Hi Does anybody have an issue with jerky playback

on a quad multicam?

My co wroker hads a single Gdrive and plays smooth.

Same iMAC - 32G RAM

Its a 1080 project, should be fine.

First thing to check: if you're connecting via Thunderbolt 3 make sure the cable has a Thunderbolt icon on the connector if it doesn't you could be running at USB 2 speeds.

There are some variables to consider: Same resolution and codec as your co-worker? Are you using DNX 175 while your co-worker has DNX 36 sources. Same connection between the drive and the computer? Are you both using Thunderbolt or is the slower drive connected using USB-C?
