Storage capacity

No matter which storage system you choose, pick one that can scale to meet your needs over
time. Ideally, you should be able to increase storage capacity or switch to a RAID level offering
increased data protection in the future. Balance current and future storage needs with your
budget and choose accordingly.
Note: for uncompressed formats, PAL and NTSC transfer rates and storage requirements are
about the same because PAL has a lower frame rate, but more lines.
