My media library is 853.20 GB, 8,768 titles, 26,853 files ('format' files, covers, and opfs), the database 7,367,680 bytes. That's ~100MB per title.

It lives on a 4TB WD Black spinning platter drive. I moved the database to an empty 256GB SATA SSD drive, made no discernible difference to library performance, so I moved it to my 512GB PCIe M.2 system SSD, start times went from ~8 secs to ~4 secs, otherwise no discernible difference.

I figure the most I would gain from keeping my library databases on a high end SSD would be a minute or two a day. Needless to say I won't be bothering.
