Files are available to anyone with Dropbox access without needing to download, as Blackmagic Cloud Store constantly stays in sync. Users who access the files work on them in your local storage. Since there’s no storage in the Blackmagic Cloud Store, there’s no subscription or monthly fees. Other services in addition to Dropbox will be added soon.

A 320TB model will also be available built to order, at a price that is still to be set. These Cloud Store devices use the chassis of eGPU accelerators Blackmagic used to sell, which were widely praised for cooling capability and performance. Now they have speedy SSDs inside, four 10G Ethernet connections, and a parallel memory core that sustains maximum transfer speeds on each 10G Ethernet port at the same time. The array of flash memory is set in RAID 5 for speed and protection. Ethernet ports mean you can connect four separate
