USB might work in a pinch, but that pinch is where your reputation goes down the drain.

For example, if you’re laying off to tape on a tight deadline, and you get a glitch everytime you edit to tape (albeit at a different spot) then the slightly higher price for a better drive subsystem seems money well spent.

This board is biased in favor of a professional way of working, which means reliability under all circumstances.

For the customer, any technical glitch is a failing of the editor.

How do you guys feel about a G-Tech “G-Raid2” connected to my iMac (2.4 Intel Core 2 Duo) via Firewire 800 for editing ProRes 145? Is it really better than, say, a single LaCie d2 Quadra drive via Firewire 800?

[David Roth weiss]

The two drives in the G-Raid can be configured three ways, as two independent single drives ( JBOD), as Raid-0 (the two drives striped together), or as Raid-1 (mirrored).

If the two drives in the G-Raid are striped together in a Raid-0 (as it comes from the factory) the throughput will be considerably higher (nearly 2x) that a single drive.

You use LOG AND TRANSFER…you use that for all tapeless formats, and firewire is not needed. You only need firewire for TAPE capture.
