Blackmagic Cloud Store Max, almacenamiento para cine y tv

Blackmagic Design unveiled at NAB 2024 Cloud Store Max, new versions of the Cloud Store device available in 24 TB and 48 TB versions.

They also include a core for 12 RAID flash memories 0, four 10G Ethernet ports y uno Ethernet 100G, USB-C connection and Synchronization with Blackmagic Cloud in order to share files from anywhere.

Blackmagic Cloud Store Max devices offer a solution for high performance network storage and have been specifically designed for the film and television industry. Likewise, they are supported by DaVinci Resolve proxy files. Thanks to this, it is possible to start shooting, and the camera files will be synchronized in a matter of seconds so that the post-production team can start working on them.

In turn, the flash memory core allows multiple users to have access to content simultaneously. For this reason, they are ideal for sharing files between editors, colorists, sound engineers and visual effects specialists. These devices allow you to create a professional replay system by connecting several HyperDeck recorders and using the DaVinci Resolve 19 program. In addition, they have an HDMI output for monitors.

Blackmagic Cloud Store is ideal for storing audiovisual material and has been designed with the purpose of processing large files, such as those used in the film and television industry, where several departments must work on them at the same time. These equipment are capable of processing material recorded in Blackmagic RAW with a 12K resolution without any latency, which avoids the need to store it locally on the computer equipment. This is great when using DaVinci Resolve and repeating live images with version 19 of this program.

Blackmagic Cloud Store devices have considerable cores for parallel flash memory, which offers storage space. This is perfect for television or film productions where unparalleled performance and considerable memory are required in a compact design.

Las M.2 memory cards They are extremely reliable and provide great speed. The new Cloud Store Max version has twelve of these cards, arranged in a RAID 0 system in parallel, which results in unparalleled speed and guarantees enough speed for dozens of users to work simultaneously.

This model is extremely fast, thanks to the connections Ethernet 10G y 100G. The internal memory core has been designed to take full advantage of the theoretical speed of all these ports, even when multiple users are connected simultaneously.

Local and cloud

It is now possible to install a local cache with files stored on the Blackmagic Cloud website or on platforms such as Dropbox or Google Drive, in order to share the files with various locations around the world. All devices in the line maintain constant synchronization.

In turn, the Blackmagic Cloud Store Max version has a salida SDI to monitor content, and by connecting a monitor or television, it is possible to see information about the storage status, which includes a memory map that provides the opportunity to see in real time the reading and writing of files dynamically. Additionally, graphical representations of data transfers over Ethernet connections are shown.

The teams Blackmagic Cloud Store include puertos Ethernet 10G high speed, characteristic of high-end computing equipment, while internal parallel flash memory and data structures allow you to take full advantage of network capacity.

Likewise, the model Blackmagic Cloud Store Max has a puerto Ethernet 100G which allows you to increase the number of connections and obtain 24 additional 10G Ethernet ports when combined with a Blackmagic Ethernet Switch 440P unit, for example, to connect several HyperDeck Studio ISO recorders. The exceptional speed of the 100G Ethernet port makes it possible to work with professional formats, such as ProRes and DNx.

One of the great advantages is that the user completely controls where and how they save the content. There is no subscription or monthly license required, and there is no tracking of usage or information.

On the other hand, DaVinci Resolve 19 offers playback, news montage and replay tools. The Blackmagic Cloud Store Max device allows you to connect workstations with this program installed, HyperDeck recorders and remote cameras in order to deliver content through the Blackmagic Cloud platform. Additionally, the new original media viewer offers the opportunity to search for desired clips and simultaneously view those whose timecode matches on a single monitor. This is ideal when receiving simultaneous signals from remote cameras. Blackmagic Cloud Store units are the only ones designed to work with DaVinci Resolve 19.

Grant Petty, CEO of Blackmagic Design, comments: "We recently launched the Blackmagic Cloud Store Mini 16TB device. However, we needed a product that offered even greater performance and storage capacity to work with large UHD files, such as those generated by Blackmagic URSA Cine cameras. We look forward to seeing how users will use the Cloud Store Max model in their post-production workflows, particularly as a solution for live replays."
