Adobe Premiere Pro 4K Video Editing and ASUSTOR with 10GbE – A Match Made in Heaven

ASUSTOR NAS devices help professional content creators in creating projects and serve as solutions for 4K video editing. Nearly all ASUSTOR NAS devices support using SMB with Adobe Premiere Pro, enabling the use of network drives as multimedia libraries. Content creators can take advantage of NAS models with 10GbE network ports. This allows for easy expansion of high-speed, high capacity storage spaces for video editing software like Apple Final Cut Pro, Da Vinci Resolve, and Adobe Premiere Pro. If additional space is needed in the future, ASUSTOR’s expansion units can be used to attach to an ASUSTOR NAS, helping to increase your efficiency.

Adobe Premiere Pro supports network drives as storage space for projects and materials. Numerous ASUSTOR NAS models come with 10-Gigabit Ethernet or the ability to upgrade to 10-Gigabit Ethernet. This can help facilitate collaboration between multiple users while maintaining consistent transmission rates. This allows the team to individually copy videos to their computers for editing without a noticeable slowdown as well as directly open and edit the aforementioned projects. This approach doesn't occupy storage space on local computers. Editing or rendering videos on the NAS is smooth and without delays, and upon project completion, immediate sharing links can be provided, significantly boosting the efficiency of your multimedia team's projects.

Store your created content and libraries directly on your NAS while ensuring data is protected with cloud and NAS-NAS backups. Collaborate both inside the office and across time zones with easy and seamless collaboration on an ASUSTOR NAS.

Not all teams work together in the same location. Depending on the needs of a team, content creation can span multiple countries. Content creators need a workflow that is efficient in both communication and collaboration between partners in what are often tight schedules. An ASUSTOR NAS provides a variety of methods that protect and back up data both locally and remotely while also making it easy to share data that include, but are not limited to local backups, backups to other ASUSTOR NAS devices, remote synchronizations with ASUSTOR EZ Sync and cloud backups with Datasync Center. Taking advantage of these methods will ensure maximum protection from data loss.

ASUSTOR NAS devices are compatible with all types of high capacity SATA/SSD hard drives sold today. Whether you are at home or in the office, your MacBook Pro and other computers can take advantage of using Safari, SMB, AFP and NFS to connect to your NAS while AiData for your iPhone, iPad or Android device ensures even your smartphone or tablet is never far away from your data.

RAID is supported by ASUSTOR NAS devices. Install at least two hard drives to add protection from drive failure. A RAID array can protect data from hard drive failure while in some cases, increase drive performance. Your ASUSTOR NAS will remind you when one of your hard drives fails. Simply replace the malfunctioning hard drive with a new one to rebuild the array with all of your data intact.

After editing in Premiere Pro, it is advisable to export the original video files directly to the NAS. This serves a dual purpose; preserving the original files for backup and using the NAS to transcode when playing back or converting media to avoid taking resources from the editing machine.
Therefore, if you are a 4K video content creator, opting for a NAS with an Intel Quad-Core processor or higher can save you a considerable amount of time and enhance work efficiency. NAS transcoding tool used: Handbrake

Snapshot Center is a new feature for ASUSTOR NAS devices to utilize Btrfs and iSCSI volumes to take snapshots of the information inside a NAS. Snapshot Center supports up to 256 snapshots of a volume and can be done every five minutes, creating a backup that can be restored easily if data is damaged or lost.
MyArchive now supports Btrfs and snapshots. Btrfs for MyArchive supports snapshots and version history to help protect against accidental deletions or modifications.

Watching stored videos on a NAS is easy and can done on a computer, smartphone or set top box. ASUSTOR NAS devices with transcoding will automatically convert the files to the appropriate resolution designed for the device to ensure smooth playback on almost any type of screen.
