Editing Uncompressed High Def on G5?
Hi guys,
We are intending to capture uncompressed Hi Def Video via SDI into a Quad PowerPC G5(woodcrest), with 8 gigs of RAM. We have the a 1.5 year old Xserve RAID, 2.73Tb, and were looking to capture with the Blackmagic HD Extreme Card.
Do you guys foresee any problems/dropped frames/crashes/etc?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Joe,
G5s are certainly capable of doing uncompressed HiDef video. The only bottleneck in the setup will be the speed of your disk drives. The Xserve RAID should be ok.

just make sure you are running raid 1 across the entire raid frame, i’d have at minimum 4 drives per side and you’ll be fine.
