Record time comparison of common Sd/hd data Rates on REV PRO Media 

Storage capacity

REV PRO media have the storage capacity of up to 
80 minutes of HD and up to 4 hours of SD material, 
depending on the chosen codec and bit rate. High 
performance, sustained data rates allow for real-time 
record/play capability directly from the media. REV PRO 
allows users to record and play back two simultaneous 
HD streams with enough added bandwidth for audio and 
metadata.

durability

REV PRO media use standard 2.5-inch laptop hard drive 
components, but are engineered for much greater dura-
bility and reliability by placing only the magnetic medium 
and motor within the removable cartridge and adding 
additional redundancy to the medium. The drive’s heads 
and electronics remain in the drive assembly. 

The media can be used in harsh environments and are 
resistant to damage within extreme operating tempera-
tures, dust, wind, moisture, high altitudes, shock, and 
vibration. The Grass Valley

 Digital Media Camcorder 

(DMC) and Digital Media Recorder (DMR) protect the 
media even beyond this level.

The disk and drive have been designed to perform a 
greater number of insertions than any other type of 
removable media. Additionally, each disk can perform 
over one million record/erase cycles without failure.
