Chapter 7, Configuring Your DigiSuite LX MAX
Testing the performance of your A/V drives
¬
To determine the maximum data rates supported by your A/V drives:
1 Click the
DigiSuite LX
tab, then the
Storage
tab.
2 From the list of hard drives connected to your computer, select the
A/V drives you want to test. Use
CTRL+
click to select drives in any
order, or
SHIFT+
click to select a range of drives.
¯Note
Only your writable hard drives appear in the list. All NTFS-
formatted drives (the format required for DigiSuite) are identified with
a green icon. To test a drive, you must have at least 50 MB of free disk
space on the drive.
3 Under Test Settings for All Selected Drives , drag the slider to set the
size of the test files to be created. You can select Fill x% of disk
capacity to set the file size according to a percentage of the total
available disk space on the drives you’re testing. To get the most
accurate results, your test files should fill about 80% of the
total disk
capacity.
4 From the Test Type list, select the type of test you want to perform:
✄
Single Stream Only Tests a drive’s performance for writing
(creating) a single video file.
✄
Dual Stream Only Tests a drive’s performance for reading (playing
back) two video files simultaneously. This technique is used to
support A/B roll edits in your projects.
✄
Single and Dual Stream Performs both the Single Stream and Dual
Stream tests.
