Description
Designed for feature film productions, where large media files need to be shared between multiple users, the 20TB Cloud Store from Blackmagic Design is well suited for editing, color correction, audio, post, and VFX work. It has a capacity of 20TB, which is made up of multiple NVMe M.2 SSDs, which are preconfigured as RAID 5 and able to handle 12K Blackmagic raw digital cinema files. The Cloud Store is also equipped with four 10GbE ports, which can also function as a network switch, plus two Gigabit Ethernet ports. There are also two 5 Gb/s USB Type-C ports, one of which ingests content from an external drive, while the other backs up cloud data to a USB drive. Both USB Type-C ports also support Ethernet connectivity and an HDMI output that lets you keep track of your Cloud Store's status, including a storage map, speed graphics, sync, active users, and power status.Designed for Film and Television The Blackmagic Cloud Store is the perfect network storage solution for any use! It's great for film and television where large media files need to be shared between multiple users for editing, color correction, audio, post, and VFX work. It even handles massive 12K Blackmagic raw digital cinema files. Each user gets zero latency and they don't need to store files on their local computer. It's the perfect solution for DaVinci Resolve, while Dropbox sync allows multiple disks to be synchronized in different locations globally. Then, each location gets the fastest editing experience possible, which is critical for multi-cam editing where multiple media files are playing simultaneously.Portable and Quiet Design Unlike IT industry storage products that are rack mounted and have loud cooling fans, the Blackmagic Cloud Store has an elegant vertical design that's portable. It's also whisper quiet so it can be used on location. Internally, it has an array of flash memory cards working in parallel for speed and data protection. There are also two redundant power supplies. The four 10G Ethernet ports operate as a switch so you can connect four separate computers, or they work together using "link aggregation" for a massive 40G Ethernet speed. There is also an HDMI monitoring output so you can watch a live graphic view of the storage operating on a TV or monitor. It can even be maintained and repaired! USB Type-C Ingest The USB Type-C ingest port will automatically load from any disk plugged in. It's fully automatic and you simply plug in a USB media dock or a USB disk. Ethernet-over-USB is also supported on this port. USB Type-C Backup This USB Type-C port will automatically backup cloud store files to any USB disk plugged into the port. It's a low cost way to protect your critical files. Ethernet-over-USB is also supported on this port. HDMI Monitor Output The HDMI monitor output lets you see the status of your Cloud Store in real time. Simply plug in a TV or monitor and you'll be able to see a storage map, speed graphics, active users, and power status. 1G Ethernet The two 1G Ethernet connections are provided for slower connections, such as the internet or slower computers. They are part of the built- in Ethernet switch and help keep the faster 10G ports free. 10G Ethernet The 10G Ethernet ports allow four separate computers to be connected. That's great for mobile use, as the 10G Ethernet switch is built in. Plus, all four connections can work together as a 40G Ethernet link. AC Power A standard IEC power socket is used for connecting AC power. All international AC voltages are supported, so you can use it globally. Plus, there are two internal power supplies allowing full redundancy.Flash Memory Allows for Multiple Simultaneous Users The Blackmagic Cloud Store is available with 20TB of flash memory, so you have lots of space for your business files and video media. With video as the standard for information delivery in business, that's enough capacity to store all your media in a single location on your network. M.2 flash memory cards are
