In order to make space in the living room, I've started ripping my DVD collection. At the moment, I'm not transcoding them.

Man, those things take up a lot of disk space. I've currently got 3TB storage (+2TB external backup storage) hanging out of the back of my server, and it looks like it won't be enough.

How do other people cope? How am I going to cope when I start ripping Blu-Ray movies?

Note to the cops: I'm not sharing them. This is merely format-shifting.
