Built on StorNext 5 collaboration and workflow software, it brings the capabilities of Pro Solutions to audience of media professionals in post and broadcast as well as those managing corporate and government video.

Dave Van Hoy, president, Advanced Systems Group, said: “StorNext Pro Foundation is a great solution for smaller workgroups. It delivers the power of Quantum’s StorNext 5 software in a complete and Xsan-compatible system designed specifically for small workgroups, providing optimized performance, reliability and service.

Alex Grossman, VP, media and entertainment, Quantum, commented: “Like those in larger organizations, media professionals in smaller workgroups need a high-performance storage platform that enables them to create, share and fully leverage their content, but one that is tailored to them. That’s why we developed StorNext Pro Foundation – these workgroups can now benefit from the same award-winning technology used by top media companies worldwide to meet their operational and business needs.

High-Performance Solution

  • Ready to deploy within new or existing networks, StorNext Pro Foundation gives smaller production workgroups a high-performance and attractively priced solution for managing content from ingest to delivery to archive.

Xsan Compatibility

  • Current StorNext users can also leverage StorNext Pro Foundation to add smaller workgroups for graphics, rendering and EFX.

Configurations and Support

  • StorNext Pro Foundation comes in either 48TB or 96TB configurations, which respectively support five and seven simultaneous Xsan/Windows/Linux SAN clients, including two Windows/Linux SAN clients as core system components.

  • Either configuration can support up to four file systems (volumes) comprising 100 million files.

  • The 48TB configuration is upgradable to 96TB.

  • Customers have the option of purchasing a StorNext AEL500 tape archive with either the 48TB or the 96TB configuration.
