Use a stack of 100,000. 20,000 is a joke for Unix programs.
I'd rather create the archives on the Amiga and then use FTP to transfer them to a storage server. SMB is not a good choice when working with big files.
Also I'd avaoid to create one big archive by all means. No matter which program you use, there is always the chance that an archive gets corrupted and then all files are lost. I'd rather create smaller topic-related archives, for example one for music files, one for graphics files, one for text files, one for program sources, one for key files, one for settings, etc.
Do not let archives grow bigger than 10 or 20 MB.
