Really? Even on a high end machine?
What about professionals who take terabytes of footage? Do they go for a sabbatical to Peru?
lol
350 GB of highly compressed footage. That means it has to be uncompressed, meaning lots of decoding time + normal render time. Even on a modest workstation, I would expect about that much. Drone footage is usually small in file size, which means @350GB we are looking at a long runtime (just educatedly guessing here). Here's my math 350GB ~ 350000MB/7.5MBs(4k DJI Bitrate)/60 for min/60 for hours = 12.96 hours of drone footage. That assumes the 4K bitrate is 60mb/s. Your machine is rendering 4K DNX at a little over realtime if my math is correct. Sounds right.
What's the speed of the volume you are rendering to? Could it be that you are rendering to a slow volume and it can't render any faster due to saturating average write speed?
