Our Lowest Cost Redundant Disk Array
The new VideoRaid RTS Ultra160 SCSI disk arrays from Medéa are the ideal low-cost
protected storage solution for all DCC applications. Using the same RAID controller
technology utilized in the VideoRaid RTR series, RTS disk arrays provide data protection in
the event of a disk drive failure and offer superb performance, yet cost significantly less than
unprotected just-a-bunch-of-disk (JBOD) storage solutions.
Protects Your Content
VideoRaid RTS disk arrays will continue to operate with no loss of data and no
degradation in performance in the unlikely event of a disk drive failure, allowing
the user to complete work in real-time environments without the need for
immediate service.
High Performance, Ultra160 SCSI Interface
VideoRaid RTS disk arrays feature a high-performance Ultra160 SCSI interface
and a sustained single-stream data transfer rate up to 100 MB/second - more
than enough bandwidth to support dual-stream, real-time uncompressed NLE
systems.
Multi-Stream Technology (MSTTM)
VideoRaid RTS features Medéa's proprietary Multi-Stream Technology, a
sophisticated embedded stream handling algorithm that works in conjunction
with the system's on-board caching RAID controller to support the simultaneous
real-time playback of two streams of uncompressed video.

Ultra160 SCSI, LVD
Sustained Data Rate:

Plug &Play Installation
VideoRaid RTR (and each channel of VideoRaid RTRX)appears to your
computer as one large SCSI disk drive with a single SCSI ID.Simply attach
the array to a qualified Ultra160 SCSI host adapter and format as you would
a single drive.No third party software or hardware configuration is required.
Sneaker-Net Enabled
VideoRaid RTR ’s small physical size and on-board RAID controller enables
the unit to share files between workstations (with the same OS)via sneaker-net.
Content can also be moved between VideoRaid RTR or VideoRaid RTRX
equipped workstations by simply swapping the
removable disk drive modules.
Scalable Capacity to 9 Terabytes
As your storage requirements grow,Medéa
VideoRaid units can be daisy-chained together
for storage capacities up to 9 terabytes (9,000 GB)on a single SCSI host
adapter –that ’s over 100 hours of uncompressed video footage!
The Best Support in the Business
VideoRaid RTR and VideoRaid RTRX disk arrays are factory integrated and
tested and are covered by a 3-year factory warranty.And like every Medéa
storage solution,the VideoRaid disk arrays are backed with unlimited free
technical support and an advanced replacement policy.
The Videoguys' Insider Vol 2 Issue 2
Videoguy: Medea was the pioneer in utilizing IDE (or EIDE, or ATA, or UDMA, or whatever you want to call them) disk drives in a RAID for video editing. Don and I go way back, in fact I've still got my invoice for VideoRaid #1, shipped back in September of 1997, hanging on the wall in my office. The cost of storage was a major portion of a Non Linear Editing system back then, and thanks to Medea it became significantly more affordable. |
The Medéa VideoRaid RTS is the industry’s lowest cost redundant disk array, designed specifically for DCC applications including non-linear video editing (NLE), 2D/3D animation, compositing and game development. “Our new VideoRaid RTS disk arrays shatter the traditional cost barriers associated with redundant storage solutions used in professional digital content creation applications,” said Roger Mabon, vice president of channel marketing at Medéa. “VideoRaid RTS provides data protection and industry leading performance for these applications at prices as low as $7/GB – significantly less than what other vendors charge for unprotected just-a-bunch-of-disk (JBOD) products.”
Medéa RTS disk arrays are available in a compact 5-drive desktop tower with capacities of 160 GB, 320 GB and 640 GB. The arrays feature a highperformance Ultra160 SCSI interface that enables the VideoRaid RTS to sustain a data transfer rate of up to 100 MB/second.
In addition to offering digital content creators a high bandwidth storage solution, VideoRaid RTS disk arrays also provide data protection. In the unlikely event of a disk drive failure, the system will continue to operate with no loss of data and no degradation in data transfer rate. The ability to operate at full performance with a “downed drive” enables the user to complete work in real-time environments without requiring immediate service.
VideoRaid RTS is optimized with Medéa’s proprietary Multi-Stream Technology (MST™). MST is a sophisticated caching algorithm that enables VideoRaid RTS disk arrays to support the playback of complicated NLE time-lines with up to two real-time uncompressed video streams.
