Avid VideoRAID

Fail-safe high-performance disk arrays

Overview

Fail-safe high-performance disk arrays

Introducing Avid VideoRAID RTR320, RTR320X, FCR2 and FCR2X disk arrays: high-capacity ATA-based storage solutions with Ultra320 SCSI or 2-Gb Fibre Channel interconnect. Avid VideoRAID systems combine real-time performance, cost-effective ATA drive technology, and the security of fail-safe data protection in the event of a disk drive failure.



Available in a 5-drive tower or a 10-drive 3U rackmount configuration, affordable Avid VideoRAID disk arrays support a wide range of Avid editing systems and third-party applications via industry-standard Ultra320 SCSI or Fibre Channel, while providing the protection of parity Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) technology. High-performance Multi-Stream Technology handles multiple streams of uncompressed SD and HD media with ease. Raw capacity ranges from 1.25 TB (1.0 TB usable) to a massive 10 TB (8TB usable) per editing system.

  • Protects valuable content and maximizes productivity. In the event of a disk drive failure, Avid VideoRAID disk arrays continue to operate without loss of data and at full performance. Unlike other RAID solutions that may be unusable during a drive rebuild, Avid VideoRAID maintains full performance while rebuilding in the background.
  • Engineered for the pace of digital content creation. High bandwidth and innovative striping technology ensure real-time playback of up to two streams of 1:1 HD, supported on as few as ten Avid VideoRAID RTR320 drives.
  • Affordable RAID technology. Utilizes high-capacity, cost-effective PATA drives for large amounts of protected storage at a low cost per gigabyte.
