    • @astronichols1900
      @astronichols1900 2 ปีที่แล้ว +31

      Wait! This just gave me an idea. Encode the data into video frames using some clever method that won't get destroyed by YT video compression, break it up into a few thousand videos to get some parallelism, upload all those to YT as unlisted videos.
      Edit:
      So apparently 8k YT vid is like 200MB/min, so we'll use that as max theoretical bandwidth for compressed 8k, so whatever cleaver encoding method you use can never carry more than that.
      So 370 TB at 200MB/min of video would be 1,850,000 minutes, or 30,833 hrs, or 3.5 yrs of video. So that could be made into 5,000 6.2hr videos.
      Conclusion: Why is no one doing this. Seems perfectly reasonable.

      if you go out and buy a 500$ camera and a bunch of hard drives to go with it so your total bill is ~1000$ for photography/vidiography, discluding whatever you have to pay to edit it (you probs have a pc its ltt's channel lets call it negligible in this case.) do you really want to have to spend like 100$ a month to backup on cloud, and another 100 a month if you ever want to use the backup... like that's about how this scales if you want to know in like single person channel terms.
      these cloud storage servers aren't meant for 8k archives necessarily their usually for like business files and backlogs, or other kinda of archives that aren't as thirsty as 8k footage for sure lol like pictures and other kinds of storage. their youtube servers are more for video streaming and storage, plus they cap that at 4k anyways. the other enterprises that would store 8k footage would be like film studios, netflix and shit. they usually would have their own servers and wouldn't care about 1000s a month because the budget is on a whole other scale. ie like nearly 100 million for a marvel movie or just 10s of millions for like a lower budget 8k 'cinematic' type project like a netflix original or tv series. still way outside a youtubers budget and ridiculous you think not spending 5000 a month or 100k up front when theres alternatives, 'cheeping out', theres reasons to try out different competing services, and they ran up against a wall with the cap but its not like if googles like you need a different local ip for the machine they wouldnt just give each (of the 5 main) editors an account. they had good options in the video for if it doesn't work out, mostly sure their just trying to see if it works and get some content thats achivable for viewers, but alot of the time with the internet thats just making t worse for those who knew.

Would all pcs need to be on for them to be able to download it? Not crapping on your idea, just genuinely curious how it would work.

      about 28 TB in upwards of 168 hours.
      40MB/s isn't that crazy in network speed, there's plenty of home connections with this speed. I'd say it's pretty darn slow for a company that generates this much data.
      I get 25MB/s and I don't even have the most expensive ISP consumer package.
      10Gbps isn't a crazy speed for companies with a large data stream. That would amount to 1250 MB/s, for comparison.

      yeah, 3.5in floppies, memory cards, hard drives bigger than 25 gb, dvd+r, dvd-r, blueray, those are so unreliable, it's crazy how quick in storage years your backups get corrupted or unreadable. The only real reliable backup media is the tape backup, but you need to be sure that you'll have a working drive to read them later. (remember external ultra-wide scsi plug and parallel printer port, now they're gone, also the same can be said for the application and required operating system)
