We're testing a huge 32 TB Small Tree ethernet storage set-up centered on 5 FCS Stations.
Had a lot of problems at the onset...had the entire rack filled with those bad Seagate 1.5 TB drives...were losing a drive a day for a few weeks (red lights popping on all over the chassis) and the switch kept kicking us off network. They finally pulled the entire chassis and replaced it all with 32 - 1 TB Hitachi's (32 TB) and a faster switch. No issues after that. We are still testing it. Our main format is 1280 x 720p ProRes / ProRes HQ with some 1080i projects.
When life gives you dilemmas...make dilemmanade.
