  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Red and Linux

in regards to a program that can open CIN and DPX, funily enough there is a fork of the GIMP called cinepaint. Its a frame touch up tool. Industry used and so forth, just do a search, i think it may even work on windows.

with the space issue. Its really depends on how many disk controllers you have. If say you had a 16 port SATA controller you could could quite easily have 16TB of data on one computer (or thereabouts, loose some because of the usual things.) and that just takes up one PCI-X slot. If youve got more of those then you could put way more in there. It more comes down to case space and making sure you pick the right components.

Hope this helps.

re: storage - consider also port multipliers - with the Addonics hardware multiplier you can have 5 devices attached to a single (e)SATA port, visible to the controller and OS as a single device. It would be quite possible then, with a single 16-port SATA controller to have 80TB of diskspace online.

With networked storage, that can be increased exponentially.
 
The HPM based on the SI chip (what addonics sells) isn't all that fast. I can't remember the speed I tested off hand but they weren't more than 120MB/s or so. It's also really finicky and kinda buggy.
