Red Station Transfer Issues

[Evaan Kheraj]

Hello Red Family,

Just wondering if anyone has any insight on the fastest way to unload red mags on a macbook pro. I am
having a devil of a time dealing with trasfering cards. Via fw800 The card gets halfway through downloading and then slows to a grinding halt. So a 64gb card takes almost an hour to transfer. This just isnt feasible or acceptable for offloadinng cards in my workflow. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Use a Thunderbolt adapter, and the Esata port on the Red Station

This combo downloads 64 GB cards to 2 separate drives in 8 minutes

LaCie also makes a TBolt adapter/hub
