We've already paid for the SDI cables - it was only $50 for the rental, so not a huge deal, but great to know for the future. SSD RAIDs sound drool-worthy - but I think I'll wait until prices come down a bit further. Good tips, Johnny!

I've done it hundreds of times. The cable manufacturers just want to make double their money to broadcasters! Although I never cheap out on BNC cable at the same time. One word. Canare. thats quality. --Johnny Oh also wanted to mention… you can run SDI over ’standard’ BNC cable without problems – don’t let the fine print burn you out. I’ve done it hundreds of times.
