My whole filesystem is a git repository.
If this forum had a ghetto thread I'd be stuck there.
First drive is for windows and a few programs that don't necessarilly need speed (ffmpeg, cdisplay, visual studio, notepad++)
Second is for anything that requires either speed or enough size for storage, i put my games, animes and musics on it.
Third is the same as second, but an alternative to it. It may happen that two programs from the second are used at the same time, slowing both down, if that is the case i use the third. It's also the download location of my torrent client and where it seeds from, which i never do while i run programs that requires a lot of ressources.
Fourth is just for backup of important shit.

Server 1 - DL380 G5 w/ 8x 146G 10K SAS RAID 10
Server 2 - Dell PE T620 w/ 4x 480GB SSD + 8x 4TB SATA
Backup -
Server 1 is backed up nightly to a 1TB USB drive
Server 2 is backed up to LTO-6 nightly.
Most of the data on Server 2 is the Plex library. It's not important enough to backup to LTO.

Friend has his old 80tb storage box set up in a Colo rack and I rent the usage for the cost of electricity. Secondary backups are on Google Drive and Amazon cloud Drive. I only backup the nas as the JBOD is scratch space.

Just get a small capacity SSD and use it for your OS install and programs, then keep the HDD for everything else.

>hoarding animu when you can just stream it
Yeah dude, why would you download high quality rips when you can just watch the same thing on KISSANIME without having to wait for it to download?
Erm to stream you first need someone to hoard? Fag.

Some age-old ATA drive for booting Ubuntu server, with two 1 TB WD Reds in RAID 1. Used for backups.
I built a NAS with 4x4TB drives, used ZFS and had the drives mirroring each other, I have around 7TB of total space after setting it all up and I'm only using about half of that.
In hindsight, it was fucking stupid. I could have just bought a 6TB drive for less money and it would have covered me just as well. The NAS lasted for about 6 months and now one of the drives has uncorrectable sectors already. It all still works since another drive is mirroring that one, but what a goddamned waste of time.
As for my main system, I use a 2TB Caviar Black as my drive for downloads and temporary storage, I have Windows on a 250GB M.2 drive, and I have another 250GB SSD which I just use as a steam library.
don't be a fool, just replace the drive and enjoy your reliability/speed/uptime of RAID 10
