Blackmagic Cloud Store Ultra 24TB — High Performance NVMe Network Storage for Film and Television

The Blackmagic Design Cloud Store Ultra 24TB is a 1U rack-mount network storage system built from the ground up for professional video production. Inside that single rack unit sits 24 terabytes of M.2 NVMe flash storage — no spinning disks, no mechanical latency, no performance ceiling when the whole team is online at once. It connects to your facility network through four independent 10G Ethernet ports and a dedicated 100G Ethernet uplink, giving you enough throughput to run an entire post-production suite off a single device.

What sets it apart from every general-purpose NAS on the market is how deeply it integrates into the Blackmagic Design ecosystem. The moment a camera wrapped on set and uploads to Blackmagic Cloud, proxy files begin syncing to the Cloud Store Ultra so your editors can start cutting before the drive even arrives at the facility. Full camera RAW files follow automatically. AWS S3 sync adds a second layer of cloud redundancy without any manual file management. RAID 5 distributed parity protects every byte on the drive. And a live HDMI monitoring output keeps your operator informed of storage usage, sync status, and network throughput at a glance — no web dashboard, no SSH session, just a clear display you can mount anywhere in the rack room.

Whether you are running a multi-seat DaVinci Resolve color suite, building a live broadcast replay system with HyperDeck recorders, or connecting a distributed team across cities, the Cloud Store Ultra 24TB is designed to disappear into your workflow — fast, reliable, and always ready.

Key Features

› 24TB NVMe SSD with RAID 5 protection — M.2 flash memory delivers low-latency performance even when dozens of users are hitting it simultaneously. RAID 5 distributed parity means one drive can fail without losing a single frame.
› 100G Ethernet + 4x 10G Ethernet — The 100G port handles backbone traffic for your facility switch, while the four 10G ports connect individual workstations directly. Every editor gets headroom to spare.
› Up to 200 simultaneous network users — NFS and SMB file sharing protocols mean Mac and Windows workstations connect without any special drivers. No latency fights, no bottlenecks, no reboots.
› Native Blackmagic Cloud and AWS S3 sync — Camera media uploaded on set appears in your DaVinci Resolve bin within seconds. AWS S3 integration adds enterprise-grade offsite redundancy without a separate cloud workflow.
› HDMI monitoring output + dual USB-C ingest/backup — A live graphical display keeps your operator informed of storage usage, sync status, and network throughput at a glance. One USB-C port auto-ingests from a drive; the other auto-backs up to one.

Why It Matters in the Real World

Talk to any post supervisor who has tried to run a multi-seat DaVinci Resolve suite on spinning-disk NAS and you will hear the same story — dropped frames, proxy workarounds, frustrated colorists. The Cloud Store Ultra 24TB solves that at the hardware level. The all-flash NVMe core has enough random read throughput to serve full-resolution 12K Blackmagic RAW to multiple streams simultaneously, no proxies required unless you choose to use them.

The 100G Ethernet port is the detail that separates this from every other prosumer NAS on the market. When your facility switch is already 100G-capable, this device becomes a genuine SAN-class storage node at a fraction of traditional enterprise pricing. Your editor on workstation one and your colorist on workstation two are no longer competing for bandwidth.

For broadcast and live replay environments, the Cloud Store Ultra pairs directly with HyperDeck recorders over the network. DaVinci Resolve 19 can pull ISOs from the device and build replay clips in real time — the same unit that runs your post-production workflow can power your live production replay system on the same day.

The redundant power supply design means this is genuinely mission-critical equipment. If a PSU fails mid-production, the unit keeps running. That is exactly the kind of insurance you need when a deadline is hours away.

Built For These Workflows

Post-Production Suite

Editors, colorists, audio engineers, and VFX artists all working simultaneously on the same project without file-sharing headaches. Zero-latency access to camera RAW. Proxy files downloaded in seconds via Blackmagic Cloud sync before the originals arrive.

Broadcast and Live Replay

Connect multiple HyperDeck recorders over a network switch, capture ISOs directly to the Cloud Store Ultra, and drive replay playback from DaVinci Resolve 19 — including live social media post upload. One system, two jobs.

On-Set to Post Pipeline

Blackmagic cameras upload directly to Blackmagic Cloud while shooting. The Cloud Store Ultra syncs those files so the post team can begin work before the crew wraps for the day — no drives to shuttle, no delay between production and post.

Multi-Location Facilities

AWS S3 sync keeps geographically distributed teams in sync with the same media library. A colorist in Los Angeles and a sound editor in London can both access the latest cut without transferring files manually or managing cloud storage dashboards.
