  CalDigit and Kona

  Posted by Ron Thompson on September 21, 2006 at 3:18 am

  Any opinions or experience with this unit? CalDigit S2VR
  I need to finish building another edit station and decided to abandon the SCSI routine.

  Second system is a dual 2Ghz G5
  3 GB of Ram
  no cards yet, but most likely a Kona LH or a AJA IO.
  Since the G5 is older, I don’t want to dump a ton of money into it, but I want it to be ready for broadcast projects, graphics station, logging, digitizing, and more important, a solid backup to my main system.

  Thanks
  Ron

  I’m purchasing a CalDigit 3TB HD 10 Disk Array this week. I’ll let you know once I’ve attach it to my G5 Dual 2.5 GH machine with my Kona 3 card. Should be interesting with this fairly inexpensive RAID solution.

  I almost went for a Promax SATA solution until I saw this a few months ago.
  Look forward to your review.

  Ya, I bought the SRV2HD 1.5TB Great product. Well built/solid. Reliable. The PCI card comes w/ it and it pop right in and worked. Best price to GB ratio IMHO
  I would recommend them. Great guys to work with too.

  Thanks Chris….goood to hear!

  For the price, it almost makes you wonder why Medea and Huge don’t have similar products out!
