The data rate for uncompressed 24p 1920x1080 (HD) video is 746 Mbps. Old SATA/150 at 1200 Mbps exceeds that by a good margin. Current SATA/300 at 2400 Mbps can do that easily. The latest SATA/600 at 4800 Mbps can handle multiple streams easily. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
