Bigger and faster
 Introducing the biggest and the fastest Portable RAID System - the PRO DSqp. A single bay Quad Pack mini-tower RAID storage designed for the Video Editing and Content Creation Professionals.
Adding on to the existing field-proven high performance RAID engine, the PRO DSqp implements the latest PCI-express Extender technology to provide super fast, low cost, redundant storage with upwards of 8TB capacity in a Mini-Tower space. The PRO DSqp comes in a single bay Quad Pack with 500GB, 1TB or 2TB pre-loaded drives.
The highly reliable high performance RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 3, 5 and 6, connects to 4 SATA 3Gb/6Gb 7200RPM disk drives.
20Gb per second HBE
The PRO DSqp Host Bus Extender (HBE) implements the latest 20Gb/sec PCI-express Extender technology, enabling the extension of the computer’s PCI-express signals to the PRO DSqp Mini-Tower enclosure. The HBE is super fast, power efficient and runs cool. The HBE is capable of up to 8 lanes of the PCI-express speed, enabling the RAID controllers to run at full speed.
The full metal secure locking PCI-express Extender Cable connects the HBE and PRO DSqp Mini-Tower enclosure, up to 10-meter can be used for machine room connectivity.
 Transportable RAID Storage
Check out the maps to the right to show the ease of transporting your data from location to location. The PRO DSqp was designed with the intention to transport data from location to location without compromising RAID performance and data integrity. The PRO DSqp Quad Pack is easily removed from one PRO DSqp and inserted into another PRO DSqp Mini-Tower. Once inserted the array will appear on the desktop just as it was in the previous location. The PRO DSqp Quad Pack can easily isnsert in the the PRO RXqp Rackmount system as well for added flexability.
The PRO DSqp Quad Pack can be stored for convenience and other Quad Packs installed to keep projects separated, or keep data secure until needed again. There are numerous possibilities for data transportation, archiving and remote locations that the PRO DSqp can provide.
RAID Management GUI
A web browser accessed RAID Console provides quick and easy RAID management. The PRO DSqp 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.
Highly configurable for single RAID or multiple RAIDs with various RAID levels are easily managed using the RAID Console management interface.
Event notification with e-mail, Event Log Views, Controller and drive temperature monitoring are but a few of the full set professional grade manager.
We are well Connected
The PRO DSqp connection is strong and secure. The PRo DSqp not only protects your data with the latest RAID options, we are also well connected to keep your data secured. The connectors used in the PRO DSqp are made of metal construction and locks securely in place to prevent accidental removal.
Standard 1-meter cable is provided with optional lengths of 3, 7 and 10-meters.
A well connected machine works more reliably.
 Unlimited Expansion
Never run out of storage! When your storage needs grow, the PRO DSqp can also be expanded using the PRO RXqp rackmount chassis or the PRO EX PCI-e Expander. The PRO EX can accommodate up to 7 PRO DSqp systems, that is a total of 56TB. If that is not enough, the PRO EX can be daisy chained to provide a virtually unlimited storage environment.
Real-time Multiple Streams
PRO DSqp technology translates to superior workflow in your creative development, many real-time streams means you will enjoy your work more and get the project completed sooner.
