GB Labs - Three Is The Magic Number
GB Labs is unveiling three new technologies at IBC: SSD acceleration unit for tier
1 shared storage; 4K on-set DIT device for ingest, grading and data management;
and fast, secure and flexible tape archiving and backup...
Turbo-Charged Tier 1 Storage
HyperSpace is the new SSD
accelerator unit that propels GB
Labs' Space to incredible levels
of performance. Space tier 1
storage is already the fastest and
most scalable HDD platform in the
industry. It's capable
of supporting massive
HD editing workgroups
and complex broadcast
workflows.
HyperSpace
now
helps Space sustain
incredible data rates
allowing facilities to
deploy very large HD
editing
workgroups
and work with 4K files.
With
HyperSpace,
users enjoy massive
capacities (up to 1.7PB) along with
blisteringly fast performance - but
without the solid state price tag.

Complete 4K On
Location Platform
The NEW 4K Duo On-Set meets
the needs of today's digital

Safe Storage: Every clip is copied
to the SSD array and archived
to the dual LTO-6 tape drives
which run at an aggregate speed

Ingest: Space 4K Duo On-Set
takes the pain out of the onlocation DIT process: 4K rushes
and DPX sequences are ingested

of 320MB/s. The LTO drives can
also be used to transport files and
projects to the post facility.

platform
gives
editors
and
technicians instant and shared
access to clips for grading, proxy
generation, asset management
and online editing. Standard
Ethernet (1Gb, 10Gb or 40Gb)
connectivity means that multiple
Mac, PC and Linux workstations

can connect directly with no need
for drivers or special adapters.
LTO Goes LTFS
Like all our new LTO tape devices,
4K Duo On-Set now supports
LTFS as well as the long-term
TAR archive format. With LTFS
users can mount drives to their
desktop and copy data to tape
across networks at high speed.
Uniquely, with Space LTO, Midi
LTO and 4K Duo, data can be
transferred directly to tape,
with no need to cache data
locally before writing to tape.
Why
is
LTFS
so
important? LTFS gives teams
a very straightforward and
low cost means of backing up
files and projects every day.
Tapes are guaranteed for up-to
30 years and data can be safely
stored on and off site. LTFS is also
a standard programme delivery
format, with the LTO media easy
to transport from the post house to
broadcaster.
