 It is time to retire the “old” video editing computer that I built for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 in early 2009.

 The high-performance video RAID5 you need for today’s modern Mac-based video editing systems
As many ProVideo Coalition readers may recall, I have written about disk arrays from PROMISE before, although the last time it was primarily to be used with a computer with an eSATA port.

The options so far include a high-end professional RAID from Promise, an expensive portable RAID from LaCie, a pricey display from Apple, and a $50 cable necessary to connect them all. However, a number of companies in attendance at CES had some interesting products to show us, most of which will hit the market this year. Though Apple laun
