The company recently announced that its North American customers can use the Built-to-Order (BTO) platform – found at the firm’s eStore – to build their Pegasus3 systems with their preferred combination of SSDs and HDDs.  This enables them to create the combinations of speed, redundancy and higher capacities they need for their individual workflows.

Those capabilities now extend to Adobe’s suite of video apps. For example, allocating one or more SSDs for cache with Adobe applications, while reserving the spinning disks for capacity, will improve the Adobe applications’ performance, regardless of the host machine’s internal memory.

“Our customers have told us they need flexible configurations, and we are meeting that need by providing BTO options with SSDs for our Pegasus3 line of Thunderbolt3 storage arrays,” said Vijay Char, president, Promise Technology USA. “We expect this to be very popular among power users looking to boost performance, redundancy or capacity, or even all three.“

On their own, apps like Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC give users tools for video editing and motion graphics. Together with Adobe Creative Cloud, they offer an ecosystem of interconnected apps, like Photoshop CC and services, like Adobe Stock, empowering filmmakers and artists to deliver stories that stand out.

“Our customers are always in need of reliable, high-performance storage solutions for video workflows,” said Sue Skidmore, head, partner relations, professional video, Adobe Systems, Inc. “It’s exciting to see the built-to-order solutions which offer customized choices for content creators.”

Price varies based on options selected, with custom-configured Pegasus3 models starting at approximately $1,299. Custom Pegasus3 solutions are available in North America only.
