I just chose a number haha. That makes it much more feasible then.

Also, 1MB on full resolution. You could also downscale the images dramatically after you OCR them. So let's say we shoot in full res, OCR and then downscale to 50%. Still enough so everything is human readable, combined with searchable OCR you're down to 7,5GB for a whole month.

Absolutely feasable. Let's say we're up to 8GB to include the OCR text and additional metadata and just reserve 10GB on your system for that to make double sure.

Now you have 10GB to track your whole 3440x1440 display.

What's OCR?

Optical Character Recognition. Basically just extracting text from an image.

Optical Character Recognition

Making a program read a text in image form and make it computer-readable / searchable / selectable
