JMBMOVIES — Mon, 04 May 2009 18:48:18 GMT

Hello Over the years I have collected a movie library in the hundreds. MY WIFE has given me the wife ultimatum and now must find a storage solutions in do haste. My research has lead me to Western Digital’s ShareSpace 8tb hard drives. There seems to be a multitude of options all with different pros and cons. I narrowed my choice down to the ShareSpace because of cost and ease of use but not sure of the capability issues with EVA 9150. Can anyone help shed light if this might be the right approach and or different options out there? I need my life to return TO some sort of sanity in home and movie theater Thank you JMB
