La capacité de stockage d'un disque dur dépend de la taille des films que vous souhaitez y stocker. En général, un film en qualité standard (SVCD ou DVD) fait environ 1 à 2 Go, tandis qu'un film en haute définition (HD) peut faire de 4 à 8 Go, voire plus.

- Pour des films de 1 Go chacun : vous pouvez stocker environ 500 films.
- Pour des films de 2 Go chacun : vous pouvez stocker environ 250 films.
- Pour des films en HD de 4 Go chacun : vous pouvez stocker environ 125 films.
- Pour des films en HD de 8 Go chacun : vous pouvez stocker environ 62 films.

Ces chiffres sont des estimations et peuvent varier en fonction de la longueur et de la compression des films.

    I invite you to do the calculation yourself based on the average size of the videos you want to store on your disk.

    To find out the size of your video, right-click on your video,
    select the properties tab, and look in the size info, usually expressed in MB for videos.

    Knowing that 1 GB = 1024 MB
    you can count that if your videos average 700 MB (average quality film)
    you can store 500 * 1024 / 700 = +/- 730 videos on your disk

    For high-quality films, you can assume that a file can sometimes be 1.5 GB:
    the calculation is simple 500 / 1.5 = +/- 330 videos
    that's it.

      Hello, for this response I knew it but since I'm facing a small size problem there are 40 MB when I want to check the amount of disk space even though I haven't stored anything on this external hard drive but I can no longer remember my password it's a Samsung T5 portable 500GB; so I think it's Windows or Samsung that is blocking my system.

      Thank you for your response. It is as clear as a drop of pure water, just joking.
      Thank you.
