Ardis Technologies presents its DynamicDrivePool as the basis for using MXF (29/8/2008)

Ardis Technologies, the storage provider for Pro Video, Film and Audio presents the DynamicDrivePool as the basic requirement to achieve long expected Project and File Level based Sharing between post production applications from Avid, Final Cut Pro, Pro Tools and others based on MXF.

As a worldwide first, Ardis Technologies has succeeded in developing their RAID based storage system as the basis for project and file level sharing between video, audio and film post production applications from different manufacturers at very high bandwidths using standard Ethernet providing users with simultaneous read and write access to the same drive/volume.

Based on these DDP features MXF comes into play as a comtainer format to allow a variety of applications to instantly use an MXF file after it has been ingested on the DDP.

P2 MXF files stored on the DDP can instantly be used by Avid applications on PC and Mac, Final Cut Pro with MXF4QT from HPA and Pro Tools on PC and Mac. XDCAM MXF files ingested on the DDP via Avid/PC and Tobbogan MediaTransfer from Mog Solutions can directly be used by Avid, Final Cut Pro with MXF4QT and Pro Tools on Mac or PC. XDCAM MXF files stored on the DDP can instantly be used by Final Cut Pro and Pro Tools with MXF4Q and converted for use in Avid.

The DDP delivers SAN speed with NAS functionality in combination with ease of installation, operation and maintenance at a very competitive price out of one box.
