 - **Top-level by category** (not by person) — categories are stable, people change
 - **Numbered prefixes** — keeps folders in logical order, not alphabetical jumble
-- **Person sub-folders** inside relevant categories where data is personal
+- **Person sub-folders** inside `01_family/` where data is personal
 - **Flat enough to navigate** — max 3 levels deep
-- **Obsidian destination** — notes, ideas, configs eventually migrate there
+- **Old code → separate Gitea instance**, not loose files
+- **Notes → eventually into Obsidian**
+- **Media (music/movies) → .35 for Jellyfin**, not in this archive

+## What Goes Where (Not in Archive)
+
+| Data | Destination | Why |
+|------|-------------|-----|
+| **Music** (121G) | `.35` `/mnt/hd/data/music/` | Jellyfin needs it here |
+| **MOVIES_TV** (341G) | `.35` `/mnt/hd/data/movies/` + `tvseries/` | Already exists there, delete from .13 |
+| **Old code — websites, IoT, Flash** | **New Gitea instance** | Git repos, not loose files |
+
+---
+
 ## How the Current Data Maps In
 
 | Current Location | New Home | Notes |
 |----------------|----------|-------|
-| `ALL_TRANFERS/WORK/` (130G) | `02_projects/web/` | Old websites, htdocs, Flash |
+| `ALL_TRANFERS/sam rolfe/` (137G) | `01_family/sam/` + sort | Review contents first |
-| `ALL_TRANFERS/Music/` (121G) | `03_media/music/` | After move to .35 Jellyfin? |
+| `ALL_TRANFERS/WORK/` (130G) | `→ Gitea repos` | Old websites, htdocs, Flash |
-| `ALL_TRANFERS/MOVIES_TV/` (341G) | `03_media/movies/` + `tv/` | Already on .35 duplicate |
-| `ALL_TRANFERS/sam rolfe/` (137G) | `01_family/sam/` + sort | Review contents |
 | `ALL_TRANFERS/DOCUMENTS/` (2.5G) | `05_documents/` | |
-| `ALL_TRANFERS/sams_piano_recordings/` | `06_creative/sams_piano/` | |
+| `ALL_TRANFERS/sams_piano_recordings/` (766M) | `06_creative/sams_piano/` | |
-| `ALL_TRANFERS/UNI_STUDY/` | `04_education/sam_uni/` | |
+| `ALL_TRANFERS/UNI_STUDY/` (167M) | `04_education/sam_uni/` | |
-| `ALL_TRANFERS/phone_recordings/` | `06_creative/phone_recordings/` | |
+| `ALL_TRANFERS/phone_recordings/` (12M) | `06_creative/phone_recordings/` | |
+| `ALL_TRANFERS/Music/` (121G) | `.35` `/mnt/hd/data/music/` | Jellyfin |
+| `ALL_TRANFERS/MOVIES_TV/` (341G) | Already on .35, delete from .13 | Jellyfin |
+| `/mnt/storage/` (932G Windows) | ❌ Wipe / reformat | No value |
 
-## What Lives Where on Active Machines
+---
 
-- **`.35` `/mnt/hd/`** — Runs the services (Docker data stays put). Media content is served from here directly by Jellyfin/Immich.
+## Separate Gitea for Old Code
-- **`.13` `/mnt/ubuntu_storage_3TB/archive/`** — The permanent archive. Cold/warm data lives here.
+
-- **`.27`** — Current dev work, coding projects. Eventually pushes completed projects to archive.
+Yes, run a second instance. Best placed on **`.13`** (the dev machine, not the Docker host):
+
+| Option | Where | Pros |
+|--------|-------|------|
+| **Docker on .13** | `.13` as a new container | Separate from .35's active Gitea |
+| **Direct install on .13** | `.13` via nix package | Simpler, no Docker overhead |
+
+Keeps old archived repos (websites, IoT, Flash, Arduino) completely separate from your active repos on `.35`.
+
+---
+
+## What Devices to Keep
+
+| Drive | Size | After Cleanup | Fate |
+|-------|------|--------------|------|
+| **ubuntu_storage_3TB** (ext4) | 2.7T | ~700G used, 2T free | ✅ Archive + backup repo |
+| **Data** (NTFS) | 1.8T | Empty | ❌ Reformatted to ext4, use as offline backup or repurpose |
+| **Storage** (NTFS) | 932G | Empty | ❌ Reformatted to ext4, use as offline backup or repurpose |
 
 ## Naming Convention
 
 | Element | Rule | Example |
 |---------|------|---------|
-| Top-level folders | `##_name/` | `02_projects/` |
+| Top-level folders | `##_name/` | `03_photos/` |
 | Sub-folders | lowercase_with_underscores | `sams_piano/` |
 | Files | lowercase_with_underscores.ext | `project_notes.txt` |
 | Family folders | firstname | `harry/` |
-
-This keeps everything sortable and avoids the space-in-filename issues.
