The ULTRSTOR™ RS8/RS8 HDS provides up to 3.5TB of secure media storage (4.0TB at RAID 0) for any professional film, broadcast or video production/post-production facility. ProAVIO’s revolutionary RAID controller supports data transfer rates suitable for media formats ranging from DV to uncompressed HD; even 2K Film resolutions can be supported! Further, UltraStor’s I/O options make the system equally applicable for either direct attached (DAS) or shared-storage (SAN) environments.

The ULTRSTOR™ RS8/RS8 HDS has been specifically designed to operate in “mission-critical” (24/7) environments. The fully programmable RAID controller can be configured for virtually any RAID level (0,1,0+1,3,5,10,50) so as to balance data performance versus protection requirements. Background data rebuild capability, coupled with support for “hot spare” data drives, allows the ULTRSTOR™ RS8/RS8 HDS to automatically recover from a drive failure even while the system remains online. Hot-swappable, redundant components (drive trays, power supplies and cooling modules) enable system maintenance without interruption of service. ULTRSTOR™ RS8/RS8 HDS can even automatically notify system operation/maintenance personnel in the advent of a component failure.

A variety of interface I/O options are available for the ULTRSTOR™ RS8/RS8 HDS. Ultra320 SCSI connections provide maximum bandwidth communications directly with a video server/workstation. For high-performance shared storage (SAN) environments, the ULTRSTOR™ RS8/RS8 HDS can be ordered with a dual-port fibre-channel interface. Finally, an iSCSI interface option is available to configure an inexpensive SAN based on a “standard” Ethernet infrastructure.
