RaveHD Specifications
Defining a RaveHD setup depends on a few standard configuration specifications. RaveHD is designed to take advantage of earlier, as well as the latest cutting edge, technology. You can select what you would like to use, however, these components are the primary considerations for a minimal configuration.
| Component | Option |
| Linux 64bit OS (Kubuntu 9.10 or Cent 5 or 5.5) | Required |
| AJA Kona 3 or (3G support coming soon for Canvas) | Required |
| Nvidia CUDA supported board (Recommend 9800GT or higher) | Required |
| PCIe 2.0 Motherboard | Required |
| 8Gb RAM | Required |
| Dual Core (Minimum) or Quad Core CPUs (the faster the CPUs, the faster the transcode) | Required |
| 3ware 9750 (3ware API allows for performance tweaks and drive monitoring, other Linux supported controllers will operate but will loose these additions). | Optional |
| LTC (Adrienne electronics RG1) | Optional |
| Antona Serial 6204 or 6204s | Optional |
| AJA Breakout box | Optional |
RaveHD can be connected to a SAN via fiber or can use internal storage via a controller (we recommend the 3ware 9750, but any will work that have Linux support). AllianceIT provides all the packages and rpms to make installation and setup easy (including OS).
Currently, RaveHD is available for download only. Contact AllianceIT directly( allianceIT.com) if you are interested.
