Best solution for media storage

Hi Everyone,
I am looking for suggestions/how-to on the best setup for media storage. We have two editors (and two computers - Mac Pro PowerPC and iMac Intel). We are currently using an internal 500 GB slot on the Mac Pro along with 1 additional external 1.5 TB drive. Then, on our iMac we use a 1.5 TB external drive. We use, for external drives, LaCie.
Here's our problem. We are running out of space. So, what is the best solution for media storage? Should we get a small rack for our external drives from LaCie and daisy chain them? Or, should we get a server? The only problem I have with a server is connection speed...we, most of the time, have a slow connection at our college.
p.s. here is a link to LaCie's website listing a rack...and we have the d2 drives. So, do you daisy chain them or plug each one in individually?

Any ideas/thoughts/suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone!
Thank you all for your suggestions. I agree...Drobo looks great, but I am finding more and more bad news when it comes to editing. It looks like a great solution for archiving. I received another solution with great reviews from one of my colleagues contacts. They work for a big company.
Hope this helps...something else to add to the mix.
*Our edit suite storage solution is a Facilis Terrablock 24EX unit. (http://www.facilis2.com/24ex.html) It has 18TB of space and is connected on 4GB Fibre channel to both suites. On top of that we have an Apple X-Serve running Final Cut Server that sorts and catalogs all the video we put in so network users (Mac and PC) can search and look at media from their workstations. We just put this in a few months ago. Before that we had a Rorke Data Galaxy HDX with 6TB of space on a 2GB Fibre Channel connection. ( http://www.rorke.com/av/galaxy-hdx.cfm ) It’s now a backup storage unit. Both systems have excellent performance though, we upgraded mostly for space and the server software.*
Again, thank you all for your help. I will research all suggestions.

Hi , is it possible to upgrade the internal flash storage capacity of mac book air ?

hi , is it possible to upgrade the internal flash storage capacity of mac book air ?

Yes, it is , however its very costly, and you should consider storing static media files on an external HD.

I have the G Drive 1 TB (GEN4 1TB) external drive purchased in 2010. I need to connect to my new MacBook Pro. I'm using the external drive for media storage of my video editing projects. Will a 800fw to thunderbolt adapter cable work?

I have the G Drive 1 TB (GEN4 1TB) external drive purchased in 2010. I need to connect to my new MacBook Pro. I'm using the external drive for media storage of my video editing projects. Will a 800fw to thunderbolt adapter cable work? I understand that using a USB port connection is not fast enough for video editing. I read somewhere the G Drives don't connect well to MacBook Pro.
thanks

I doubt this can be relocated or moved so you might want to just repost in the macbook pro area.

Can you afford a new Thunderbolt case and cable? any case with FW800 is going to be slow 72MB/sec and less, and any new 1TB drive is capable of 75MB/s minimum up to 125MB/sec.
Thunderbolt storage can of course when setup properly reach 100's of MB higher using multiple drives.
Use what you have for a system backup or for secondary backup storage.
you might be able to take the drive - most cases allow you to open and swap drives - and use this:

Time Capsule as Itunes Media Storage

I'm thinking about buying a Time capsule, but I want to know if that's what I really need.
1) My main problem is that I can't use my MacBook to hear music, watch movies or sync my Iphone 4 through my apartment 'cause my Library is in an External hard disk that needs electric power to function, so every time that I need to buy/hear music, watch a movie from my MacBook I have to be connected to my External HD. So, if I buy a TC can I sync/stream wirelessly my devices?
2) Also I have an Apple TV and much of the times I buy music/movies/videos from there. If I connect the Apple TV to the TC, My library stills in just one folder in the TC?
3) The TC is always on? or it starts up when a device is trying to connect to it?
Thank you very much in advance...

Please check out the following article to get one author's opinion on using the Time Capsule as a Media Storage device: theAppleBlog: Using Time Capsule as a Media Drive

In Built Media Storage Problems

Hi there,
Just now out of the blue i received a message "uncaught exception net.rim.vm.Stack Overflow Error" and have now lost everything on my inbuilt media storage. I took my battery out and received a message "built in media storage not accessible due to detective errors. Do you wish to repair now?" I pressed YES and then it gave a message "If lost clusters are found during repairs, do you want to save them?" and I pressed YES again. It tried to repair but failed. I have lost all my photos and music. Is there a way of getting them back? I also have a new 8 gig memory which i have now changed everything to save onto. Please help

Hi Carmen,
Have you recenlty taken backup of your device including in built media storage, if yes then you may restroe your data from there otherwise it would be difficult to recover the lost data.
Further try to boot your handheld by battery pull, while device is powered ON & re-insert battery after a min, then check..!!
Good luck...!!

DM 6 - Torch 9800 - backup fails when I include 'files saved on my built-in media storage'

When perfoming a device backup through Desktop Manager, if I include 'files saved on my built-in media storage' it fails with the following error: "There was an error backing up. There could have been a problem with the device or connection during the backup. Verify that the device is turned on and connected"
Unchecking this option and its successful.
Any thoughts?
I've re-installed the latest DM SW - Nove 5 2010.
BES 5.0.4
BES 10.2
Exchange 2010
SQL2008R2

My guess is that it's related to content protection, but was hoping someone else would have encountered it.
Honestly though, the BES backups have been more than adequte - as long as the user account was deleted at the same time as the device wipe.

Suppress data/Media Storage

I don't know if this is coincidence, but I started having a data hogging issue ever since my failed attempt at the system update. According to My Data Manager, something called Media Storage has used 69.5 MB in the last 13 days. In previous cycles, this app never even appeared in My Data Manager's list. 15 MB were in a 10-minute period when I was using 1 app that, as far as I know, doesn't use media. Since I was at the beginning of my billing cycle, I pretty much stopped using the mobile internet connection because I didn't want it to happen again. I also decided to install Onavo since it can block apps from using mobile internet.
Today I had to reboot my phone. I didn't even unlock the screen until 20 minutes later, but in that time, the same app (according to My Data Manager) used over 50 MB. (I forgot that 3G comes on automatically when rebooting; it was turned off before I shut down.) Onavo shows the culprit is Market Downloader, and I can't limit it to WiFi only. I don't keep Background Data syncing turned on. As far as I know, I've uninstalled every app that I installed recently (other than Onavo, which was installed after the first data hogging session).
Anyone know what this app is--and whether there's a way to stop it? Or is there a way to prevent my phone from turning on mobile internet when I reboot so I don't have to remember that annoying quirk? I'm almost ready to do a factory reset because I'd rather lose everything I have than pay for a data overage.
Thanks!

Thanks, guys.
CoasterFanFL - yes, I'm confused coz I have an iPhone 4 and upgrading to an iPhone so there is definitely a 3 megapixels difference in the camera and possibly the quality of the video recording as well. If I get an iPhone 5 16GB and I use 2GB for songs, 2GB for applications and 2GB for photos, I wonder how much GB remaining can I use for video recording in terms of minutes. Also, my understanding is that you don't get the full 16GB of data space / storage space when you get the iPhone 5 16GB out of the box. Is this correct ?

Cannot use onboard media storage - and worse

Hi,
Anybody able to help, please?
First, my torch developed a problem where it could not use the onboard media storage.
Then later - it could not use the storage card either.
Now it won't even boot up.
Clearly the phone/software is completely dead, but I have quite a lot of media files I want to keep.
I'm sure the solid-state storage is fine, it's just that the software can't get to it.
Any ideas please? thanks

Try a clean re-load of the Device software using Desktop Manager.
Also if you put your SD card in a Card adaptor and transfer any media onto your PC, you can then Repair or Reformat the SD card

Media storage: usb 3.0 vs eSata, solo or RAID?

media storage: usb 3.0 vs eSata, solo or RAID?
I need to build up my media storage on my Win 7 Pro 64 bit edit Workstation for CC 2014.
Any ideas from all of you much more experienced editors?
Thanks,
Vern

Then a single drive whether USB3 or E-sata will work. The only difference between them with single drives is latency. E-sata has a lower latency than USb3. Outside of that the speed is the same for mechanical drives.

Samsung Continuum SCH-I400 No Internal Phone Storage

I cannot download any apps and I have 0.00B availavle space under internal phone storage. I did a factory reset with no help. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi Bourgeois,
A factory reset should erase everything allowing room for apps to be presented. Please verify the steps on http://bit.ly/xa6Y5v were completed.

Verizon Cloud media storage was removed

This message appears on my Razr M phone:
As you requested, access to your Verizon Cloud media storage was removed. Please contact Customer Service if you would like to restore your previously backed up photos, videos, music, documents, messages and call logs.
Don't remember what I might have done to remove my access to media storage. Contacting "Customer Service" is not likely to be of any help because I really don't want to spend a looooong time working through all the menus.
Anyone got an idea regarding what I might have done to create this situation and, more importantly, how to reverse it?

PaulWood,
You should definitely have access to your Cloud storage! Did you recently remove Verizon Cloud from your features? Did you happen to have the app on the phone and remove the app recently?

Getting meesage internal media needs repair

Hi
Recently i had problems with handeset and it will not boot completely . It was stopping at around 75%. I took it to service centre and problem was rectified. needless to say I lost most of what what there in hamdset.
But in last three days I got message twice ( while restarting)- Internal media needs reair. I continue to repair and it works. My worry is it may again start giving me problem.
Is ther something which i can do to avoid this error?
Thanks

Hello,
No, there is nothing you can do. If the internal memory (or any of the circuits that interact with it) is damaged, then it is very likely to happen again, and indeed degrade over time. There is nothing you can do to prevent that, if it is indeed the case.
But, truly diagnosing that is virtually impossible at an internet-distance. Such things can only be properly diagnosed by a qualified BB technician with the device in their hands. If your fears are too great, then you should seek such professional evaluation.
Beyond that, the only thing you can do is to conduct regular backups...consider that the device itself is a mere commodity, but the data it contains is quite priceless indeed. You can find full backup instructions via the link in my auto-sig on this post.
Good luck!

HT1925 I'm sure its been asked/answered (regarding external media storage) but...

I have 2 computers (desktop/laptop) sharing 1 iTunes account (including iTunes in cloud). Both computers have their own external drives for the media content (basically 2 copies of everything). I’d like to use my laptop (Win7) as the primary iTunes ‘hub.’ When I use the laptop though, it doesn’t necessarily sync to the external drive and keeps defaulting media, app info & content to the internal drive (despite changing the preferences for the external drive). I’m debating reinstalling iTunes but how do I make sure it ‘defaults’ to the external drive ONLY for the media and not the HD? Also, what iTunes folders that are associated with the content should (or can) be kept (playlists, for example)?

More data would be nice.
Such as what application do you use to do your photo editing? Same for video editing?
My experence with networks storage for photo editing and little video editing I have done is that it is painfully slow. One of the primary reasons I use a Mac Pro with multiple internal disk drives. They give me access to the data much quicker then external disk drives never mind network storage.
So far the only use I have found either external or network storage is backup. They are done after hours so speed is not that important.

I need multi-system media storage advice please...

I have a small video production company; we currently have two workstations, a Power Mac G4 dual 1.42Ghz and a Power Mac G5 dual 2.0Ghz. Our workload is increasing at a healthy rate. But with more work comes the need for larger and more flexible storage for our media. We primarily work in DV and more recently HDV.
Typically my editor and I will work on different projects back and forth. What we are forced to do is copy all our assets back and forth from system to system. We have multiple firewire drives on both systems but sneaker-netting them back and forth doesn't work because normally both projects we are working on may share the same drive. So inevitable, we are forced to copy it from one firewire to another or through the network. It's not over efficient to say the least, and at times it messes up backups and keeping things correctly up to date.
What we need is some sort of shared storage that both systems can access a RAID setup at the same time, but of course has enough bandwidth to serve the Power Macs their HDV media. An Xserve is a total overkill, and honestly beyond our budget.
Does anyone have any cost-effective suggestions? I would think, bandwidth-wise, something like a Firewire 800 or eSATA makes the most sense. I am very computer savvy, but I have to admit my knowledge of the different solutions and how they could work for out setup evades me. That’s why I've come to you guys!
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!

can someone please recommend a solution that I can use to store and access all my dv projects? I'm using imovie, but soon to upgrade to fcp, and am looking at the lacie 2tb raid drives. My issue is that I do not understand Raid and how it will affect my ability to access and edit directly. I tend to like to import lots of footage (60-80gb) and then work through the editing process with all of it at my fingertips. I want a solution that will allow me to put all my video in and work with it from there, while knowing that I have the ability to recover the data should the drive malfunction. Ideally I'd store all my footage on that drive long term, but not sure if that's the best way. Somebody straighten me out on this.
It's a bit daunting. I'm not afraid of spending up to about $1500 on this, but I want to be sure that I pick the correct hardware. I do not necessarily need the ability to share over network or have multiple machines access projects simultaneously, just redundancy / stability and speed for accessing during editing sessions I guess.
thanks! BT
