Video Raid
Video Raid
Available in a 5-drive tower (ST) or a 16-drive rackmount (SR) configuration, affordable Avid VideoRAID disk arrays support a wide range of Avid editing systems and third-party applications via industry-standard SAS interconnect, while providing the protection of parity Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) technology. Raw capacity ranges from 2.5 TB to a massive 32 TB per editing system.
- Protects valuable content and maximizes productivity. In the event of a disk drive failure, Avid VideoRAID disk arrays continue to operate without loss of data and at full performance. Unlike other RAID solutions that may be unusable during a drive rebuild, Avid VideoRAID maintains full performance while rebuilding in the background.
- Engineered for the pace of digital content creation. Innovative striping technology ensures real-time playback of up to two streams of 1:1 HD, supported on as few as ten Avid VideoRAID drives.
- Affordable RAID technology. Utilizes high-capacity, cost-effective SATA drives for large amounts of protected storage at a low cost per gigabyte.
73GB LVD SCSI
At 10,000 RPM, Avid MediaDrive™ breaks new ground in hard drive performance, allowing you to process, store and retrieve information faster than ever before.Designed for both removable rack-mounting and interlocked stacking, the fully self-contained Avid MediaDrive enclosure allows you to choose the configuration that fits your system best.Most importantly, Avid MediaDrive features Avid’s exclusive QuietDrive technology, which dramatically reduces drive noise to a whisper, so you can listen to your audio instead of your gear. Avid MediaDrive also keeps your data cool and safe with advanced thermal sensing circuitry that enhances cooling efficiency by controlling fan speed. There’s even a built-in heat detection/indicator circuit to alert you to potential problems before either the drive or your critical data are threatened.
Manage a lot more than OMF and MXF media
Store, track, and modify media, scripts, spreadsheets, or other project-related files all in their native applications including multi-res video and audio, Microsoft Office documents, Adobe Photoshop and AfterEffects layered files, QuickTime files, PDFs, MPEGs, TIFs, SWFs, and more.
G-RAID
The Latest in Storage Technology.
The new dual-drive G-RAID2 builds on the original G-RAID design by incorporating the latest and greatest disk storage technology currently available including two Hitachi 7200 RPM SATA II hard drives each with up to 32MB of cache and the new Oxford 924 bridge chipset. The use of these latest generation components enables G-RAID2 to offer superior performance and reliability for demanding content creation applications.
Triple Interface & Storage Capacities up to 2000GB
G-RAID2 features a new triple interface design with FireWire 400, FireWire 800 and USB 2.0 connectivity. G-RAID2 is now available in storage capacities up to an amazing 2000 GB in the same compact form factor.
Guaranteed Performance
Real-world performance within an application is the most important factor to consider when purchasing a RAID system. While benchmark numbers can be used to quantify the raw read/write performance of a storage system, they do not translate in to real-world performance. G-RAID2 is guaranteed to the support the simultaneous playback of multiple layers of video in real-time in Final Cut Pro, Premiere and Xpress as shown below. We stand behind this claim 100%
