2000 DV's Capturing Per Year - Best Approach Help

[ilw]

Hello,

I need to capture about 2000 mini dv's in a year. could someone please help me to decide in which hardware/software to use?

As of now I'm using simple mini dv camcorder and i was wondering if there is a dedicated box or something?

I'm really new to this matter so please

More info required.

Are you capturing MiniDV tapes or analog to DV format?

Do you need to log the tapes or analog source for in/out points?
In that case you need fast search/scan/scrub.

Does the capture system need to be portable?

Two thousand full MiniDV tapes would require ~25TB of disc space.

The more information you provide, the better we can reply.
