Re: possible to upgrade P2 store harddrive?
by Josh Wallace on Feb 17, 2009 at 5:28:03 pm

The P2 Store has been a really useful and at times key part of my P2 workflow in the field for several years now (for short form projects). It is far more practical than a laptop in many situations (ie it's small and runs off camera batteries) and it's simplicity of operation means any muppet can perform a verified card offload for you if you're preoccupied actually shooting. If only there was some will from Panasonic to find a way to upgrade the drive size it could be part of my workflow for several more years. Surely it can be done, this is a $1050 dollar box rendered obsolete because it has a cheap 60GB drive in it and the manufacturer isn't looking after their customers by trying to find a way to future proof it. It's actually embarrassing telling people that I own a $1050 60GB box!
The affordable price of Sony's SxS cards really is starting to make me think twice about P2.
