John,
At $75/Tb surely it is a no-brainer.
Avoid all that relinking mucking about.
I cannot resist saying that my first Avid storage was $4,000,000/Tb
Yay I had 1.5Gb!

I did the initial transcode to DNX 220 then transcoded that to DNX 45 for offline. I was surprised to see that the offline media for this half hour show was 341 GB and the online res was about 1.4TB. I know there are size calculators out there but I hadn't realize how much space an entire project takes at DNX 45. My work is mainly online so I've forgotten just how fast things add up in the offline world. It makes me rethink how I would manage a large reality production. Trying to keep all the original DNX 220 transcodes seems a lot less viable on a large scale than I had thought. I know storage is relatively cheap but even so it would get burned up pretty quickly the way I was approaching the in house show.
