EPIC Footage Data Management with Glyph Triplicator on 2 Esata Drive , same time .

[Vigen Vartanov]

Good day , just got my Glyph Triplicator , and starting my office test with this .
Before i start checking , want to get some feedbacks ? share some details if you are using this system .
I am afraid that test will be ok , and then one day on set i will lose both copies

I have Sonnet E-Sata connected to my MacBook , one e-sata from Sonet to SSD Reader , and Second to Triplicator .
Triplicator is connected to 2 Lacie 1TB Drives . Also want to add 1 FW800 drive , just for back up .

Waiting for your comments .

We have used the Triplicator for several projects with no real issues. The only thing that happened was a few times when powering everything back up, the triplicator did not immediately recognize the multiple drives as a set. This just required a restart of the drives and triplicator and it worked fine. We weren't worried about any data loss, because the drives would always be available individually since they were all clones of each other even if the triplicator could no longer use them individually. And once restarted and recognized, we were able to add the new days data without a hitch. I think it was probably more a matter of the cheap Esata housings we bought to use with 2TB drives than the triplicator. Great piece of equipment and makes life much easier when backing up data from multiple cameras after long shoot days. Glyph also provides great support. I will use it again without thinking twice.
