Be careful with those big hard drives. Just because they're bigger, that doesn't mean they'll last longer before they fail.

I specifically get NAS drives that are supposed to be higher reliability. And the usage is currently spread across 2 drives. 

At some point, i would like to get some external drives as back up. 

Yeah, they're filled with Helium or some other gas to protect them.

It's not a bad idea to use external drives as back ups for the movies and files you can't find somewhere else. The trick is to not overdue it and try to back up everything.
