"We were very impressed with the performance and quality of Enhance Technology’s HDS…the systems passed our intensive in-house tests and successfully supported 2 streams of uncompressed HD and two streams of uncompressed SD simultaneously..."

Chris Yigit - Chief Validation Engineer, Matrox
 
Product Overview

A Pioneer and leader in hybrid I/O technologies, Enhance Technology introduces the high power and dual bandwidth editing storage system, R14 HDS (High-Definition-Storage), to the NLE professionals. A densely packed 3U rack mountable RAID protected storage system, the R14 HDS embedded two high performance RAID engines that bring cost/effective and high performance with built-in OS transparent RAID engine that targets video editing professionals, studio & production houses, and broadcast workgroups for power editing usage. Intended for high resolution HD video editing, the R14 HDS enables over 350MB/s speed in real world video playback and editing which translates to over 500 MB/s in PC benchmark testing (i.e. IO Meter) The EnhanceRAID™ R14 HDS features a next generation 64-bit Scale Core storage processor capable of sustaining data rates over 265MB/Sec on a single channel (default with dual channels), and offers a cutting edge "web-based" user interface which provides complete storage control over a standard web browser. Scaleable up to 10 terabyte in a single system, the EnhanceRAID R14 HDS systems feature Ultra320 SCSI host interfaces with support for a total of fourteen (14) Serial ATA I/II disks, and can be configured into two channels, commanding seven (7) disks each. The R14 system is ideal for high resolution High Definition (HD) professional video editing certified to run Apple Final Cut Pro HD, Matrox AXIO HD, Leitch VelocityHD, etc.

Versatile RAID Storage Module

A twin-turbo charged (dual controllers) system, the R14 HDS model, is the top of the line editing appliance within the family that comes with dual hardware RAID controllers commanding seven (7) SATA disks each, producing a lightening speed of over 350 MB/s over dual host SCSI ports. It provides a transparent and driverless method of connecting external RAID protected storage to an editing workstation, regardless of your operating system or hardware, and provides the fastest, simplest, safest way to professional editing. Not only does the EnhanceRAID R14 HDS pushes astounding performance to speed hungry video applications, particularly HD requirements, but protecting the digital data with various levels of RAID protection such as basic 0,1,3,5, etc, and advanced RAID 6 level.

next generation storage engine

A twin-turbo charged (dual controllers) system, the R14 HDS model, is the top of the line editing appliance within the family that comes with dual hardware RAID controllers commanding seven (7) SATA disks each, producing a lightening speed of over 350 MB/s video throughput over dual host SCSI ports. Performance Powered by the latest Intel IOP80331 storage processor, the EnhanceRAID™ system produces an outstanding 265MB/s speed in a single channel (350 MB/s Dual Channels) to satisfy for users with large video editing, data backup or recovery, and archiving projects.

 
EnhanceRAID R14 HDS Back
Industry Proven SATALINK Technology

The EnhanceRAID system was built on the world-known hybrid I/O technology, the SATALink™, a SCSI-to-SATA converging technology pioneered by Enhance Technology to bring low-cost SATA disks to the broadband high performance computing environments. The SATALink™ hybrid I/O technology has been since helped resellers and integrators to offer more cost/effective storage solution to the end customers.
