The Fox News Channel New York Bureau has tapped high performance media storage provider Maximum Throughput to upgrade its facility.

Networked storage tool Sledgehammer SD!O with Xstoner software provide a way for editors to digitize and transfer media through its gateway to several workstations.

The graphics department can use PC and Mac-friendly Sledgehammer SD!O too as central location for clips and images stored on Discreet framestores.

Additionally, the Montreal-based company provides a migration path to HD for newsrooms and others making the digital transition.
