Since SSDs are available now at 128GB and will soon be available up to 512GB, have you looked into using these beasts? Some of the best drives can do 70MB/s sustained writes and can presumably handle 4K just as well as the RED CF cards.

The main issues noclip are street pricing and actual availability. There seems to be more PR than product at the moment.
But its certainly something that we have keen interest in utilizing.

Yeah, I'm eagerly awaiting the SSD recording module from RED. There's no way I'm using spinning platter drives for footage acquisition on set. It's either CF or SSD for me.

Yeah, the pricing for these drives is out of this world. I looked up the cost, and wasn't sure if what I found were even correct numbers they were so high. It's like you're paying for the development of the prototype.

As the vendors of these drives want to penetrate the laptop computer market, they have every incentive to drop prices as quickly as possible.
