Video takes up huge amounts of hard drive space. We've been trying to figure out the best way to convert our old 8mm to some other format. After finding certain models of camcorders will play regular 8mm tapes through a DV output we started putting them on my wife's external drive. It filled up very quickly. I tripped across a $20 DVD recorder at a garage sale last week and we're just going to burn them directly. We really don't need to edit, mix, etc. Our main concern is that the tapes are getting elderly.
