Re: HD Capture: What drives to buy: RANT

WOW Bob, Harsher than me.

Look guys, Raid 0 works great and is a great solution if you need a quick and dirty playout. Something that you can re-create or move over easily. The benefit is that there is no rebuild time when you do have a drive failure(and you will have a drive failure). It is used in workflows where, clips can be moved over faster than it would take to re-build the Raid5 array.

Raid5 will cost you a bit more but honestly small shops (and yes we do even have a few of those) can't afford to have a temp device so they double up and pack drives with stuff that (Oh I gotta make sure this gets archived). Guess what Raid0, it's all gone, Raid5 there is a level of protection.

By the way we have large shops running in both modes, just depends on what part of the workflow the Rave is being used for.

Cheap is not always good.

Cheers,
Ramona
