Hi Everyone,

Sorry to be so quiet, just when I thought we were ready to go, we made some really exciting discoveries, and I had to stop what I was doing and spend the time to test and re-test our findings to make sure they worked reliably.

I'm posting our announcement on the board today.

Thanks for the patience, I hope you will agree the wait was worth it.

BTW our site was down for an upgrade to a newer version of the software, which was supposed to take place Sunday morning 10am our time for 3hrs, and the company we use thought we meant Sunday morning 10am their time in Texas! Which was 2am for us, so it took a whole day before we could get back online to signoff on the conversion.

Lets hope the partition size limitation and overcrank have been nailed !!

I think that partition size is limited by camera firmware and overcranking is a USB vs PCI issue.

We can hope that Ross has cracked the code without infringing upon Sony's SXS patents, thereby providing a true SATA-2 output off the Camera's PCExpress Card bus. That would get around the 48fps Overcranking limitation. We live in hope! Cheers :-)

As stated on one of my previous posts, I successfully recorded 9 hours on a single usb drive - it is possible, but I've been away filming and have had no time to persue this and find out if it is repeatable, maybe Ross has had more time and luck :-)

Barry.

Thats the only real way forward - has to be possible indeed - I'm fiddling with this now.
