On what machines are you getting network disconnects?
I have a number of Nehalem 3GHz machines and none of them have issues with it.
ProTools is a beast, and the main reason that we still run a standard server setup together with “sneakernet” rather than a proper SAN model. But since we also use Nuendo that works with any kind of storage I think the time has come to do something about it.Bob you wrote:”PT guys don’t need 4 terabytes of storage – never have. ” What do you base this on?
For a feature I will use between 500GB to a TB of local storage. I need a local fast backup (double the amount) and I might need to work on two films, hey presto that could be as much as 4 TB.
Even us audio folks use a lot of data these days just saying 🙂
