Re: Min drive R/W speed for 4K video editing

The point Sean made is that compressed codecs HEVC for example are more resource hungry then something like a raw file.

HEVC can fly if you're using hardware decoding off an I5 IGPU but if you're forcing the CPU to decode it you'll find the decoding a pain.
