Even a Synology RAID with 10GBe connection is going to struggle with that amount of data. Also, these 6 de-noised ProRes files (all 3840x2880) would need to be loaded into the stitching software (e.g. On our last shoot, we filmed 50 shots, so that would amount to about 10TB of de-noised original footage. So for a single shot, we would get about 200-250 GB of a near-lossless file. If we have to denoise each one of these files into say ProRes, the file size is about 10x that. So that comes to about 23GB for all files. In our case, with an Insta360 Pro 2 we record 6 of those. Let's say that the original file is a 4:26 minutes H264 MP4 with 3.9GB file size. On the one hand side, we as creators would need to create a near-lossless export version of each and every lens/sensor, which would result in a HUGE storage increase. The two main problems with de-noising VR footage in the original rectangular format is two-fold.
