Hello there,
We as a small video production company want to upgrade our existing 10GbE Network with a centralized NAS to serve as a footage server for our running projects. Up to 10 workstations should flawlessly be able to edit/copy/paste our 4k ProRes 422 HQ footage. A desktop solution like the DS3622xs+ NAS would be ideal. Upgraded with with 2x16GB RAM and a 2x25GbE extension card and 2,5" SSD cache (due to missing M.2 slot).
Because of budget, we consider HDDs for now and upgrade to SSD later (or not?). Would this configuration be sufficient enough for our needs? Does SSD cache make a huge difference for video editing, or even outbrake us?
Thanks in regard,
Martin Konrad
