Today, Avid announced two brand new RAID solutions, the VideoRAID ST and SR disk arrays. Available in either a 5 drive mini-tower (ST), as well as a 16 drive 3U rackmount chassis (SR), the arrays promise high performance and quality SATA-based direct attached storage solutions.
From the official announcement comes these extra details: “Latest technology SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interconnect provides simple plug and play setup, while parity RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) prevents losing media because of a failed drive. Raw capacities range from 2.5TB to 16TB per editing system.
Avid VideoRAID ST and SR have enough bandwidth to provide real-time playback of uncompressed HD media, even during drive failure rebuild mode, making these ultra-high performance arrays a perfect match for Avid’s latest generation of editing applications.”
Both arrays will be made available in the second quarter of 2008.
