With image resolution becoming sharper and increasing file sizes such as 4k videos, the need for faster access to data and advanced network speeds is here. Creative professionals such as photographers, music producers, video editors, and scientists whose work requires the backup and transfer of large amounts of data now have more resources than ever to study and create without the hassle of technological limitations. The new iMac Pro promises unparalleled processing speed and power for professionals to bring their ideas into reality. But what then?

Creation is one matter; backing up and sharing those creations is another. The frustration of taking hours to upload a video or share a Logic Pro project can seriously disrupt work flow. This is where Buffalo can help.

No matter what environment you are working with, 1GbE up to 10GbE, using Buffalo’s multi gigabit business switch and a TeraStation™ 5010 Series network attached storage unit will maximize backup and transfer speed. Keep reading to learn more about what the solutions can do for you.

Multi Gigabit Business Switch

iMac pro’s 10GbE capabilities can mean faster than ever upload and sharing speeds. However, users need the right switch to take full advantage of the upgrade. The BS-MP20 is a flexible and affordable Multi Gigabit Business Switch that supports network scalability from basic 1Gbps speeds to 2.5, 5, or 10Gbps. This increases backup speed and allows for faster access to your file server, lessening your wait time and reducing stress. 

For a long time, 10GbE was an expensive technology for only enterprise-level businesses. The affordability of the BS-MP20 business switch and TeraStation™ 5010 Series network storage solutions means you don’t have to break the bank for network speed.

This device is ideal for those with 10GbE compatible devices such as the iMac Pro and category 6A or higher rated cables. Even without 6A or higher rated cables, the BS-MP20 can increase data transfer speed and improve performance. The hours spent backing up and sharing large files can be cut by 5 or even 10 times, increasing productivity and decreasing frustration.

TeraStation™ 5010 Series Network Attached Storage

Creative work can be lost forever if projects are not backed up. Professionals can prevent losing their projects to theft, disaster, or accidents by implementing an affordable and secure backup plan with a TS5010 Series NAS. This 10GbE and 3rd party cloud compatible storage solution solves the problems of limited data storage space and the possibility of data loss, archiving and protecting precious work.

Those who want to backup regularly without having to add it to their to-do list can set automated backup schedules, and an arsenal of electronic and physical security options keeps projects safe after they are backed up.

Additionally, the TeraStation™ 5010 Series comes with a standard 3-year warranty with upgrade options, and the BS-MP20 comes with a lifetime warranty with 24/7 North American-based technical support.

With the right companion tools, the iMac Pro can be a revolutionary upgrade. Letting network speed or storage capacity limit the creativity unlocked by Apple’s latest and most powerful releases would be a shame.
