Pimp my Red (Rocket) cart...

[Kaku Ito]

Hello Dustin,

Which of the Cyclone did you buy? 650W or 1500W? Thanks.

 

[Dustin Cross]

I got the 650w. Haven't had any problems yet. 10 drives, LTO4, several fans, and a couple cards.

New Cart

Hey fellow DIT's....
Here is my latest cart - build with fibre glass which is strong, light and durable.
I had it made locally here in Vancouver by a great company called Dinosaur Cases.

The system is built with...
- Mac Pro 2x Quad Core (2.26 GHz)
- Red Rocket + nVidia GTX 285
- 16TB Sonnetech RAID 5 & ATTO R380 Card (Mini Sas acheiving 650-700 MB/s sustained data transfer)
- APC Battery: Smart UPS-X 1500VA
- Apple Wireless Keyboard and Track Pad
- Tangent Wave Panel
- DaVinci Resolve
- Episode Engine for transcoding

Depending on the project, I'll rent monitors ranging from cheaper Panasonic HD's to Cinetals.

I'm really happy with this rig. It rolls along really nice and can fit through any standard doorway. The monitor fits in the side which means I can pack it up and roll in less than 3 minutes.

Cheers,
Craig

Hey Craig you got a contact for me on your cart, I need to get something built soon and quotes I am getting on other makes are just not making sense, for me at least.

I'm pretty sure Craig used Dinosaur cases here in Vancouver.

Thanks Paul, trying to get rough idea how much those dino cases run for.

It's less than the Bigfoot carts. Thing is, how much to ship it? That's what you have to factor in. But Craig's cart is reasonably priced. I'd call Dinosaur for specifics.

Thought I would post some picks of my carts. I have six carts total now. Three of the wide ones, two of the narrow and one cart that is narrow and tall (not pictured). I am pretty happy with how the designs have evolved over time. Everyone that works with them loves them.
