Hi Randy, for long-term preservation you might consider LTO. This format is a great archival medium, but it’s unfriendly when you need access to those files for a project, so if you have access to 10-15 TB of spinning storage then keep those files there too.
Your next task is sorting all those video assets, that’s another thread altogether.
Best,
Trevor
