    Infortrend RAID, any problems ?

    Posted by Mcthomas on November 29, 2005 at 2:18 pm

    any experience with an Infortrend FC to SATA II RAID (single controller) ?

    does it work with Media 100 HD in a G5 2.7 without making trouble and is the 8 x drive version (RAID level 5) fast enough to handle HD material ? Which controller would be best ?

    We have the A16F-G2221 (16drives), which is our storage for Hi Def projects, and it works very well. But I would not bet that an 8-drive system is fast enough to deliver uncompressed 10bit HD. You should find a reseller that can give you a system for testing or who at least guarantees that the system can handle these data rates, and if not takes back the unit.

    Hey Floh, what are you getting for data rates and do you recommend the infotrend over terrablock & or Xraid?

    thanks
