The Blackmagic Design Cloud Store Max 48TB is a high-performance, high-capacity network-attached storage (NAS) device engineered for collaborative post-production and broadcast workflows. It is designed to serve as a central, fast, and reliable shared storage solution for workgroups, allowing multiple editors, colorists, and visual effects artists to simultaneously work on the same high-resolution media files, including 4K, 8K, and even 12K Blackmagic RAW projects. The "Cloud" in its name refers to its ability to facilitate collaborative "cloud-like" workflows on a local network, as well as its built-in integration with Blackmagic Cloud for secure remote project sharing and backup.

At its core, the Cloud Store Max features a robust internal RAID array configured for both performance and data protection, delivering sustained transfer speeds sufficient for multiple streams of high-bitrate video. It connects to the network via high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, with the option to aggregate links for even greater bandwidth. Management is intuitive through a web-based interface, allowing administrators to set up users, projects, and permissions. A key feature is its compatibility with the DaVinci Resolve project library, enabling teams to store and access Resolve projects directly on the storage, with built-in version history and collaboration tools.

Housed in a compact, rugged metal enclosure, the Cloud Store Max is built for 24/7 operation in professional environments. It includes SSD caching to accelerate metadata operations and frequently accessed files. By combining massive shared storage capacity, high-speed networking, and deep integration with DaVinci Resolve, this device provides a complete, turnkey solution for post-production facilities and broadcasters needing to streamline collaborative editing and color grading workflows.
