[Avid-L2] Re: Cost Effective Fibre SanMP Compatible Storage?

 

Typo we would need 64 TB or more in total storage.

As we had into a 4K series at work we are looking into additional storage.  We have an existing Fibre network with SanMP and the typical Avid 5200 switch, I forget if it's QLogic but it matches the kind we have for our old Unity Media Net 5 systems.  I'm not at work now to see the exact model but it's the one I see on lots of unities from back in the day.

I work primarily off a Fibernetix JBOD for online.  The idea would be to add a JBOD that has fibre connectivity to the existing SanMP network so multiple stations could access it for initial card offload and multiple stations for transcoding from the common bit bucket of copied and checksum Camera Original Files.

Apparently there is little to no storage budget, big surprise.  We have looked at an Aberdeen solution and they have Direct Attached Storage solutions but anything with Fibre seems much pricier that USB 3 or thunderbolt.  I guess this is just the nature of the beast but curious if anyone has seen cost effective fibre solutions that might work with our SanMP infrastructure?  I would think week need 64GB or probably more to store the camera original.

Any pointers welcome.
