Hello,
I have digitized hundreds of VHS tapes and saved them on external hard drives, but they only have a lifespan of a few years.
So my question is, what would be a secure and reasonably affordable way to store the data online as a backup?
For your information, there are about 20 TB of movie files.

Loading...I would like to reset my PC but back up some files to another hard drive that is also integrated into my PC. How can I choose not to reset this one?
Hello folks, I have a computer with 2 SSDs and would now like to install games on drive D. Games are installed in the folder C/Program Files(x86) on drive C. Do I have to create the folder on drive D myself, or how do I install games there?
I'm looking for a case for my Raspberry Pi 3 Model B that will fit a hard drive. Does such a thing exist?
Hello , I'm looking for a cheap NAS system (for me privately) with 2 – 4 slots for SATA hard drives. It would also be good if the NAS also has a USB port that I can connect directly to the PC. I don't really want to spend more than €200. I'm not very familiar…
I bought an M.2 SSD from Kingston and installed it because I have an old HDD that's very slow. And my PC keeps trying to boot from the new one, which isn't on it. I even set the BIOS to boot from the old HDD, but it doesn't save.
Hello everyone! I dragged a folder of photos from my PC's hard drive to an internal hard drive. It worked. My question: Shouldn't the folder with the photos on the PC actually be empty afterwards? The photos are still all on the PC.
No, as long as you’re not constantly writing with them, and they’re not gonna shorten their life.
Would put on one or more large HDD(s). Are far from as cost-intensive as an online store in the order of magnitude and SSDs are, in my opinion, overkill for such a purpose. Regarding the amount of data you mentioned, you could consider compressing your video files, e.g. with a software like “Handbrake”. With the right settings, you get far smaller files with minimal quality loss. This saves space and money when buying the hardware.
Moin,
So 20 TB is a clean amount… there are also clean monthly costs.
I would recommend you to buy some good SSD records for the money
(they’re pretty fast and there’s a lot to do; and as long as you’re not erasing, describing, keeping them also)
Otherwise, I would make a price comparison with which provider you will get storage space for a fair price.
ATTENTION: the providers who are cheap also have a cheap data center with a lack of fire protection etc there are some cases where this is torched quickly, but for that it was cheap.
As I said, I recommend a safe and SSD/HDD plates

I also have many movies that I have played on an external 18 TB hard drive, record is from WD, cost 300 euros. And it doesn’t cost any more.
In fact, if one treats them to some extent careless, burned DVD-R are amazingly durable.
