How big is 3 months of photos, you ask? 72 gigabytes. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 20:25 8
- HOLY CRAP! -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 20:25 7
  - Each photo is around 24MB in RAW, plus if I turn them into panoramas, that copies them into a combined file of 75-300MB (depending on how many photos) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 20:26 6
    - You need an external 10TB HD to move them over there -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 20:27 5
      - Yes, very much. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 20:27 4
        
        What would be cheaper that or renting cloud storage? -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 20:28 3
        
        The HD, for sure. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 20:28 2
        
        (I currently copy all my photos to a 3TB HD, and then sync them to a cloud storage provider. One on-site backup, and one off-site.) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 6, 20:29 1
        
        I have some cloud storage with my Microsoft Office subscription. I need to start using that. -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 20:33
Put all your video on an external HD -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 20:24 1
- (and yes it will be slower, but still faster than using only that little bit you have) -- nm - Bacon Mar 6, 20:25
