We currently keep Heidelberg images on a network server, and are at 3TB right now. The IT manager wants to move older images on to a slower portion of the network to free space up.
Has anyone dealt with this, and if so, what would you recommend? We could always increase our network drive space, but with all the other files on it, the photography department is eating up a lot of it.
 
Any help is appreciated!!

Hi Darrin, 
we are doing that. We have a Drobo with 4 x 4 TB drives as the slow network drive. The fast network drive is a 2 TB drive with 7200 RPM and very fast access time.

slightly off-topic...but not really.

with Optovue, the time delay between selecting a scan to review & the progress bar popping up is the network/disk lag time.
this is great for identifying speed issues.

does the Spectralis software have any similar cues in regards to data access time vs. data processing time?

Yes, we’ve moved a lot of our images to a NAS for storage. We try and keep one year’s worth of images on the server. Depending on your network speed you shouldn’t notice a difference. For us it takes an additional 0.04 seconds to pull up previous images and our network warehouse is 4 miles away.

 

Thanks,

Tim

So, the question is, how are you moving the files? Are you archiving to the other network location? Or are you exporting and deleting individually? (Which takes forever!)

Darrin, i do both, just because i don't fully trust either way...

however, our data warehouse is only about 15 feet away from our photography suite. off site cold storage (1x a day archive) is about 15 miles away.
so if the hospital burns down, the most we lose is a day of data.
