Yeah, same here. My pirated film and television show collection has grown to fill up 7 1TB disks. I've been working on this same collection since around 2007. I'm looking into buying a home NAS or building a small box with a raid that can hold them, because having that many small external disks plugged into a USB hub is getting kind of old. Not looking forward to the transfer though, recently sync toyed our NAS at work with a similar amount of data on it, and it took about a week to backup.
I've been buying 4tb externals to save my collection up and like you found it time consuming and annoying as fuck. Seagate have released a 10tb drive which I was thinking of buying but it was out of my price range. Given a few years though they'll probably come out with a 100tb external at which point I'm going to save all my shekels and get one so I can have all my content on a single drive.

2007... I suppose most of those disks are USB 2.0 transfer speed or less. My condolences.
