From simple all-Ethernet to mixed Ethernet and Fibre, the TerraBlock is flexible and robust. Create your own facility production network around TerraBlock; add asset management and archive; allow write access to the same volumes on Ethernet and fibre connected workstations, or isolate the workgroup on fibre channel outside your IT environment. Anything is possible.
Key Feature:
Multi-Platform Shared File System
Apple OSX, Windows and Linux workstations access the same writable volume with no 3rd party software or per seat licensing, external metadata controllers or complex networking.
8/16Gbit Fibre and 1/10Gbit Ethernet
Choose the speed of access to your video and audio files with multiple methods of connectivity to suit your bandwidth needs and budget. Clients connect directly to the server, or through a switch.
Avid, Premiere and Final Cut Pro Project Sharing
Native, application-level Avid Media Composer project sharing and interactive Final Cut Pro and Premiere project sharing through the Facilis Project Manager
Selectable Data Sharing Methods
Through software, chose whether each virtual volume is designated file-level for total collaboration, or volume-level for ultra-high performance data sharing. Change volumes from volume-level to file-level for fibre and Ethernet collaboration on the fly.
External Expandability with TX16 Disk Set Expander
TerraBlock offers external expansion through our TX16 Expander for additional online virtual volume storage. Expand a single 24D up to 112TB with for a fraction of the cost of traditional server-based expansion
Pro Tools FIle-Level Support
TerraBlock is qualified for 192 tracks of 48K playback over a standard 1Gb Ethernet connection. The Facilis Shared File system provides increased performance and compatibility for Pro Tools version 9 and higher.
No Per-Seat Liscenses or 3rd Party Fees
While most shared storage systems make you pay when expanding your client count, Terrablock has no charge for up to 100 fibre channel and Ethernet clients.
Dynaraid Data Protection
TerraBlock delivers the most efficient data protection at 9% overhead for RAID5. Protection type is selectable per-volume and can be changed on the fly without data loss.
Virtual Volume Workflow and Performance
Virtual Volumes offer dynamic volume creation, expansion and allocation, as well as tolerance to fragmentation and speed degradation. Maintain 100% performance even at 100% full.
