Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Hi. I know it`s already been talked some stuff about this, but sill i have one dilema: i want to transcode all my old stuff for better space management.

And i have the choice of x264 software or x265 hardware encoding. The x265 software encoding would take too much time and power.

Have any of you made any comparison between the 2 options ?

The "time and power" gets you the high quality.
