Key Features:
Support 4 HDV Streams with SCSI Performance!
VideoRaid HDV is Medéa’s low cost desktop storage solution for your HDV needs. VideoRaid HDV supports editing of up to 4 streams of HDV by avoiding the bottleneck of the FireWire interface. Andits high reliability SCSI interface avoids the problems seen when daisy chaining multiple FireWire devices. Striping or mirroring multiple external SCSI devices is a breeze, while FireWire drives are problematic because the system sees external devices as “removable drives.” This means added performance and security are not an issue with VideoRaid HDV.
Flexibility to Support Editing in Other Formats!
When a job comes in that requires you to edit in uncompressed 8 or 10 bit SD in real-time, you’ll be happy to know the VideoRaid HDV can easily handle it. You’ll also find VideoRaid HDV will increase your bandwidth for DV editing and DVD authoring.
Incredible Capacity!
By daisy-chaining VideoRaid HDV arrays together, you can configure 30 Terabytes of storage on a dual channel SCSI host bus adapter. That’s over 700 hours of HDV footage!
As always, Easy to Install
Your computer sees VideoRaid HDV as one large, fast SCSI disk drive with a single SCSI ID. Simply attach VideoRaid HDV to a qualified SCSI host bus adapter using the included SCSI cable and format as you would a single drive. No third party configuration software or hardware is required.
