Author Topic: THE 1000th TOPIC!!! John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 05-30-2000 09:36 AM                        Brad: Data overload??? Let's see. Film-Tech has "only" 1000 megs (1 gigabyte) of data, and had a difficult time finding enough server storage. A single COMPRESSED feature film shown with today's digital cinema needs about 40 gigabytes of data in an expensive RAID array capable of very high data rates. ------------------ John P.

Can you imagine what it would be like to send out Film-Tech on cd roms daily?
