    Thanks Walter,
    Do you or anyone else have experience with the G-Technology devices?
    I guess we’re over to looking at G-Raid and Lacie for now. Just finished discussing with the team, we’re now primarily aiming for DV50, DVCPROHD and the ProRes 422 (when it ships). Would having 3 internal 750GB drives in the MacPro at RAID 0 beneficial and/or sufficient over the Lacie/GRaid solution?

    Walter, on the S2S plus the MacPro 3.0, how much “realtime” are you getting and what are the real-life Read/Write rates please.

    Thank You
    Sammy

    Wow! So even the 5drive HD array is out? “Killed” hmmm.. Were you using them as “shared” storage or pure independent storage on each computer. We’ll be using purely DVCPRO HD codec and thought we hit the jackpot with the SVRHD 2.5 TB solution and were going to place our order this week 🙁
    So any other recommendations other than Ciprico Fibre Channel? We’re pretty small shop mostly using the DVCPRO HD DV50 codecs.

    Anyone else using Caldigit? Particulary the S2VRHD 5 Drive Arrays? Any feedback
    Thanks

    Bob,

    Capture Scratch is on Medea. Trashed the Prefs and all the basics. Working with Kona 8bit to DV50 preset. All seemed well until now.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestions. I will have to find a set of drives to move 1.5TB of data.

    How do you check what applications/threads are running i.e. task
    manager with OSX. Just want to make sure nothing else is crawling the background.

    AJA IO is on the system Firewire but I am using it as a Convertor box to hookup DVCAM playout on the Sony HDV deck using Component out – Into Kona SDI and using the Kona Presets. It has been working flawlessly until just now.
    Speed Tests I did sorry forgot to mention, seems to be ok. 260MB/s Read / 160MB+ Writes

    Not sure whats going on. The only successful capture now is to turn off “Report Dropped Frames” from settings and capture that way and it worked but I’d rather not.

    The only “change” I remember is that video Drive was about 90% full before the capture, went into the FCP Capture on Media, moved old folders to trash, emptied trash and thats it!

    Isn’t that the “proper” way of removing unused projects/media?

    Any ideas?
    Thanks
