I never re-use tapes.. so some stuff is archived on mini dv tapes… other stuff goes one copy on a firewire drive, these drives get used as working drives until they are near full, then put in storage when all jobs on them are finished, then a back up copy on nas raid drives and another copy on another nas raid drive, but saved as an mp4 movie in itunes…
finding a project in itunes is fairly fast and easy, and all I have to do is drop the mp4 file into roxio toast to burn a dvd or I can ftp the file… if I need original source material, then I search my archives…
everything on raids…
