I have a LaCie Big Disk Extreme and it plays uncompressed 8bit just fine. Even a 20 minute show. But, someone correct me if I’m off base, in order to see the video in real time on an NTSC monitor you need some kind of video card like a Cinewave or Decklink, or an AJA io, no? My system runs a Decklink SP. But on my other system with no card and another Big Disk Extreme I can’t see uncompressed video on that monitor which is fed from a DSR 11 connected via FireWire 400.
