Now Even Better
We’ve enhanced the original PRO DQ and it is now faster than ever plus some other nice improvements. The PRO DQ xc is the fastest PCIe SATA RAID storage in it’s class. The PRO DQ xc is fully populated with 8 enterprise class high performance 500GB, 1TB or 2TB 3.5” 7200 RPM SATA disk drives, running in RAID 3 or 5 protected mode, the PRO DQ xc can pump out over 840 MB/s sustained. That is over 100MB/sec faster than the earlier models! Want to run faster? Configure the RAID engine to RAID 0 mode and the PRO DQ will scream at over 970 MB/s.
In the double protection RAID 6 mode the PRO DQ xc at 690MB/s will out run other lesser protected RAID storage.
All this performance translates into productive real-world work flows. Look at all the real-time playback the PRO DQ xc can provide, your creativity has never been this efficient.

RAID Protected
The truth is, disk drives will fail, and they will fail at just the worst time. Don’t give it a chance to ruin your day. RAID 3, 5 or 6 protection schemes are the most cost-efficient approach to insuring workflow continuation. Should a drive fail during your last render before your final tape out, don’t sweat it, the hardware RAID protection will keep your workflow going even with one or more drives down.
RAID Management GUI
A web browser accessed RAID Console provides quick and easy RAID management. The PRO DQxc comes pre-configured for Mac OS X in RAID 5 protection mode, so it might not be necessary to access the RAID Console initially. But, should you want to change the configuration or manage the disk drives, you are just a couple of clicks away from the RAID Console.
Click the screen shot on the left to see some of the features: Instant Availability for no wait RAID format; Email notification of RAID status and events; Hardware Monitoring of disk drive health conditions and temperature; View Event logs for troubleshooting; Quick RAID set Create; create multiple RAID sets and much more.
We are well Connected
The PRO DQxc not only protects your data with the latest RAID options, we are also well connected to keep your data secured.
The Quad Channel SATA II interface connectors used in the PRO DQxc are made of metal construction and locks securely in place to prevent accidental removal.
A well connected machine works more reliably.
Tuck Away Handles
From time to time you might need to move the PRO DQ xc from one suite to anther, or from studio to on-location. The built-in tuck away handles located in the front and rear of the unit provides for convenient mobility.
All Metal Drive Tray
The PRO DQ xc is built with the all metal drive tray. As the result, the drives runs cool and provides for a more efficient cooling for the entire unit, and it looks great with the collection of your high-end video gear.
Unlimited Expansion
The PRO EX - a PCI-e Expansion Switch. It can support up to 7 PCI-e x8 compatible cards. Fill the PRO EX with several new PRO DQ or any combination of the Dulce’s PCI-e based products or even a 3rd party RAID controller!
The PRO EX can be daisy chained to provide a virtually unlimited storage expansion setup.
