My HD is chocking but I don't want to throw away culturally precious mataerial (mainly movies)

vanveen@lemmy.world to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com – 58 points –

I've left wigh 10 gb in my hd, almost 300 gb in my hd are occupied by culturally relevant films (in hig deifinition) that in the future (I bielieve, and I'm afraid) won't be so easy to find and thus I am reluctant to delete.

::: spoiler spoiler Out of curiousity, some of the movies are: Fellini's 8 and a half; Metropolitan by whit stillman; Lust; by Ang Lee; Ice storm by Ang lee; The Dresser by Peter Yates; Another woman, by woody allen; :::

I cannot right now buy and external HD (that in the long distance I will surely loose in the profoudities of a cupboard), is there any solutions, safe and cheap to keep them somewhere online and made them available to anyone somewhere that is interested to watch them?
Thanks to anyone who will want to help me. Have a nice day!

Like the other guy said I also think that he's just running low on space. Secondly not using the drive will keep it good for longer but it will still bit rot(if he plans to keep the drives for very long)

Not likely. The english is awkward but pretty heavily means the drive is failing.

Not really, he says that he only 10gb left of his 300gb.
