Sean,
Yes. Only 1 person has write access and the same project cannot be shared at the same time. If you need to collaborate on a program, have everyone work on their own segments, in their own projects and join them together at the end. You could run into a problem if your graphics, audio, or other editors need to work on the same project at the same time.

Where I work, all 3 editors do their own thing. Sometime we swap rooms, Sometimes another editor sweetens, sometimes we work on the same project, but we always wait till the other is finished with the project & turns it over.

System is fast, reliable, and recovers well. We’ve had 3 drive failures in almost 3 years and media was never lost. We have it a hush box & it gets warm in there. That could be the cause of the failures. R&D is good. When I got the system it only had Raid 1, now it has Raid 5. The latest upgrade allows updating of everyone’s read drive w/o unmounting. I hear they’re working on file level storage…That’s gonna rock.

HTH,

I agree with Wayne. It’s not “true” shared storage. For what we need it’s perfect. Our 24D is 2 1/2 years old. Super easy to maintain. Plug & Play! Tech support is AWESOME. We had a few issues with drives & the guys walked us through them. Nno complaints.

Chris,
How’s the compression? Do I have to provide them a compressed mov so they can recompress it? Their example looks great. I’m wondering if my video will look as good?

Another related question and I think I know the answer. Are employers allowing some grace when it comes to online examples or do they expect pristine? I would guess average quality translates to average editor which translates to no job.
Thoughts?

Looks simple. Can I also use it at home with my PCs?
