Advice and pointers welcome.
Hi, I'm in the initial stages of planning a long term scientific project that will involve storing multiple video files. The current plan is to run 2 or even 3 high speed/definition cameras for up to 10 hours a day and store the recordings to create a data set, so the recordings are the purpose of the project. Does anyone know of a capacity calculator that I can use to get an idea of how much storage per month/week/year Ill need for this, and any recommendations for a rugged storage enclosure that is resistant to low temperatures. The intention for this enclosure is to store the initial copies of any recordings, but it will be the first part of redundant storage array with probably 2 nodes. If possible Id like to have both nodes mirrored with one offsite that will also become the back end storage of a website in the future, any recommendations on that or file formats for the recordings that would allow for compression without losing any resolution. Thank you in advance.
