  • 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 :)

World fastest 4T hd raid?

That is very fast indeed!

I'm holding out for a raid array capable of recording the maximum bandwidth of the RAW data port option. I don't need it to be portable like the Codex (the Codex can't record the maximum from the RAW port anyway, AFAIK). I would rather have the capacity of full-size SATA drives anyway. I could also use it for recording from the RAW port, as well as a high-performance online storage system.

What was the minimum bandwidth required for 4.5k@60fps? was it 900MB/sec.? plus overhead, lets say 1GB/sec. Even if you had a raid array capable of 1GB/sec., you still need the right interface.

The HUGE, actually now it is "Ciprico" (doesn't that sound like a antibiotic?) MediaVault 4440 can do 1.5GB/sec.! The 4210 is not too bad either....

what do bearfeets website use?

I know ATTO have a disk test but I believe you need to purchase it.. it certainly never came with our ATTO card.

Run the AJA with a console open. The reported data rates in the app are lower than those reportd in the console. which goes with what others have suggested elsewhere that it gives some give in the data rates compared to the BM app.

Also the aja test will change the second time you run it.. but 3rd will match the 1st.. 4th test will match the 2nd. Something not quite right there.

BareFeats use Disktester..

It's a really nice bit of kit. Much smaller than I thought it would be.

Heavy :)
Very quiet.. well... pretty much silent.. it's only 6 foot from me and can't hear it. Remember though when dong a single stream it's quiet. But when in fcp say, and your pulling off 7 streams of SD it will chatter as the heads jump about for all that data in other places.

Fits together very well, the sleds are good. Easy to pull in and out.

The 2 infiniband leads are really nice chunky leads.

Only thing I miss are lots of flashing lights as there covered by the door.. lol.

Led by flameop we disable file system cache.
My last results are from 16 x WD5000ABYS RAID EDITION.
We make tests with 10-90% disks full.
Our basic idea was to make cheap solution for our Serbian market and now all DPX workflows in Serbia are on our MACOLA RAIDs.War was the main industry in our country until several years ago and our mission is not so easy but we are building up good software developer team and we think that in this area exists a lot empty space. Will we fill that empty space depends only on people brainpower or brain weakness. Technology is available but everything is actually in steam machine phase. Good software developer team can make wonders. We are also in contact with one company from Cupertino (not that one :shifty: ) to organize service and support in USA for our RAIDs .
Tests are for empty and 10% ful disk first

Cheers
