Sorry, I meant 4 single 10gbe CX4 NICs. Like the ones at:
Small-Tree: Intel Based 10 Gb PCIE Dual Port CX4 Copper Ethernet Server Adapter
or
Chelsio Communications: 10GBe adaptor N320E-CXA

Purchase…no…no…no… I believe in Santa 😉

Thanks for your reply… I am sure that other setups would benefit in having a SAN. And the answer I got from the Tiger tech. guys was that metaLAN is great when you need to effectively manage the bandwidth allocation, benefit from server failover, virtualization for Avid (on Windows), or if you want easy cross-platform connectivity.

To answer your question:
Our setup is cheapo – but works,

1 x G4 dual 1Ghz vintage machine with two Intel Pro MT1000 gigabit cards that are aggregated. The machines own NIC runs on the office network.
1 x planet GSW-2404SF – doing jumbo

If I should buy today I would probably buy the HP ProCurve Switch 1800-24G.

For Christmas I’d like a HP ProCurve Switch 6400cl-6XG + 4xNICs……pretty please.

Here is a little different look:

We use Presonus Firestudio in our main suite and we are planning to install the Presonus central station in our secondary suites.

Definitely worth looking at.

I use Copy cloner as my timemachine…. so after an update I suspend my scheduler until I see that everything woks right.
When I see that things are stable I start the sync-process again.

You export Alpha from FCP by:

– placing your video over the first video track. On track 3,4,5 and so on
– shut of video track number 1
– export with quicktime conversion to Animation codec with millions of colors+

The result, a movie with alpha channel.
