I have a media server built in an Apache 1800 case with four 2tb 2.5" ssds in it.
If I where doing this, I would fill a hard case with nvme drives or 2.5" ssds and put 4k remuxes if you’re dead set on 4k, or 1080p remuxes, the ones on my server are 6-8 GB.
Yes, you can get super high capacity ssds, but they are real expensive. The reason I have 2.5" drives in my box was price. I paid $50 for each one.
