I think SciOp is doing something in that area, with a catalog site and webseeds. https://sciop.net/

The Archive Team - not part of the Internet Archive - worked on a distributed backup of a portion of the Internet Archive - https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/INTERNETARCHIVE.BAK

It's been dormant / on hiatus for a few years now.

I wonder if they'll go with "toploaders" - like Backblaze Storage Pods - later. They have better density and faster setup, as they don't have to screw in every drive.

They got used drives. I wonder if they did any testing? I've gotten used drives that were DOA, which showed up in tests - SMART tests, short and long, then writing pseudorandom data to verify capacity.

You might look at Kiwix, and the data sources they've indexed: https://www.kiwix.org/en/

(Oddly, it's crashing at launch on my iPad right now)
