My new editing suite in-a-box and DIT station

[Postmaster]

Inspired from one of the guys here, I build my own editing suite in-a-box and DIT station.

Screaming i7, 8 Gig of RAM, 2 Gig Nvida for Mercury, 1920x1080 display, two USB3 4 Gig RAIDs, multicard reader and HDD/SDD docking station, Laptop cooler plate with silent fan.
Everything in a nice (chinese) Pelibox.

Hell I can even edit RED RAW and uncompressed HD in realtime on that baby.

Just need to make a sun/rain shield.

Just updated my suite-in-a-box with a BlackMagic Studio HDMI, SDI in/out capture and playout box.



So now I can capture, monitor and play back/out uncompressed, compressed (motion JPEG) and even Cineform via SDI/HDMI.

OK, Frank, you totally went all out on this thing. I'm planning to do the exact same thing in a few months, but it will be my MacBook Pro and not nearly this top-of-the-line -_-

With the BM Thunderbolt i/o-box and a Thunderbolt RAID or two it should work just fine though.
Downside is, it will probably cost about twice as much, without getting any extra performance or benefit for that money (besides an Apple sticker).
I´m a poor filmmaker, so I went the Windows route. ;-)
