Why not just back it up to some portable HDDs? You can get a 3TB portable HDD for under $100. Assuming those are 8.5GB dual-layered discs (which they probably aren't) he's only got 187GB of footage.
I bought a guide for 25c
What a retard, some usb3.0 external drive would be enough.
If he is going to use physical media, he should use BD-Rs. A single BD-DL can fit an entire 52-episode anime in SD.
He doesn't like BluRay.
why does mike still help him? should just cut ties with that leech.
fellate this faggot on his own site, cocksucker
>records to dvds
>and then records those to his computer in real time
i love boomer shit like this. Reminds me that Doug Walker needed someone to press record for him because its was too high IQ for him.
How much do archive quality hdds cost?
if you want to archive stuff don't use HDDs
If you want to archive rather than store, you're probably looking at LTO tapes. They cost about $20 for 3TB, but the machines to read them are really expensive. We're talking $1500 or so. Plus reading off them is slower than a usual HDD, so it's really only if you're expecting to store something for like 30 years.
What do you mean he needed someone to press record. Like when he's doing his nostalgia critic videos with the shitty yellow wall behind him?
this but unironically
It's kind of sad that he doesn't even update his site anymore. The last AVGN there is from 2017, I guess the lard brigade demanded that all future uploads are youtube only.
I been meaning to upgrade my hard drive I am just waiting till 8tb become more common in PC build guides and then pick up a cheap 4tb but its taking forever
8TBs are already cheap enough tho. I already switched to buying them since they're at the same price I was buying 4TBs 3-4 years ago.
suck my dick
I don't know if you're aware of this or not but James is not playing a character, he is actually retarded. He has mentioned several times he had to go to a special ed school growing up.
James is a legit retard, at least tech-wise.
He didn't know how to record audio for I think commentary tracks, so he would start up a Skype call with someone and they would have to record it for him. Keep in mind that the person recording wouldn't even be part of the video himself.
Why the fuck would anyone need 20+ dvd back ups of one thing? Does he hid them all over and in safety deposit boxes?
He uses a DVR to record his play sessions for videos. I'm guessing he filled that many DVDs.
What the fuck, just use a capture card. Those things have been standard since like 2010
It was how he started and I guess never bothered to learn a better way.
what part of "He's a literal retard" do you not get?
>still records to DVDs
>on a MAC
not cheap enough for me yet waiting till 4tbs are 60
Why did he need all of those recordings though?
Soul.
Yes
