What Files Do You Keep?
My storage space is somewhat limited, and I am trying to figure out what/if I should delete to save and make space. I have unedited source video files from a GoPro in the typical resolution I take and upload in, and in low resolution. The GoPro saves both. I also have the finished edited video files as well. The low resolution files don't really take up much space, so deleting them wouldn't do much, but saving them also doesn't do much because I don't think I would use them if I wanted or needed them for additional content. If I wanted to watch the finished video I can always pull it up wherever I posted it, but if I wanted to use the footage again there would be quality loss from the download and re-editing. Or if something happens to the content such as account removal, video taken down, or random technology glitch. I could just re-export the finished file though, provided I save the source files and the project file. I'm one of those people that doesn't like to get rid of anything useful though because you never know when you might reference it or need to look back on something. Realistically that isn't an option though due to limited storage space. So my options if I am considering everything are -
A - Save source files and delete finished videos.
Allows me to export the finished video again if I needed. Saves medium space.
B - Delete source files and save finished videos.
Allows me to keep finished video as a backup. Saves the most space.
C - Delete everything.
What are the odds I'll actually look through or need any of this again anyways?
For reference, the video style and content will mostly be long (1+ hour) backroad pov.
