Or as a number. Your choice:

        • TEXT as ISO8601 strings ("YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.SSS").
        • REAL as Julian day numbers, the number of days since noon in 
Greenwich on November 24, 4714 B.C. according to the proleptic Gregorian 
calendar.
        • INTEGER as Unix Time, the number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 
UTC.

Considering the amount of data you have, perhaps something like a unix time 
would be more, hmmm, more frugal.
