Re: HardDrive crisis/? for G3, Final Cut

I have a similar setup. I think you should spend the $520 and
get a 37.5 gig IBM Deskstar internal HD from Promax. That's what
I did. It's enough room for a couple hours of footage. You hook
it up internally and it's plug & play, no drivers. Works great.
Good luck! Kevin
: Okay, so I'm stumbling forward with a mind towards desktop non-linear editing (analog VHS in/edit/back to analog VHS). Using a 350mhz b&w G3, got my hands on Final Cut Pro and there's a Sony DVMC-DA1 on the way. However, I only have a 6GB hard drive in that G3, and I know that won't fly. Please help if at all possible...
: 1. In order to produce a clean, viewable (but mind you, it's analog VHS to start and end with so it doesn't need to be super-pristine) finished product what time:storage space ratio can I expect from my dumped video? (or, how much hard drive space will my analog VHS occupy once pumped into my hard drive?)
: 2. What would be my least expensive storage solution? Is USB viable or would its lack of speed make the operation impossible? If not USB, is FireWire viable?
: 3. What about storing raw footage to CD? Is that ridiculous?
: I realize this is long and I admit I'm horribly naive about this stuff; hopefully somebody out there can take a moment and nudge me in the right direction.
: Gracias!
