  Hey Scott:

  10:1 (SD, obviously) at 29.97 takes up approx:

  7.4 GB/Hr.
  120 MB/M
  2 MB/s

  Thanks Michael, Is that storage needs or throughput? In other words I am trying to make sure our storage system is capable of 10:1 comfortably.

  The two go hand in hand.

  Throughput x time = amount of storage needed.

  One benchmark of a SAN is throughput, which is usually measured in MB/s (MegaBytes per sec).

  10:1 is 2MB/s, which is very, very easy for any SAN solution.
