Patent ID: 8170402

Claim:
A video data storage device comprising: at least one high speed serial digital interface (SDI) video data input; a primary controller configured to accept serial video data from said high speed SDI video data input, said primary controller comprising a serializer/deserializer (SERDES) circuit, wherein said SERDES circuit converts said serial video data to parallel video data; a plurality of memory controllers coupled to said primary controller via a plurality of medium speed data channels; a plurality of NAND clusters coupled to said plurality of memory controllers, wherein said parallel video data is recorded in said plurality of NAND clusters; at least one high speed SDI video data output coupled to said primary controller, wherein said primary controller is configured to output said parallel video data recorded in said plurality of NAND clusters via said at least one high speed SDI video data output after said parallel video data is converted to said serial video data by said SERDES circuit; and a user interface coupled to said primary controller.
