I have short films, projects that never got made, personal photos, ones of friends, clients, old family ones … i do some writing and store different documents. I want to have a Mari Kundo type hard drive.

Do you guys have any tips? Or some industry standard I’m not aware of?

    I have one pool of storage I use for all sorts of things, that’s 180TB in a single zfs pool in 2 raidz1 vdevs.

    For photography I store in the format Photography/YYYY/MM-DD-project-name

    I backup my photos (and various other documents) using Restic to Backblaze B2 and Amazon S3 using the glacier deep archive tier.

    In general you should follow the 3-2-1 rule. 3 copies of data in 2 storage mediums, at least 1 of which is off-site.
