Nitris DX gives you the most I/O options.
Nitris DX is made by Avid which means if it doesn't work, they have to solve the issue.
Nitris DX is the only hardware solution that enables "Universal Mastering" in Symphony.
Nitris DX has a daughter card option which accelerates AVCHD handling which you said you use.
If you don't need those features, save the money and use Blackmagic as it's the cheapest alternative.
