Frage von sebastian83:Day,
my hard drive in my laptop encounters slow s.ihre capacity. Today, there's Saturn at an external 500 GB hard-drive for 88 euro, so sometimes quite pricey. The exact data (manufacturer, etc.), I have unfortunately not on hand (someone here knows more, possibly synonymous Test Reports or so?).
However, this record only USB port, no Firewire.
Would a USB 2.0 connection is sufficient to directly from the camcorder to the external hard drive on capture? Or should I rather spend a little more money and directly buy an external disk, synonymous to a Firewire port?
Best ever thanks in advance!
Greeting
Sebastian

Sorry, but have the exact dates:
Fujitsu Siemens
XL-E 500 GB

7200 RPM
USB2.0

Since you synonymous s.einer external hard drive with firewire to your camcorder could not connect directly, but always making a detour via the PC / capture software will have to, you can s.der external firewire hard drive to renounce. You should however make sure that your calculator via USB synonymous to 25 Mbps can wegschaufeln. ACTUALLY, the HiSpeed USB (commonly called 2.0) is not a problem, but it is synonymous shitty USB controller type. And if you older hardware with USB 1.1 would have, would do nothing.

I have external Firewire 400, Firewire 800 (RAID) and USB 2.0 Calculator s.meinem plates and all are fast enough for video data to write and to read.
I strongly recommend, however, a defragmentation BEFORE capturing.
As long as the data s.Stück can write on it, is not with problems to be expected.
If I cut Mulitkamerashots together, I capture the data of each camera on a separate plate. This ensures that the write / read heads are not permanently repositioning müseen, resulting in a significantly lower Write / Read it.
The main advantage of Firewire is that the Firewire controllers of connected devices (computers, external disks) data automatically perform. When the USB is not so, resulting in a higher load on the CPU in full swing.
Theoretically, could it be that the capture of HD material that is of equal MPEG2 or AVCHD into a more appropriate coding for the cutting to be converted, the CPU is no longer mitkommt. I, however, never happened.
Conclusion:
USB 2 is absolutely ok for SD material and the most HD applications.

Do not forget that the only Ext.Platte to be formatted NTSF.

So I have FireWire 400 and 800 and USB 2.0 extere of WD LACIE and in recent years repeatedly had in use. USB 2.0 is the slowest variation (due to the processor work) and Firewire 800 it's twice as fast as 400th It is particularly important to mention that the cheap USB disks often designed to save. If mann video material on such a plate is prepared, it may be after a few hours fast thermal problems and smokes from the plate.

If somehow possible, would I get a hard drive in the actively ventilated enclosure combo take, so with high-speed USB
and Firewire
without thermal problems.
There are personal computers, where can the data coming from the camcorder via USB without error on an external hard drive and transferred to other PCs, the only via Firewire. To keep all options open.

That is again a botch of the Variety, it actually does not exist may be - good tip!

With all the possible combinations of hardware (components) and I have installed software on PC now with everything. "That would actually work," helps one in practice is not next.
