Im in the process of making a video lapse of my build. Have somewhere around 350,000 HD 4k pics right now. Just had the computer guy put in the biggest solid state hard drive available.

Ok, my ********-o-meter is going off on this one.
Assuming 24 fps on your finished video (typical stop motion frame rate), that's already 243 minutes of finished real time playback. Let's assume you went full on wacko and did it at 60 fps and its still over an hour and a half. I'm having a tough time believing that one but hey, maybe you actually processed that many files.
350,000 4K images is going to be at least 17 MB per image (giving you the benefit of the doubt here and assuming it's in .raw format), so you're now at 6 terabytes. There is no SSD available to consumers that will fit all those images, unless you are bought dual 4TB SSD's from Sandisk and then you're at roughly $6,000 for two disk drives. And these aren't just some disk you just plug and play into your PC and drop photos on; they are large enterprise data center stuff. Your computer guy has filled you up with some ********.
I'd love to eat crow on this and have you prove it to me but I think your numbers are inflated. Do you have some screen grabs or pics of this drive???
