Probably, I wouldn't be surprised.
Usually when imaging Jupiter and the seeing is good. I usually capture around 25GB --> 50GB of data (sometimes more). A week of good seeing, you'll have a full hard drive. It is not going to happen anytime soon though.
It is kind of scary because of today's modern technology. 500GB of storage doesn't seem like a lot of storage space anymore, even though it is. Most people could easily fill up a 500GB HDD in no time.
Lucky I wasn't around when computers only had 2K of memory.
