SEAGATE, INC.
POMPANO BEACH, FLORIDA

– At the NAB 2018 conference Seagate Technology (NASDAQ: STX), a world leader in data storage solutions, today announced the launch of a new product, and creative professional community, Collective. These announcements mark Seagate’s ongoing commitment to provide innovative solutions and platforms to support the workflows of creative professionals that allow digital content to be created, stored, utilized and shared in the most creative and effective ways. “Digital content creation is key in the media and entertainment (M&E) industry, comprising of unique moments that are the product of time and money – and often irreplaceable,” said Tim Bucher, senior vice president of Seagate consumer solutions. “We have seen an exponential rise in the amount of data created and as such, it has become central to industries such as M&E. From shooting on set through to post-production, the transferring, storing and accessing of data is a pivotal part of the creative workflow. At Seagate, we’re constantly looking to deliver storage solutions that allow people to unlock their full creative potential, and create truly memorable content.” Seagate and LaCie solutions are helping the M&E industry protect the value of this high-quality, high-resolution digital video throughout the capturing, editing, distribution and archiving process. From technology geared for small post-production houses to complex systems ideal for multi-editor environments, these solutions provide the ability to manage large amounts of data while ensuring it is secure and accessible anytime, anywhere. “As an adventurous professional, having creative freedom no matter where I am has always been important,” said Andy Best, photographer and regular contributor to National Geographic Adventure. “LaCie allows me to overcome any challenges presented by the environment or climate I’m in, providing me with an uninterrupted workflow and ultimately, a better final product for my viewers and readers.” Seagate and LaCie will also be joined at NAB by partners including Adobe, Blackmagic and DJI. Attendees will be able to take part in a demonstration hosted exclusively at NAB (South Hall booth #SL9610), exploring the creative workflow with a variety of Seagate and LaCie solutions at different stages of content creation. Using some of Hollywood’s latest technologies, visitors can learn about the ideal setup for capturing the perfect shot, how to ingest content using products such as the DJI Copilot, the archiving process when using a RAID system and how best to ultimately consume the content through media servers powered by QNAP with drives such as the IronWolf® Pro. These demonstrations will help creative professionals to manage the amount of data and tight timelines they face each day, by simplifying their workflow and making it more efficient. Whether it’s a desktop drive or a hybrid array, Seagate and LaCie can provide a range of solutions which can quickly scale up or down to accommodate any workload at any time. Sven Pape, an A.C.E. Award nominated editor who has cut for James Cameron and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, said: “Working in film and TV is a fast-paced, challenging environment and you need to be confident in the technology that’s supporting you. From editing, through to the increased data requirements of innovations such as 3D film, storage is an important part of my workflow to ensure my valuable footage is safe. Seagate and LaCie give me that peace of mind and allow me to edit as freely and creatively as possible.” You can also find more information on new products at: Rugged RAID Pro product page: Seagate ist der weltweit führende Anbieter von Datenspeicherlösungen und entwickelt fantastische Produkte, die Kunden und Unternehmen überall auf der Welt die Erstellung, Freigabe und Aufbewahrung ihrer wichtigsten Erinnerungen und Geschäftsdaten ermöglichen.
