Secaucus, NJ - Panasonic will showcase the AJ-PCD10, a five-slot P2 drive designed for rapid ingest of DVCPRO or DVCPRO50 resolution video into nonlinear editing or server systems, at NAB 2004, the company has announced.

It offers a high-speed USB 2.0 interface to connect to the host computer, and through that computer to a television station’s local area network (LAN).The DVCPRO P2 product family includes the AJ-SPX800 camcorder, AJ-SPD850 studio recorder, and AJ-P2C004 4GB and AJ-P2C002 2GB capacity P2 cards*.
The AJ-PCD10 card drive will be available in May at the suggested list price of $2,500.
* Capacity on the P2 card indicates raw data capacity. Formatted data capacity will be less.
