Depends on your quality setting, even the highest which is 150mbps is fine on any normal hard drive

well its 150mbps which is like 18 megbytes per second - anything can handle that, even a like an SD card 

 

should not be an issue for any pc

Just about ;) I write to my WD Black 1TB when recording, and it uses it in 98%. It works, but if I want to do 60FPS in 4K when SSD caching it is.

seriously? i dont see why you would need a WD black .. a standard WD blue can write at over 70mbps even at its slowest speed, and we only need 18
