Maybe I am one of the few, but I wouldn't mind a bigger drive. I would want four drives working in RAID5! And why not solid state! 
That way we could use four 128GB drives and get about 320GB real capacity. That should be affordable very soon! Or use the next generation of 256GB drives which should provide plenty of room for the bigger RedCodes with about 700GB real capacity.
The speed of one good solid state drive is enough for RR80 and RR100 apparently, based on their module. So RAID5 should be plenty, perhaps the only way to really get those big redcode, high fps, high resolutions to work..?
Anywho... they would still be about the size of a brick. Probably smaller...
And solid state... so maybe RAID 5 is unnecessary and RAID0 is more like it... though we would all appreciate knowing that there is redundancy and I am sure we would all ask for 5 over 0.
I would shoot all day onto it. Offload at night. Maybe at lunch too. I mean why not, the offload would tame me less time that it would to finish my meal at those speeds.
