WTF!? I'm out of disk space already

Just as I was going to copy season 3 of Highlander to aenea, my 1TB NAS system, I ran out of free space on the /usr volume, to which the bulk of the storage had been allocated. Nearly 850GB, gone in a little over a year. Sure, I could clean house a bit and make a little room, but the sad fact is, I need more storage.

I haven’t made a build vs buy decision yet, but I will point out that there seems to be a blind spot in NAS offerings between 1TB and 3TB; plenty go up to 1TB, plenty pick up at around 3TB, but where’s the midrange?
