    QNAP TS-2483XU-RP

    Hey guys, we are still in the process of replacing our old, 24bay "fibre channel attached" raid systems from axus. If it makes sense from a performance and price standpoint we would like to go for a shared storage system instead of a block level access based one like we currently have. Of...

    RED Rocket and Adobe Premiere CC

    Hey guys, i was wondering, what benefits do i get from using the RED Rocket inside Adobe Premiere CC exactly? I did a few tests on my own to figure this out and i may jump to an early conclusion here, but it seems to me there is no great benefit at all. (when playing back at least) I played a...
