The first thing I need you to do is walk to a mirror, look yourself deep in the eye and ask yourself one question… “Do I actually need a NAS? …or am I a data hoarder?” It’s a legitimate question, one that can lead to some deep soul searching (I’m still looking in the mirror at this point). First off, welcome! We’re going to get things cleared up for you. So-now that you’ve been 12 Reddit threads deep-you’ve wound up here, dear reader, looking for the solution everyone has recommended. You breathe a sweet sigh of relief until you realize… you’re gonna need a bigger boat. The deadline is only at the end of the week. A few swift clicks and those files are in the bin, your finger hovers over “empty trash”, sweat beads down your face, sirens blare in the distance.Ī dream. You must now decide… delete the entire photo album of your sixth grade ski trip or tell the client they need to wait until tomorrow to get their video. Your NLE chirps back at you “insufficient disk space, render failed”. It clicks to life as you plug it in, Finder is telling you 0.01 of 2TB is available. An old mechanical drive wrapped and choked by its own power cord with a slightly rusted USB 2.0 port. Half the drives aren’t even labelled! You’re searching for anything at this point. Firewire? Can you get those cables anymore? Relics of technology lost to the sands of time. Some are so ancient they belong in a museum. Swiftly you run to the closet and sift through a mountain of drives. Your client is expecting their video by the end of day and there isn’t a shred of spare disk space in sight. There is no way it could be filled already. How could this happen? You just bought another 10TB drive a week ago. One gentle click and then it happens… that dreaded message Your edit is complete and it’s time to hit render.
