Tim Standing, OWC's VP of Software Development for Mac, is a long-time friend and one of the planet's smartest technologists. His new version of SoftRAID (7.5) works natively with the new version of Mac OS and is now available for download.  In case you weren't aware, SoftRAID is Tim's invention and what better way to get to know the ins and outs of the software that we use than to ask the coder! Our show runner and host, Cirina Catania, sat down with Tim to get the low-down and share it with you. Look around your office or studio or edit bay…how many external hard drives do you have around you? Cirina's company, Catania Studios, where this interview was recorded, manages literally hundreds of terabytes on RAID arrays and  individual hard drives…and their main server. There are drives that go on location and re-attach when the crew returns, drives that are used for backup or redundant shares in the office, drives that will ultimately end up in storage or drives that are busy working to keep our digital worlds … well, working every day. We use SoftRAID from OWC to monitor all those drives and tell us IN ADVANCE when any of them might be getting just too tired to work properly anymore OR if they are about to fail for any reason!  SoftRAID lives on our systems in each bay and works hard every day to report back to us about how our external drive are doing.

Tim Standing, who leads Mac software development at OWC, talks with host, Cirina Catania about the latest SoftRAID version 6

Topics: We give a shoutout to TidBits, which is a very useful subscription for consultants. Sign up for free apple content here: tcn.tidbits.com Joe and Jerry talk about things they have noticed with clients who deal with memory loss. Jerry talks about the difficulties of trying to instruct clients over the phone when you do not have remote access. Value-based billing is a hot topic. They talk about the touch ID on the new Mac and how it has been tripping people up. Joe wonders what he is going to have an issue with when he is older even with his profession being completely technology focused now. The group talks about purchasing from authorized “resellers”. Why doesn’t Apple recognize purchasing from Apple authorized resellers as purchasing from Apple? Jerry doesn’t often recommend Drobo, but he is concerned why there are still constraints in the supply chain. The group discusses different products and how things have changed. Joe talks about Promise and alternatives. SoftRAID and OWC isn’t always a match made in heaven. Every time you acquiesce 

Topics: -Sam has a rough start to a phishing campaign he was preparing. -A recent visit to the dentist left Jerry thinking more about cleanliness. -A round table discussion brews about protection measures. -While working with a client, Jerry has some issues dealing with an OWC ThunderBay and SoftRAID. Meanwhile his client becomes confused about how the technology works together. -Not surprisingly, another client becomes confused about mail storage vs local disk storage. -Sometimes people’s computer habits can get in the way of when we need to troubleshoot issues. -Do you use tabs or new windows in your browser? -Sam has really struggled with setup and working with Sonos.  -Sam mysteriously disappears!

The Beatles once opened for the legendary Felix Cavaliere and the Young Rascals and he has dozens of behind the scenes stories to tell about music from the 60's all the way to present day. Remember, "Groovin," "Beautiful Morning," "People Got to Be Free," and "Good Lovin?" Cirina Catania, host of OWC RADiO interviews Felix Cavaliere, the captivating American music producer, songwriter and performer who hasn't stopped creating classic songs and whose career is still "new" after over 50 years. We also review OWC's News of the Week...and there is a lot of news this week: A ground-breaking new Envoy Express, the just released award-winning Thunderbay Flex 8 and a version of SoftRAID for Windows. For legendary performer, Felix Cavaliere, making people feel good is engrained into his every day world. He has numeroous accolades, including inductions into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Songwriter Hall of Fame, Vocal Group Hall of Fame, and Grammy Hall of Fame. Few artists can claim they defined a generation; FELIX CAVALIERE did. He continues to remind us to keep listening for joy and the world’s beauty. The classically trained pianist, born in Pelham, New York, idolized Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye, and Sam Cook. Felix Caveliere embraced the Hammond Organ and pioneered a fresh, rock and roll sound and he never stopped to look back. (Photo credit: Leon Volskis) “There is a feeling you get, especially when you’re performing with other musicians, and there’s a magical ingredient that comes in and crosses all nationalities and cultures. That has nothing to do with record sales. It happens when the audiences get what we do. They feel it. And we do to. Now, if we don’t feel it, then we should stop doing this. But I’m going to do this as long as I can.”(Felix Cavaliere) For more information about our amazing sponsor, Other World Computing, go to MacSales.com or OWCDigital.com, where you’ll find hardware and software solutions and tutorial videos that will get you up and running in no time.

Tim Standing, VP Software Engineering at OWC, understands every creative’s nightmare. Disaster strikes and you lose a massive amount of your precious work. It could be fire, flood, ransomware, or even something as common as a failed drive.

OWC RADiO Host, Cirina Catania, interviews the man who’s made it his career-long passion to protect your work. We sleep better knowing Tim Standing and his team have our back. After listening to this interview, we think you’ll feel better too. You’ll learn: Peek under the hood and learn how SoftRAID is designed to protect your work and make you more productive.The best combination of on-site and off-site storage to keep your work safe.How to choose between RAID 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or even 6+.What is the secret to creating the perfect pizza dough?  Tim Standing has been writing drivers and storage utilities for Mac OS since 1986. He is the creator of SoftRAID for macOS and is currently VP of Software Development at Other World Computing, Inc. In the past year, Tim has added APFS support to SoftRAID as well as two additional RAID levels: RAID 6 and 6+.

Caleb Pike of DSLRVideoShooter.com is the ultimate MacGyver of DIY video. In this episode Caleb talks about how he built his own affordable Hackintosh. Caleb is kind of like Dr. Frankenstein: he has taken the software brains of a Mac and implanted it into the monster hardware of a Windows PC to create a hybrid machine with enormous horsepower to run FCP X - his video editing software of choice. His blazing fast Hackintosh leaves Apple's Mac Pro spinning its beachball cursor in dazed confusion and gasping in the dust. How much did Caleb’s Hackintosh cost? About $1600 - thousands of dollars less expensive than a Mac Pro. In this conversation Caleb talks about finally ditching Adobe Creative Cloud. He no longer has a subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud and is getting along just fine without it. He talks about equivalent software that allows him to get the job done without having a monthly bill for the software. Caleb also talks about his philosophy of eliminating things that don’t bring you joy. And after nearly an hour of conversation, we finally get around to talking a bit about cameras and Caleb’s attitude towards gear.
