Avid NEXIS | F5 800TB All-Mirror, Fully populated 8x 100TB Media Pa...
Product Overview
The Avid NEXIS | F5 800TB All-Mirror shared storage system is an enterprise storage engine with Avid NEXIS Media Mirror protection enabled across all workspaces, designed for broadcast facilities and post-production studios requiring both high performance and comprehensive data protection. Fully populated with eight 100TB HDD Media Packs, this system provides substantial shared storage capacity with workspace-level redundancy built in. This configuration includes Avid Elite Support—Avid's highest service tier—for mission-critical deployments.
Product Description
The Avid NEXIS | F5 800TB All-Mirror configuration applies Avid NEXIS Media Mirror protection to all workspaces within the storage system, writing data redundantly across Media Packs to prevent data loss from individual drive or pack failures. This is the appropriate configuration for live broadcast, news production, and facilities where media cannot be recovered from backup within the production timeline.
Eight 100TB HDD Media Packs fully populate the F5 engine, delivering 800TB of raw capacity with full mirror protection across all stored workspaces. The F5 Controller ships with two 40/50Gbps Ethernet QSFP28 interfaces (unpopulated) for 25GbE or 50GbE production network connectivity. The included Avid NEXIS | FS license enables centralized workspace management and integration with Avid Media Composer, Pro Tools, Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.
Dual 220V redundant power supplies and five cooling modules support continuous 24/7 operation. Two 10TB spare drives and two SSDs are included. The system ships with a rack-mount kit. Note: Avid NEXIS | SDA or SDA+ is required for all F5 All-Mirror configurations and is sold separately.
