About our conversion services
Here are some things to know about our services. If you have any specific questions, feel free to contact us.
- If you choose to supply your own USB memory device, please ensure you have a minimum of 4GB free space per VCR tape on your device (reel tapes require more space, please contact us for details). If you don't have your own, no worries! We have USB memory sticks for sale in-store, and can advise you on which size you will need.
- The time takes to complete conversions depend on how many tapes you need converted, and other jobs in our queue. Please contact us to discuss timeframes if you have a specific deadline you need to meet.
