UPDATE FROM MABULA

I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.

 

Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.

 

APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46.  Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.

Hi all,

My new image processing workstation is at last being built by Velocity PC. The disk configuration will be a 1-Terabyte SSD boot drive, 2 1-Terabyte SSDs in RAID 0 configuration, and a 10 Terabyte mechanical HDD. 

My plan was to use drive 1 for software, the RAID array for all processing, and the HDD for bulk storage of all my raw files and final images. What I was wondering was, does it make sense to move all the image files for an object to the RAID array for processing or can I leave them on the HDD and just keep the working directories on the array? Or is there a better way to go?

Thanks, Wayne

Good question, I think you can indeed load images in from another internal drive as long as your working directory is on your fastest drive. You may check using some disk utility perhaps to see where all the disk activity is taking place during processing to be sure.
