DASH Pictures Enhances Their Workflow with QNAP NAS & Kingston SSDs
For media productions large and small—managing workflows throughout the process is key! And when it comes to storage, its data transfer speed can make a huge difference in the logistics of production and keeping to tight schedules.
Three-time Emmy-nominated film and television production company DASH Pictures was experiencing the first-hand impacts of slow HDD storage. Shooting documentary-style content with multiple cameras in remote locations without internet—or even power—left them with an overwhelming amount of data at the end of the day.
The physical limitations of spinning drives required the team to run an overnight shift to transfer and back up data all night to be ready to continue shooting the next day. Storage was a further bottleneck when it came to post-production. The slow data transfer speeds of HDDs severely hindered their workflow, leading to frustrating delays in the editing, colour grading, and visual effects processes.
Given these challenges when shooting the first season of Fantastic Friends—their latest travel show with “Weasley twins” James and Oliver Phelps—it was important that they solve these when it came to season two.
They worked with Kingston on a solution that empowers their on-location and post-production processes with fast SSD storage, transforming the production experience. As a result, it has allowed DASH Pictures to be more agile, do more with less, and grow as an organization.

Supporting 12 x U.2 NVMe PCIe Gen 4 / SATA SSD storage, the TS-h1290FX is a cost-efficient and powerful all-flash NAS. With a sleek design and near-silent cooling, the TS-h1290FX seamlessly integrates into cosy studio/office surroundings. Equipped with an AMD EPYC™ 16 core 7302P/8 core 7232P processor and built-in 25GbE connectivity, the TS-h1290FX can tackle the heaviest of workloads and enables smooth file transfer, display, and real-time editing of 4K/8K media. The TS-h1290FX also features a ZFS-based operating system to ensure data integrity while supporting inline data deduplication and compression for optimal storage utilization. Price-competitive, high-performance, and easily scalable—the TS-h1290FX is here to streamline your backup, collaboration, and video editing/storage workflows.
Accelerate file access and sharing with two built-in 25GbE SFP28 ports and two 2.5GbE RJ45 ports.
Install network cards, graphics cards, and other PCIe Gen 4 cards to boost application performance and system functionality.
Maximise SSD performance and lifespan with inline data deduplication, compression, Pool Over-provisioning, and TRIM.
The TS-h1290FX is ideal for video editing teams as it is fully compatible with mainstream software solutions including Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro X, and DaVinci Resolve. For bandwidth-demanding challenges such as 4K/8K video editing or collaborative editing, the TS-h1290FX has you and your team covered.
The TS-h1290FX is armed with 2nd Gen AMD EPYC™ 7002 series processors (Rome), based on the “Zen 2” architecture with breakthrough 7nm process technology to deliver aggressive performance. With DDR4 ECC (Error Correcting Code) memory that detects and corrects single-bit memory errors for higher reliability, the TS-h1290FX provides 8-channel modules and 8 Long-DIMM slots to fulfil memory-intensive workloads (expandable up to 1TB DDR4 memory). The TS-h1290FX also features AES-NI encryption to maintain the confidentiality of your data without impacting system performance.
Your team needs a high-speed environment and productivity boost, and the TS-h1290FX delivers with two 25GbE SFP28 ports and two 2.5GbE RJ45 (2.5G/1G/100M) ports. When used with QNAP’s PCIe network cards, the TS-h1290FX can directly connect to up to 20 PC/workstations - no switch required.
QuTS hero supports advanced block-based data reduction technologies (including inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction) to reduce file sizes, conserve storage capacity, and optimize performance. For example, if 20 virtual machines on a NAS are replicated using the same template, then storage space requirements for all 20 virtual machines can be reduced by up to 95%. Whether acting as primary or backup storage, the TS-h1290FX optimizes storage utilization to provide a reliable storage cornerstone in the Big Data era.
