HighPoint Technologies announced a major joint showcase at Inter BEE 2025 (November 19-21, Makuhari Messe, Chiba, Japan). In a strategic, performance-driven collaboration with ASK Corporation (Japan’s premier IT distributor), the companies will unveil a unified, state-of-the-art storage solution engineered to meet and surpass the extreme data demands of professional 8K video post-production workflows. The demonstration will spotlight the powerful synergy between HighPoint’s class-leading PCIe Gen5 NVMe RAID Add-in-Cards (AICs) and the blazing-fast sequential performance of Samsung's 9100 PRO and 990 PRO M.2 NVMe SSDs. This optimized platform, hosted within a Lenovo ThinkStation P8 media workstation, is specifically designed to eliminate I/O saturation and latency for high-fidelity content creation.

The Live Performance Showcase: Accelerated 8K Workflows
The Inter BEE showcase is strategically designed to demonstrate both the guaranteed real-world efficiency and the maximum theoretical potential of the next-generation Gen5 NVMe solution for post-production professionals:

Guaranteed 50.5GB/s RAW Footage Ingestion (The Production Benchmark): The first demonstration will validate sustained, real-world performance. Utilizing the file transfer utility FastCopy, the system will execute an extremely high-speed, parallel data transfer between two HighPoint Gen5 x16 NVMe AICs (Rocket 7608A to Rocket 7604A), achieving a consistent transfer speed of up to 50.5GB/s (Gigabytes per second). This verifiable metric is crucial for rapidly offloading terabytes of cinema camera RAW files, directly proving the solution's production readiness and efficiency.

Unleashing Near-60GB/s of Transfer Performance (The Performance Ceiling Benchmark): The solution's absolute maximum capability will be showcased using the industry-standard synthetic benchmarking utility, CrystalDiskMark (CDM), which will demonstrate peak theoretical sequential speeds reaching near 60GB/s (up to 59GB/s). This result highlights the immense, future-proof bandwidth reserve available for the most demanding workloads and future application optimizations.

Real-Time multi-Stream 8K Editing in DaVinci Resolve: The most demanding showcase will utilize the DaVinci Resolve post-production suite. Attendees will witness the system effortlessly process and manipulate multiple simultaneous 8K RAW video streams for complex editing, color grading, and rendering tasks, confirming the storage can sustain consistent, high-bandwidth I/O under the heaviest creative workloads.

Industry Voices on Next-Gen Performance
"Traditional storage systems simply can’t keep pace with the massive, sustained bandwidth required by uncompressed 8K RAW video," said May Hwang, Director of Marketing at HighPoint Technologies, Inc. "By pairing the raw sequential power of Samsung's 9100 PRO SSDs with the aggregated bandwidth and Gen5 switching architecture of our AICs, we are delivering a specialized solution verified by both real-world 50.5GB/s transfers and near-60GB/s peak benchmarks, fundamentally transforming the 8K editing experience and setting a new industry standard for storage performance."

"Reaching a consistent 50.5GB/s in a real-world file transfer test is an extraordinary technical milestone. FastCopy is designed to push the absolute limits of I/O, and this performance validates that HighPoint’s Gen5 architecture has successfully eliminated the bottlenecks traditionally found in high-speed storage. This is a game-changer for data-intensive professionals." – FastCopy Lab CEO Shirouzu Hiroaki

"Japan has long been a global leader in high-resolution broadcast and media technology. Our collaboration with HighPoint at Inter BEE 2025 is pivotal, as it provides local professionals with direct access to the world’s fastest, most reliable storage infrastructure. The verifiable performance of these Gen5 solutions is exactly what the next generation of 8K post-production demands." — ASK Corporation
