Happy Whip'em Out Wednesday! - Page 2

I use DVDs to backup video edits. Video can get pretty large, and the costs of backing the stuff up onto hard drives would be insane (It's not unusual to have 25-30gig per running hour with multiple cameras, graphics, overlays, and preview files). $25 to store a project (assume 4 projects onto a 120gig drive at $100) or 6 dvds at 50 cents a piece... not hard to make the choice. I would prefer to put them on tape, but cheap tape drives fail and good tape drives are shockingly expensive.

Afternoon all!

Big time thunder and lightening here last night...along with an inch or so of rain. Enough that I had to open the pool drain for a bit this morning...lol.

Now, sunny and will hit 80 degrees before the day is done...I love Florida...lol.

Ouch...that sucks Swedguy. Good advice on the external hd as a backup. I run mirrored raid drives, but also use Norton Ghost to save a backup image of everything including the o/s twice a day to an external usb hd. Was pretty cheap to set up too

Alex where are you getting DVDs at 50 cents each?

Cleo · 2005-04-27, 12:56 PM

I bought the Memorex DVD -R at office depot for .25¢ by buying 100 of them last month.

Angel just got OWC Mercury Pro FireWire DVD-R/RW+CD-R/RW FireWire + USB that does the new Dual layer 8.5 gig disks. Haven't looked to see what these disks cost or how hard they are to find.

cd34 · 2005-04-27, 01:36 PM

The new Dual Layer disks are about $4 each from what I have seen. I think MacMall/PCMall had them for $60 for 15 recently. I have a burner capable of them, but, at $.50 for two disks versus $4 for the same storage, call me cheap, but, I'll use two DVDs

Office Depot does appear to be dumping the media at about the best prices I've seen recently, but, I haven't seen the Dual Layer DVDs there yet.

Cleo · 2005-04-27, 01:55 PM

Yeah she didn't buy the drive because of the new 8.5 gig disks. She has the same Powerbook that I have and they only came with a 1x DVD burner that is very picky about what it will burn to. I burn like one or two DVDs a month so no big deal but she has been burning a lot of disks so at 1x it becomes a real bottleneck in one's workflow.

It's amazing how fast this technology is changing.

Torn Rose · 2005-04-27, 02:15 PM

The best I've gotten is $1.66 each (for 50) which I thought was kickass since I was paying $4 each.

Cleo · 2005-04-27, 02:31 PM

The silence is deafening

Torn
I just stopped by Office Depot to pick up a 25 pack or something and saw their specials. They had a 100 packs advertised for $35 but were out of them so I ended up buying four 25 packs for $25 which was insane but that is what the store manager charged me since I was inconvenienced in having to buy four packs instead of one big spindle.

natalie · 2005-04-27, 05:22 PM
