Blackmagic Cloud Store Ultra 48TB

This ultra‑high performance network storage system is designed for demanding broadcast, live production and post‑production environments where speed, reliability and collaboration are essential. Built around a powerful flash‑based architecture, it allows large teams to record and edit media at the same time without contention, even when working with high resolution formats and multiple streams. The compact 1RU design makes it suitable for technical racks in studios, OB vehicles and central machine rooms. 

At the heart of the system is a parallel flash memory core using twelve M.2 NVMe modules. This design delivers extremely high throughput and very low latency, allowing dozens of users to access large media files simultaneously. The storage is configured by default for maximum performance using RAID 0, but it can be reformatted to RAID 5 when data protection is required. In RAID 5 mode, parity is distributed across the flash modules, enabling recovery in the event of a module failure while maintaining strong performance. 

Connectivity is optimized for modern IP infrastructures. Two independent 100G Ethernet ports provide massive bandwidth and can be configured with separate IP addresses for load balancing or redundancy when used with managed switches. This makes it possible to record and edit at the same time without either workflow affecting the other. A dedicated 1G management port and USB‑C interface are included for configuration, monitoring and software updates.

Deep integration with Blackmagic Cloud enables fast global collaboration. Media and DaVinci Resolve proxy files can be synchronized between locations within seconds, allowing remote editing teams to begin work almost immediately after recording starts. A built‑in HDMI monitoring output provides a real time visual overview of storage usage, bandwidth, connected users, synchronization status and system health. 

Reliability is ensured through server‑style front‑to‑rear cooling with four quiet fans and dual redundant power supplies. This design delivers stable thermal performance and continuous operation in mission‑critical broadcast environments.
