They will be up to petabytes with the sizes most movies carry

Disagree. In AV1 or x265 with <5 audio/language tracks like 6GB for 1080p or 20GB for 4k are completely fine. Doesn't need petabytes, even for large collections

I have plenty of old TB drives. Mounting a bunch them into a normal case and fireup a FreeNAS or whatever NAS OS is not complicated. A box that just stay behind the big TV and accessed anytime you want.

But yeah you do not need super extra shit tons of GB per movie. Even 6GB is too much for an old movie from 80s...

idk if freenas does that automatically but make sure to use RAID and/or backup. Old drives like to fail.

Are you kidding? Movies from the 80s shot on 35mm film have INCREDIBLE quality. They are much more worth it to have in 4k and good bitrate than movies shot on shitty early digital from the 2000s 🗿🗿
