Sorry if I missed recent information about this. Can anyone explain exactly how this will work? It basically interfaces with the camera where the RAW data port would otherwise be installed? How fast can it write?

If new RAM (in the future), in theory, could be configured to write at very high speeds, could this record overcranked 4K?

Alternatively, if Red RAM could write at, say, 100MB/s, could a firmware upgrade on the camera allow for "partially compressed" 4k REDCODE at 6ofps (around 85MB/s), recording to the Red RAM, in order to put less processing burden on the camera?

I'm wondering the same.

I don't think the redcode encoder is fast enough to do over 30fps at 4k.

I think that it is for recording overcranked 4k and 2540p on board.

Nice idea.

No Red RAM is a Solid state RED Drive, containing two 32 GB drives in a stripe



RED-RAM is a special version of the RED-DRIVE chassis that has two 32GB flash memory modules instead of hard disk drives. This arrangement offers outstanding resiliance against extremes of temperature and vibration, and a very high maximum data transfer rate.

a very high maximum data transfer rate
We can only hope.:greedy:
