Chapter 8: Storage and Disk Performance Enhancements 53
RAID
Pro Tools 10 supports hardware-based RAID
(redundant array of independent disks) systems
for opening, playing back, and recording Pro
Tools sessions. However, performance is not
guaranteed and is dependent on a variety of fac-
tors including network bandwidth.
As with lower versions of Pro Tools, Pro Tools
10 also supports software-based RAID systems
using ATTO RAID software, which makes sev-
eral RAID volumes appear as a single volume to
the operating system.
Enhanced Support for Avid
Unity MediaNetwork and ISIS
Shared Storage
Pro Tools 10 adds the following enhancements
to working with Avid shared storage systems:
• Increased track counts and Mac streaming
support for Pro Tools on Avid Unity Media-
Network.
• Increased track counts and Mac streaming
support for Pro Tools on ISIS 7000.
• Streaming support for Pro Tools on ISIS
5000.
• Elastic Audio processing support with Avid
shared storage.
Exact track counts may vary depending on
session size and amount of RAM allocated to
the Disk Cache (see “New Disk Cache Set-
tings” on page 51).

Network Guide
