The object of the present quest is to create a long-term archive of the tens of terabytes of media I've hoarded^Wcollected over the past 20 years. The said files are stored on a NAS that's currently running FreeBSD 13, and practically never change once they've been created.
In the unfortunate event of all my media going up in a puff of smoke, in lieu of restoring from an archive, I could always re-rip everything, but that's an endeavour I'd rather avoid altogether.
