Angelbird solid state drive model ED361 recommended for the Accusys ExaSAN RAID storage system to be demonstrated at IBC Show 2014 (Booth #Hall 6. C10.). Angelbird Technologies GmbH, an innovative manufacturer of solid state drives (SSDs), and Accusys Storage Ltd., a pioneer provider of PCIe RAID products, jointly announced an extended strategic partnership pairing the Accusys ExaSAN 8-bay PCIe 3.0 compact storage (Model B08S3-PS) and 8-bay PCIe 3.0 desktop storage (Model A08S3-PS) with Angelbird SSD options.

The new Accusys ExaSAN B08S3-PS RAID storage system is a big performer on 4K workflows. It takes full advantage of the PCI Express protocol throughout the storage path and can copy a 1TB file in 12 minutes. Specially configured with 8 Angelbird ED361 SSD drives, the system delivers blazing-fast performance greater than 1800 MB/s, more than twice the speed of Thunderbolt. And it's no longer necessary to adapt compressed video files for viewing or editing, as these drives deliver incredibly fast transactional performance whether files are compressed or uncompressed.The Angelbird ED361 is perfect for media professionals who require SSD speed and worry-free reliability. Like all Angelbird solid-state drives, ED361 uses only the best components, and its stylish-but-tough case, milled from a single block of highest-quality aluminum, keeps your data safe. It's a perfect match for the Accusys ExaSan B08S3-PS. This compact storage solution weighs less than 5kg (11 pounds) and easily fits in any transportable cart system for on-set, on-location, or near-set use by DIT for ingest, copy, and post-production work.
