In the face of demanding deadlines, Wink Inc., a full-service media company with facilities in Denver and Jackson Hole, installed GraniteSTOR ST-RAID, a cost-effective, Ethernet-based shared storage system from Small Tree, to improve workflow at both locations. System performance improved immediately, leading the company’s founder and owner, Jason Winkler, to wonder why he hadn’t made the switch to Small Tree’s shared storage sooner.
“I don’t think you realize how much time you’re spending duplicating and moving media until you stop doing it,” Winkler said, in reference to his company’s previous practice of swapping around drives to share media. “Our workflow improved immediately with ST-RAID in that you bring media into the system and everyone is able to access it at the same time.
