Is the RevoDrive 350for video production?

[ssamhouu]

I've been reading up on the RevoDrive 350, it seems like people that do a lot of video production are using this. Because I do a bit of post-production and even some animation of clients, I am thinking of getting this. Any suggestions please!

It all boils down to how much your time is worth to you.
If your time is precious, go for the RevoDrive.
If you find yourself watching YouTube videos, TV or reading, maybe the RevoDrive isn't a justifiable expense.

We been using Revo products few years now and definitely pleased with both their performances and reliability.. We had few issues in the past with SSDs from OCZ but now I guess with toshiba in management things got way better.

Pretty much spot on... If you really want serious performance, go for RevoDrive but its a expense that u have to be willing to take.

I'm not going to spend that much on watching videos...for those hour long videos, I guess you're saying go with RevoDrive. What's the cheapest you guys have seen?

If you have lots of cash and very little free time, the RevoDrive may be a good investment.
If you have little cash but plenty of spare time, the RevoDrive would probably be a waste of $$.
If your cash and time are somewhere in between, the choice rests solely on your own judgment.

I guess we're saying the choice is totally yours.
Most members here probably wouldn't see a RevoDrive as a feasible option for themselves, so Google would be your best guide for pricing.

I do a fair amount of video editing and for the cost of a RevoDrive, there would be a number of options I would consider before it. I mean, how much time is really going to be saved?

Ultimately the RevoDrive offers the most performance and reliability. But Im guessing if you want to save some cash you could go with a RAID0 with their latest SSDs the Vector 150 that offer 50Gbs a day which is the same as the RevoDrive.
