Sometimes do-it-yourself is more expensive than buying a turnkey solution, as in the experience of the reviewer. When your creation stops working, repair costs pile up, not to mention all the lost time trying to fix it. The great advantage of ready-made systems are that they are usually backed up by the manufacturer’s warranty, and components have been tested to work well with each other, ensuring that things will go a little more smoothly. In terms of video editing storage, although one can create his own RAID volume, the reviewer recommends trying out Pro DQ by Dulce Systems. It’s the top of the line product of a company that specializes in this type of storage. Pro DQ comes in 2TB to 8TB sizes, and ships in RAID 5 configuration. It connects directly via PCIe or PCIx controller card to get the top speeds possible. Best of all, it comes with a 42-month warranty, the longest in the industry.
