I have started backing up all my hd dvds and blu rays to various hdds and it has now occurred to me with the size of these files that I will need many terabytes of storage. (duh!)
I would like to put different genres on different hdds to make it easier to select what to watch on any given night. Can I just copy over the files to a new hard drive? That is, will it play the same as a new rip? Or do I have to re-rip to hard drive every movie?
I've already ripped 50 to 60 movies, which amounts to maybe a hundred hours of work that I would like to not do over if I can help it.
thanks
