Video Uploads - Created OSEdit System Diagram for video transfer. Conducted FTP testing. Investigated FTP client and server programs. Installed 'FireFTP client' and 'CrossFTP server'. Successfully transferred small files between folder on computer. Tried but unable to transfer files to separate computer on network. Emailed Elifarley Cruz for assistance - awaiting response. Data Storage - After hearing bad press about Drobo, researched a superior RAID array made by Synology - ordering tomorrow. Review: why not just upload to YouTube or Vimeo? What quality loss is acceptable?
