Connecting Media Storage
The workstation can be connected to two types of media storage.
■ Stone Direct XR-series disk arrays Autodesk's high-performance direct-attached storage (DAS) solution
designed to address the different real-time playback requirements of various workflows. Direct attached
storage devices provide storage to individual workstations, and can be made available to other Autodesk
Visual Effects and Finishing workstations via the Autodesk Wire network.
NOTE A Lustre workstation equipped with Incinerator does not use DAS storage. Incinerator storage is attached
to the Lustre Media Server, accessed by way of the InfiniBand network.
■ A SAN A storage infrastructure that allows multiple workstations to share simultaneous access to a
central storage enclosure.
