Plus, if you are a data hoarder (like me) keeping the entire final season on your NAS drive, the HEVC version of S07E02 is roughly instead of 1.2GB . That means you can save space for the eventual series finale, which we all know will make us cry. Final Thought Young Sheldon is ending. Don't watch the final episodes compressed into oblivion. Whether you are sailing the high seas or ripping your own Blu-rays, seek out the HEVC (x265) version of S07E02. Your eyes—and your hard drive—will thank you.
