Re: [Avid-L2] Living in the last decade....

I don't think so.  I've used multiple U1s at the same time but I'm
pretty sure you can only target one at a time for output from MC.
Depending on what your stations are using to play the XDCAM files, you
could copy the entire XDCAM folder structure to multiple hard drives. 
Much cheaper and much faster.  Another option, if the stations are able
to play Sony ProDisks and handle XDCAM files, can they deal with just
plain OP1a MXF files with XDCAM50 essence? --J.B. (who also has HDCAM
tape deliverables :-( )
