives can it hold internally? If you’ve run out of space just buy a bigger case and move the motherboard etc to the new case and put the drives in the same case as the rest of your computer.

This machine kept working but was missing for 4 years. They traced the network cable and found it got buried behind a wall but it was still working.
