Anna's Archive looks VERY interesting. I will chat with my brother to see if we can help.
Time for some geek hardware buying.
The big issue would be the initial seeding of the total package (873TB = 48x18TB drives = 48x€350 = €16K. Ouch.). Defo don't have that in the kitty at the moment. Also the power requirements for that would be large (keeping 50 drives alive 24/7 + the server).
Might look at breaking it down as they suggest. 50Tb+ would be doable for now. A new Unraid box with 6x18TB could help. Bandwidth being our enemy here. I will enquire if they do hard copies (DVD / USB) for initial seeding purposes.
Anyone got a couple hundred TB of extra space on their systems? looks like they need seeders :-D
lol
