Okay a ran search on this but did not find what i was looking for.
Approximately hOw much space does each minute of DV take up on the hard drive? I could do the math for a whole 60min once i find out.
I want to render from timeline to uncompressed avi then to what ever format i need. In general how much space does 1 min of uncompressed video take? I remember reading somewhere @1gb=1min but i cant find where i read that so its probably wrong.
The reason i ask these questions is that i (like 90% of everyone else) am looking for a new hard drive. I know that i want to stay in the 120gb-160gb Hd range for media management sake. If i can get a good deal on say a 120gb drive and it holds @hour of footage then i will probably take that deal. Ive been reformating after every projecet on my smaller drives so archiving data to this drive is not essential.
