Depends on the quality and file type you are recording the VHS into. If you are paying a service to do the transfer, ask them, or if you are doing it with a gadget/program, look in the instructions/settings. My old "hi-8" and "DV" home movies (higher resolution than VHS, so larger file type) usually took up between 1.5 and 4 GB per 90 minute video, so a guess might be you could store 8 to 16 moves per 32 GB drive. Good luck
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That STRONGLY depends on how the video is compressed -- in other words, which format. However, as for holding movies, One to two hours per gigabyte is probably a good approximation. So a 16 GB device will hold around 16 to 32 hours. However, don't depend on a flash drive to be indestructible. If your data matters, store is MULTIPLE places and on multiple drives so that if something happens to one, you have another.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can fit a few, but this product wouldn't be best suited for your needs. You may want to consider a portable hard drive or SATA drive that offers 2TB's or more.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It would al depend on the file type you are creating and the size of the files. Convert a file and then query the size of it. Then, you can figure out how many you can store.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I don't know about VHS tapes, but it held over 200 pictures/phone videos with space to spare.
