About the product
Ultra-Performance and Convenience for Production Workflows
While our base model Gemini is great for everyday content creators, you are worlds beyond ordinary. Your workflow is at the extreme edge of resolutions, codecs, and framerates. We understand your need to push into an 'other world' of capability, and pros like you are the reason we created the Gemini Ultra.
Powered by up to six NVMe SSDs, you'll have the horsepower to handle the most demanding photography, video, and editing tasks you face. Edit ultra-high resolution files on the fly, ingest several media cards in parallel and render dailies without a hitch, and rip through 8K footage with up to 2381MB/s real world speed.
Beyond performance, with Gemini Ultra's seven connectivity ports, you will experience an incredible level of versatility. Use your favorite accessories and charge small mobile devices via two USB ports. Daisy chains up to five Thunderbolt devices so that you can create additional backups. Offload media cards faster and easier with the frontside UHS-II slot or external card readers via Thunderbolt or USB-C. Transfer files and work up to 2.5x faster over wired networks and enjoy increased productivity when working with NAS devices with 2.5Gb/s Ethernet. Add an external monitor with up to 8K resolution via HDMI.
