Oh there's way more than that... My, I mean, my friends server is about the same size and stuffed full of tv. Not even close to having s complete library.


MY friend thought he was doing well with an almost full 2TB drive, which also contains movies. But then again most of his stuff is 480p.

He has a 42" tv and from 12 feet away he finds it quite difficult to notice any difference with HD. Maybe he's alone in this?


I personally can't stand anything below 720p, the majority of my content is 1080p, x265, 6CH, 10bit wherever I can get my hands on it.


I find if the story is engrossing enough the quality doesn't really matter too much.


For tv shows, he's most likely fine. The only instance where I personally need HD is watching hockey because the puck is so tiny.
