G-RAID2 - The Second Generation is Here!
Introduced in 2004, the original G-RAID from G-Tech was revolutionary in its ability to support professional content creation applications via FireWire. G-RAID fundamentally changed the video storage industry by providing unprecedented performance, reliability and affordability in a simple and beautifully designed package.The Latest in Storage Technology
The new G-RAID2 builds on the original G-RAID design by incorporating the latest and greatest disk storage technology currently available - 7200 RPM SATA II hard drives each with up to 32MB of cache and the new Oxford 924 bridge chipset. The use of these latest generation components enables G-RAID2 to offer superior performance and reliability for demanding content creation applications.
Triple Interface & Storage Capacities up to 1500GB
G-RAID2 features a new triple interface design with FireWire 400, FireWire 800 and USB 2.0 connectivity. G-RAID2 is now available in storage capacities up to an amazing 1500 GB in the same compact form factor.
Guaranteed Performance
Real-world performance within an application is the most important factor to consider when purchasing a RAID system. While benchmark numbers can be used to quantify the raw read/write performance of a storage system, they do not translate in to real-world performance. G-RAID2 is guaranteed to the support the simultaneous playback of multiple layers of video in real-time in Final Cut Pro, Premiere and Xpress as shown below. We stand behind this claim 100%.
Simple to Setup
G-RAID2 appears to any Mac or PC computer as a single, big and fast disk drive. G-RAID2 is ready right out of the box for use with Mac OSX systems. A simple reformat is all it takes to ready G-RAID2 for use with Windows systems.
