Hard drives are so cheap why not DIY? The article implies TB of data but I find that dubious.

- fsiefken 10y agoEvery 30s would amount to 2880 times * x Mbyte per day. Which would mean 2 Gbyte per day. If you have a movie at 12 FPS you could get it down to 12 Gbyte per day.
- bitJericho 10y agoI have a feeling 8 hours of pitch black video compresses to even less. So at the lowest resolutions and framerates maybe you have 1gb of video per day. That's around 2 and a half years per tb. You can buy 5 tb drives for under 300 dollars. That means you can do video for 14 years. With backups and all the hardware, this entire project could cost less than 1000usd.
