If it's 24bit:

Storage Space Required - 77122.8 MB (75.32 GB)
This is the approximate amount of disk space 6 hours of 26 track uncompressed WAV audio requires at 48 k / 24 bits. 

Yep.  That's what I got, then I took the short cut and said 77,122.8 MB was about 78 GB (instead of dividing by 1,024 as a true geek should have!  LOL!).

A true geek would do that calculation in their head.

I just get a huge, huge, huge drive, record until they tell me not to! I finish the job! And then I take it out and feed it to the birds while watching them dropping down from the sky!!! Then I get a new one!! And then I go to work again!!! And more birds!!! New trip to the shop for a new drive!! New job!!! Oh the horror!!! Nah, just kidding. I don't do that. I usually use my drives until they formally apply for a retirement. I just buy them really big and then hope I won't run out of space. I never really worried about that. But trying to understand this math, well simply put, I think Bitflipper had the best answer

Phew - it's time for the weekend...

I did, but dumbed it down so I can still pick up chicks birds.

50GB is a lot. 78GB is just shy of a sh!tload. Once you exceed 100GB the standard unit is a frickin' sh!tload. 

Sorry for going technical on ya, but you know how I can get after a doobie or two.

 
Can I quote you on that?

Not the doobie part. That's still frowned upon in 47 states.

Only 47?

Only 47? 

Well, it's now legal in my state (same as Bit's - Washington) and Colorado.  Don't know what the third state is...

I'll post some pics if I can sqeeze the camera into the car, next to the other thingy's

Ok, there were some rather long "smoking brakes" , so 65GB it is
