The Dulce Systems PRO DSqp Empty Chassis With PCIe x8 Host Bus Extender - Single is a 4-bay chassis and Host Bus Extender. The chassis holds four 3.5" SATA II 3Gb/s 7200 RPM disk drives and features a PCIe (8 lanes) interface. The PRO DSqp chassis implements the latest PCI-express Extender technology to provide fast, redundant storage with up to 8TB capacity. Its Host Bus Extender enables the extension of the computer's PCI-express signals to the PRO DSqp enclosure. It's capable of up to 8 lanes of the PCI-express speed, enabling the RAID controller to run at full speed - 20Gb/s.

The PRO DSqp chassis was designed with transportation in mind. The PRO DSqp chassis Quad Pack is easily removed from one PRO DSqp unit and inserted into another PRO DSqp Mini-Tower. Once inserted the array will appear on the desktop just as it was in the previous location. The PRO DSqp Quad Pack can also insert in the PRO DSqp Rackmount system.

The PRO DSqp chassis supports RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 6 and JBOD modes. It's designed for use in performance-intensive professional environments and is certified for use with Final Cut Studio, Premiere and other popular editing suites. It supports ProRes 422, RED R3D & proxy, DV, DVCPRO HD, uncompressed SD/HD and 2K Film formats. Pro DSqp technology affords superior workflow and supports up to 11 real-time streams, depending on the video resolution. The all metal chassis provides for more efficient cooling and looks great amongst other high-end video gear. It's compatible with PC, Mac and Linux.

Host Bus Extender
The PRO DSqp Host Bus Extender (HBE) implements the latest 20Gb/s PCI-express Extender technology, enabling the extension of the computer's PCI-express signals to the PRO Q enclosure. The HBE is super fast, power efficient and runs cool
Removable Media Quad Pack
The PRO DSqp chassis was designed with the intention to transport data from location to location without compromising RAID performance and data integrity. The PRO DSqp Quad Pack is easily removed from one PRO DSqp and inserted into another PRO DSqp Mini-Tower. Once inserted the array will appear on the desktop just as it was in the previous location. The PRO DSqp Quad Pack can easily insert in the PRO DSqp Rackmount system as well for added flexibility
Multiple Real-Time Streams
PRO DSqp technology translates to superior workflow and many real-time streams means you will enjoy your work more and get the project completed sooner
RAID Management GUI
A web-browser accessed RAID Console provides quick and easy RAID management. Should you want to change the configuration or manage the disk drives, you are just a couple of clicks away from the RAID Console
All Metal Chassis
The PRO DSqp is built with an all metal drive tray and designed to fit seamlessly in with your collection of high-end video gear. The metal frame helps the drives run cool and provides more efficient cooling for the entire unit
Unlimited Expansion
The PRO DSqp can be expanded using the PRO EX PCI-e Expander (sold separately). The PRO EX can accommodate up to 7 PRO DSqp systems. If that's not enough, the PRO EX can be daisy chained to provide a virtually unlimited storage environment
Compatibility
The PRO DSqp is compatible with PC, Mac and Linux. It's certified to work with Final Cut Studio, Premiere Pro, Media Composer and other popular editors. It supports ProRes 422, RED R3D & proxy, DV, DVCPRO HD, uncompressed SD/HD and 2K Film formats
