Re: How do commercial studios deal with 4k or 8k?
My guess is something like HP Storageworks with a 40 or 80+ Gb backbone in combination with a decent workstation, like the HP Proliant DL 580. Mind you, I'm only guessing.
See http://www8.hp.com/ca/en/products/di...44#!tab=models and the workstation below. Keep in mind, the storage solution is way more expensive than a simple $ 200 K workstation. Last edited by Harm Millaard; August 23rd, 2014 at 09:07 AM. |

There are companies that specialise in providing storage for postproduction. Editshare is one, they seem to now have 4k 40 Gigabit Ethernet Shared Storage Options - EditShare
I assume it's similar to these: Post Production - EditShare Storage Options - EditShare |
