Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 4-bay hardware RAID system and why do I need one?
A 4-bay hardware RAID system combines multiple drives into a single storage unit with built-in redundancy and performance optimization. The G-RAID SHUTTLE 4 hardware RAID protects your data through fault tolerance while delivering the speed required for professional 4K and 8K video production. Unlike software RAID, hardware RAID offloads processing to dedicated controllers, ensuring consistent performance even during intensive workflows.
How fast is Thunderbolt 3 compared to USB-C for video production?
Thunderbolt 3 delivers 40Gbps bandwidth, making it ideal for uninterrupted multi-stream 4K and 8K workflows. The G-RAID SHUTTLE 4's dual Thunderbolt 3 ports provide maximum throughput, while USB-C (10Gbps) offers backward compatibility. For professional content creation, Thunderbolt 3 is the preferred interface for real-time editing and rendering without bottlenecks.
Is the G-RAID SHUTTLE 4 suitable for on-location 4K video production?
Yes. The transportable design of the G-RAID SHUTTLE 4 makes it ideal for on-location production. Its rugged construction, combined with hardware RAID redundancy, ensures your footage is protected during shoots. The Thunderbolt 3 connectivity enables fast ingest and backup of large 4K and 8K files directly to the system.
What storage capacity options are available for the G-RAID SHUTTLE 4?
The G-RAID SHUTTLE 4 supports configurations up to 96TB total capacity, providing ample space for large-scale production projects. This capacity is distributed across the 4 bays, allowing you to scale storage based on your workflow requirements while maintaining hardware RAID protection.
