OK !!!!!!

So i think this means i can buy me a Fc switch and a couple TB raids and plug them into the switch via this thingy, plug my new mac mini which has a thunderbolt port, to the switch via another thingy and use that for management, and eat cake when my edit is done ?

Hmm sounds too easy but lets investigate…. it may well be true

The TB card that doesn’t exist can be seen here with an intel emblem on it

Bob how are you? your thoughts are inciteful and helpful as always.
im thinking this tech could have a nice run much like firewire since there is another implementation to come out later (fiber version) but of course at the rate we are going there may be something next week.

My main reason for getting a SAN is workflow but the workflow must have the throughput i need. Just to wait and see how it goes

Well the fibre thing is my question exactly…

Will the fibre implementation of tbolt ad more capablities like networking……
This is just so interesting its amazing.

Cuz since there is a video layer as well as data, you can stick this connection into a camera and get uncompressed 444 straight to a drive and view it footage at the same time, something like a convergent Gemini.

its just a wild piece of tech that may have quite a few possibilities in the future

Hi Matt:
I understand the technology. and its MUCH better to have that king of connectivity at those speeds……IMHO

But im really hoping some nut cases (maybe Small tree LOL) develops a switch which blows everything wide open. building a render farm will be easy squeezy at that point.
Was about to drop a pile of cash last year for a fibre SAN but held off because Pro avio was changing models and the new ones werent readily available at the time. (didnt want to buy the old stuff)

Then heard about thunderbolt and held off completely because we were making out “ok”…..
But ill need it by august so hoping something happens by then

I agree ….. there needs to be LOTS answered, EDL’s , Audio output, timeline settings , media management etc etc.
But dont let yourself go crazy guys. We all made investments. me as well. but what i do know is….. wait and see all the full features first.
The announcement was no in depth enough to make a judgement. The thing is not available yet let get more info as time goes by and then we can make informed statements and or decisions

New things and ways always seem illogical but wait for more information and hands on experience then make a judgement
Everyone needs to chill. and if then u dont like it just buy something else i really dont see the need for all the rant and rave

The no tracks makes total sense to me. it takes that ease of use in the timeline you spoke about to a whole new level. You cant accidentally delete a part of a track now, (and have to trim it back in) and have to shift everything down or up. the video tracks are there but its virtual. for example u can place video ontop each other at the software will see that.
With audio , most of us mix down to 2 tracks anyway, but im sure there will be a way to patch to 8 tracks or whatever for output. we just need to wait and see the other specs as they come. Super meet is for a few nights no so ?
