Re: [Avid-L2] Shotput Pro vs Auto Transfer vs Prelude

 

ShotPut Pro is tried and true. IMHO - it can't be beat. Copying to multiple
redundant drives with verification - totally the way to go.

I have not yet had a LaCie rugged drive die on me yet... but we use OWC
drives for the most part.

In the part of the world you're going, I'd run with the rugged - my local
camera guys love them.

One last bit of advice - when you mail those drives back (one at a time!),
have them duplicated again upon delivery! Never can be too safe with your
"once in a lifetime" footage.
