New SSD 512GB + 32GB

[Brian Merlen]

Any idea how the 512 will differ on a dragonized Scarlet? I am trying to decide between a used 256 at a good price and a 512...

Welcome to over 1TB of TURBO recording media... ;)

I have to say Ketch, your rig is quite large

This is the largest and longest configuration for us, as we have decided not to use the 24-290, but it will only be used on steady tripod, and not mounted on any moving cranes.

how are you finding the rear SSD? From what I see I would be worried about knocking it as it sticks out some.
I really hope Red bring out a mini Pro IO and of course they finally release a DNxHD/ProRes module to help us owners get more Alexa gigs.

I really like your set up. For the 19mm studio set up, I will probably put the redmote on Pro IO itself, drop Quad module and set the battery/ies separately on the rail using a cheese plate.

I really like the Rear SSD Module, I ABSOLUTELY HATE to have to stop recording because of luck of media, so if RED was to release a 1TB SSD I would sale the 512GB ones and buy those, with the Rear SSD Module I fill safer.

This is of course for those type of shoots were I need the extra long continuos recording times, as in Narrative we can control the times, most of the time any ways.

I have been using it for a while now, and never had a single problem with it, as it does not really stick out that much at all in proportion to the camera line of occupied space, so it would be very difficult to bomb in to it.

The love for the Modularity of the EPIC is without end, you can literally set up the camera in any which way you want, this three set ups are only few of many I have done and tired out today, we mounted and dismounted the camera about 30 times... ;)

So are there any specs on the 512GB ssd yet?

At the moment we "only" have 8x64GB mags...

I get 62fps at RC 8:1, 5K FF with them.

What are your framerates with 256 or 512 mags with these settings?

Thanks.

Hi All,

Has there been any updates or further announcements regarding the scarlet-sized Red Mags? I recall reading a post by Jarred that mentioned the upcoming battleship grey cards had their capacity increased to 48 GB while keeping the targeted price point the same. Additionally if I recall correctly, the same post stated a 9/28/12 release date target. I can't seem to locate that post anymore on Reduser - perhaps it was all just a dream!

I've also heard recent "rumors", which I suspect are nothing more then water-cooler gossip, that the Red Mag Mini and the Scarlet sized Red Mag are being merged into one and the same, aka a bracketing sleeve on a mini can be used in place of a standard Red Mag on Scarlet(and Epic).

Any information to clear up the subject is greatly appreciated. I'm looking forward to purchasing more memory from Red soon. Thanks All.
