Hello all, I am doing some reseach in to a new computer built I am comtemplating.
Its use is for a media presentations. It will run software that will allow me to mix a number of video streams (both live cameras, and material off disks, as well as output from other computers).
I then add effects to the video, mix it and out put it to 1 or more projectors.
I would like to be able to do at least 7 high definition audio streams at the same time.
Not withstanding video card issues (that is a whole new topic), I was wondering what raid I should use? I would like a situation that can read/write data really fast, and can load up random images, and video really fast, however, if I also would like a system that will not crash if a drive fails mid show.
those 1TB drives are getting cheaper by the day.
I look forward to your responces.
