I’m down to around 800GB on my two main 10 TB external hard drives besides all of the other miscellaneous drives I’ve collected over the years. That’s a combination of photos and video projects I’ve saved over the years. For the two large drives, I mirror the data by hand. It’s fine, but I want to improve the situation. Here is my video on the subject. The video projects are taking up the majority of the space. Even when I record mostly in 1080p, it still adds up fast. A single project can range from 15 to 50 gigabytes. Why save most of the footage and photos? I often reference past work. There are many videos where I pull a clip of some camera I owned at one point or something I had hands-on time with. I can even go back and reference the footage to see some feature of a piece of gear I looked at in a hands-on video. My YouTube channel isn’t huge, but I get a fair amount of questions through comments and Instagram/twitter messages. Sometimes I might upload videos to Amazon Prime Video...
