So I'm wondering if the 24TB super-expensive model could be used for hosting tube videos for affiliates, or even running an actual tube site from. Crazy?
No, use it for personal storage or some cases like grapesoda mentions would work okay but not advised. Your ISP would not allow you to run a "server" from your home, that would not be an issue for grapesoda but if you are running a public site it would be a huge issue. Not to mention, download speeds for your users would be ass. Plus these were not built for that purpose, they would not handle it very well.
