In a few days I will buy a large capacity HDD. Now I have 3400 cards.
How much space do I need on HDD to save 5000 cards + their images and videos?
I mean the last 5000 cards, not the old ones with 500mb each.
Please tell me exactly, from your experience!

Thank you in advance! ❤️

@Evaneself ... that will depend on the resolution you download in

4K examples
e1792 = 2.4Gb
e1683 = 2.4Gb
f1244 = 2.8Gb
f1236 = 2.6Gb

3K examples
e2029 = 1.02Gb
e2025 = 1.16Gb
f1739 = 1.1Gb
f1717 = 1.1Gb

I have an 8tb HDD with shows of 480,720, 1080, 3k & 4k. There are 6,266 shows on it, including one's that are nolonger for sale. Like Muttonjeff said, it will depend on what resolution you use. There is 1.19 tbs left on the HDD. I would recommend getting one (HDD) that has more space than you will use in the next year. Don't forget to have a back up HDD of the shows & data.

like I already said ...
@Evaneself ... that will depend on the resolution you download in
an average 3K is 1.1Gb and 4K is 2.6Gb... only you know what files you have and want... do the maths.

As @Wyldanimal said ... he has a 14Tb for his collection (approx 6300) .. plus a backup.

I have 8Tb (2 x 4Tb SDD) for my collection of 4400 (inc. cards and videos), the data folder plus my VR and use approx 7Tb

hope that helps

@

Make sure to plan out enough time to copy / clone your Existing files from your current Storage device to your New Storage device.

for my New 14 TB drives, I was cloning / copying close to 8TB of existing files.
In the Past I had always used a copy software called EMCOPY it was faster than robo copy and the likes.
But even it was going to take 3 1/2 days

when I 1st started the copy process
I was seeing a High of 130,000,000 Bytes per second, and currently a low of 32,000,000 Bps
at that rate, 8TB will take about 3 and a half days...

based off this transfer rate calculator
https://techinternets.com/copy_calc?do

I've been using Macrium Reflect to do my Backups on my NAS
and it has a Clone option.
Wow, what a Difference it made.

I quit the EMCOPY and Switched to Macrium Reflect Clone.
and it was doing a steady full Sector by Sector cloning at 180,000,000 Bytes per second.

Only 15 Hours at that rate...
But it was too good to be true...
My Source Disk had 2 Corrupt files, which caused Macrium reflect to fail at 78% of its clone

So I discovered AOMEI Partition Assistant which has Fault tolerance in it's clone process which Macrium Reflect does not.

AOMEI was not as Fast, only 75,000,000 Bytes per second.

But it completed the clone even with the 2 corrupted files, and it was faster than EMCOPY
took about 2 days, it finished up on the 2nd day while I was *****, so it took 1 day and about 13 hours.

I had already Owned both Macrium Reflect and AOMEI from past projects
and didn't know about their clone options.
So I didn't need to purchase them as I already owned them.

I own the Profesional Version with a Lifetime License
but they have a free version ( I never used it )
