Re: Dual HD-SDI in to a Kona 3, from two XDCAM EX1's, for on set capture/playback/edit

[Michael Pierre] "I wonder... is it possible to "network" the esata drives together somehow ? "

I suppose you could network the computers together as they have Gigabit ethernet.... but I'm not sure the transfer times would be fast enough. The workflow is going to depend on how often the director wants to see a rough cut. You wouldn't be able to record and transfer at the same time.

You could use hot swappable drive cases, and possibly a third computer to edit and play back from. Then you could sneakernet the drives around as needed.
