    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.

Currently shooting standard def video on my sony pd150.
Started out with a terabyte drive, put space is dissapearing at an alarming rate due to the amount of footage being imported. I would like a nice external drive that I can set up with a raid system.

Any links or recommendations?

Thanks.

I've seen several multi disk racks on eBay that are Raid -- try searching there. You'd add your own disks, of course, but I've seen 4 disk racks for a couple hundred dollars.

Man, you filled a Tb already? That is a lot of footage.

Thx much!
