This high‑performance network storage solution is designed for professional film and television workflows that demand fast, reliable access to large media files by multiple users at the same time. Built specifically for post‑production, broadcast and collaborative editing environments, it combines advanced flash storage with simple setup and management, removing the complexity normally associated with enterprise NAS systems. The focus is on speed, low latency and seamless teamwork, even under heavy workloads.
At the core of the system is a solid‑state storage architecture based on M.2 NVMe flash memory, delivering a total capacity of 20 TB. The internal memory is configured with RAID 5 distributed parity, providing data protection while maintaining high performance. This design ensures consistent throughput and rapid access times, allowing editors, colourists, audio engineers and VFX artists to work directly from shared media without delays, even with high‑resolution digital cinema formats.
Network connectivity is optimised for modern production facilities. Four integrated 10 Gbit Ethernet ports allow multiple high‑performance workstations to connect directly, while two additional 1 Gbit Ethernet ports support slower systems or internet connectivity. The 10 Gbit ports operate as a built‑in switch, simplifying installation and reducing the need for external networking hardware. File access remains responsive even when many users are connected simultaneously.
Media ingestion and backup are handled via dedicated USB‑C ports. One port automatically ingests files from connected USB drives, while the second port provides automatic backup to external USB storage. Both ports support Ethernet over USB, adding flexibility for configuration, maintenance and direct access from laptops. Native Blackmagic Cloud integration enables global media synchronisation, allowing multiple locations to work with fast local copies of the same files while proxy workflows keep bandwidth usage efficient.
Monitoring and system management are clear and intuitive. An HDMI output provides a live graphical overview showing storage usage, user activity, network throughput and cloud synchronisation status. A subtle status light on the underside indicates normal operation or alerts users to disk or power issues. Dual internal AC power supplies enhance reliability for mission‑critical environments.
