I have no experience with medio pro or lightroom, and I have far fewer images than you, so it's hard to say which would be better for an image collection that big.īut if you have many of those images with tags and editing info from CaptureOne sessions, migrating that info to any new tool should be a major consideration. Yes, I will have an ssd to put the catalogue on.ĭo you think media pro is better than lightroom? I could make a new cataloge for every year maybe. I am guessing 128k images would be a year or two. I dont know how many shots I have, but I sometimes shoot 1000-4000 shots a day. I mentioned that this was a limit to a single cataloge and could be restrictive. I dont know much about networking settings- i pay someone to do this, so I will forward this info to them. What will take up a lot of space in the catalog will be the previews. I would NOT store the catalog on the NAS drive(s), but storing the images on the NAS drive ought not be too bad. Catalogs are designed to work with large numbers of images that may be offline. They do not store the images inside the catalog the catalog just knows where to find the images and keeps track of the adjustments. If you really have 128000 image files, there are users with catalogs that big. I get a pretty reliable connection with transfer rate peaking at over 100 MBps. Traffic between the iMac and the NAS goes directly through the switch and not throught the router.
#CAPTURE ONE AND PANOLAPSE MAC#
My Mac and my QNAP NAS each have an ethernet connection to a layer 2 switch with a Gigabit switch fabric (GBE rates always possible between any two ports). Is the connection wireless and which standard? Are there video or gaming users on the same wireless network? It could be that the volume size is too large.Īnother consideration may bee how your NAS is connected to your Mac. Do you have just one volume, or many volumes? How big are the volumes?ĭo I understand ocrrectly that you have 128000 images? Are these in one shared folder or several? I'm guessing you may be running something like RAID5 or RAID6. Then, I wonder how your 18 drives are organised. If you are currently using SMB3, for example, you may find that AFP or SMB1 works better. I think the first thing I would do is discover which mechanism is being used now, and try some of the others. If you choose SMB/CIFS there are three possible protocols, SMB1, SMB2 and SMB3, and there is a selectable option to disconnect resources on drop. One thing to troubleshoot is the method of mounting the NAS volume on your Mac.
