It's definitely the hard drives. A 1tb SSD is about $150, and can definitely get you far, but it's never far enough

I use a 1 TB and a 2 TB ssd for temporary storage, sorting and transcoding. But for permanent storage, HDDs are the way to go if you want a lot.

How long would it take to watch 1 TB of video? A lifetime?

A single bluray movie will run around 50GB and full TV shows can easily be 100s of GBs.

Haha. That depends on a few factors. If you're going to the highest fidelity possible, you could fill 1tb up with about 20 UHD movies at ~50gb each.
