Keep your main drive free of lots of space. My editing software runs radically slower if there’s not plenty of room on the drive. Hope this helps, and look forward to your tips. Especially from Windows users since some of this applies just to Mac folks. Originally posted by Kevin Nalty at WillVideoForFood.com, appearing as: “9 Tips for Videos and Hard Drives.” [...] [...] 9.

Since RAID 0 is fast but inherently can't be trusted for archiving, I have a 500 GiB drive (for now, until I can get something bigger). Everything gets backed up to DVD and the disks are checked yearly to make sure they're still readable since the media tends to crap out if it's stored too long. So far, I haven't had a HD failure, but I know it's a matter of time and I don't want to lose anything I've already shot.
