# Two volumes:
#
# - media: original photos/videos + generated thumbnails/encoded videos.
#   Shares the cp-3 USB HDD with paperless-media, same StorageClass/disk tag,
#   single replica (single disk, no redundancy possible - same tradeoff
#   paperless already accepts). Sized 1400Gi, not 2000Gi: the disk's real
#   usable capacity (~3724GiB, formatting overhead) minus paperless-media's
#   2000Gi and ~231GiB of other apps' default-class replicas that Longhorn
#   placed here anyway (disk tags only pull matching volumes in, they don't
#   exclude non-matching ones when the untagged pool elsewhere is full) only
#   leaves ~1493Gi of real scheduling headroom right now.
# - ml-cache: downloaded ML model weights for immich-machine-learning
#   (face detection / CLIP embeddings). Small, disposable (re-downloads on
#   loss), but persisted so a pod restart doesn't re-pull multi-GB models -
#   default 3-replica pool, not node-pinned.
