Kaleidescape, maker of the ultimate movie platform, has announced its largest capacity server – the new Terra Prime 96 terabyte (TB) movie server, which is loaded with every 4K title available on the Kaleidescape movie store at the time of shipment.
Additionally, the company announced its Terra Prime 72TB movie server. The Terra Prime 96TB and 72TB servers replace the 88TB server.
“Kaleidescape continues to innovate, delivering hardware improvements and frequent automatic software updates, to enrich customers’ movie-watching experience,” said Tayloe Stansbury, chairman and CEO of Kaleidescape. “These new servers enable customers to build robust libraries encompassing movies, TV series, and concerts with lossless audio and full reference video.”
Terra Prime features an all-new board design with faster processing power and faster network, for faster movie downloads and overall system performance. Terra Prime is the only dedicated movie server with 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet. And Terra Prime servers are equipped with enterprise-class disk drives, the same drives chosen by data centers for performance and reliability.
Kaleidescape also offers a Disc-to-Digital program, to assist customers with transitioning their DVD and Blu-ray disc collections to digital on Kaleidescape. This provides an opportunity for disc collectors to enjoy the benefits of the Kaleidescape ecosystem without having to repurchase every movie at full price.
Terra Prime HDD is a next-generation high-capacity movie server. It can download a Kaleidescape high-bitrate 4K movie in as little as eight minutes and serves up to five simultaneous playback zones (compact) or up to 10 simultaneous playback zones (full-size).
The full-size Terra Prime HDD 96TB stores approximately 1,600 Kaleidescape high-bitrate 4K movies, the 72TB stores roughly 1,200 Kaleidescape fidelity 4K movies, and the 48TB stores approximately 800 Kaleidescape fidelity 4K movies.
The compact Terra Prime HDD 22TB stores approximately 350 Kaleidescape fidelity 4K movies and the 8TB stores roughly 130 Kaleidescape high-bitrate 4K movies.
Kaleidescape also offers Terra Prime Solid-State (SSD) models in 31TB and 8TB, ideal for marine and state-of-the-art installations that are enabled with 2.5 gigabit Ethernet or higher and require multiple playback zones.
