First problem is the 15″ mbp can’t support the Resolve GUI.

You buy the license and then there is some setup involved, just like adding any other client… except a bit more work cause it’s on windows.

Are you trying to use it with MC and Resolve on the same machine?

Wow if that’s so you’d be looking at a much costlier solution. While a really decent performing NAS could be setup for 5-10 clients for 10-15k or so, for a SAN you’re looking at a low end of 40-50K for the same number of end users.
I suppose that even though SAN locations might be an issue with a network share, you could still be able to use media stored on the network, no? And also maybe setup disk images that lived on the network to put your projects on the NAS?

Yep. Infact stornext makes a specific software version just for that.

But it also works with full stornext licenses.

From the sound of it you want a NAS. Which some mistakenly call a SAN. A NAS is a network share, stored on physical media directly attached to server system. The volume is then reshared using a networking protocol like afp, Nfs, smb, etc, to the client systems. Best way to do this for your setup, would be a dedicated server, with attached storage… Using an aggrate link card, sharing to clients with a dedicated network for the shared volume. I’d go over to the storage area network forum to get yelled at by bob zelin about this. There is no faster way to your destination than hiring him,

Xsan is an apple branded version of stornext. Which is available on Mac, windows, Linux and some unix versions. It does not in anyway lock you to os x. Infact it probably works better on other platforms.

Functionally they’re about the same. The wave has stereoscopic modifications mapped to a page. The color has a better overall build quality, I’d go with which ever is cheaper. If you can get a deal on a used one that would be ideal.

Doesn’t work reliably. Issues come up with just higher than hd sources. Even if you’re only rendering to hd if you are using r3d or the like, you may have issues. Would recommend getting 3gb card in most cases.

For DIT work I really like the Flanders scientific Cm-170. Great 10bit panel. Come factory calibrated. Supports a ton of hd-sdi signals. And very reasonably priced.
The apple display as nice looking as it is, is still a computer display and not a particularly capable or accurate one at that.
