I don't have any P2 cards to try it. It’s not something I’ve tried, but in theory I suppose so. I don’t have any P2 cards to try it.

You need to use a USB lead with the larger end of the cable in the USB/esata connector on the bottom of the nvs.

I have the exact power setup you use in your film bought from the same folk. I have connected them with a firewire and all the nexto says is pc connection and I can't sync the footage. Do you know the solution. Will an esata to mini usb connection between nexto and lacie drive like in your film be the thing that makes all the difference or should it work as I have it with the firewire?? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Have fun Kirk Heyup Paul,

No, the NVS 2500 is not a recording device, it's designed for offloading from cards. You can of course edit from it and offload to HD but for recording directly from camera you'll need to look elsewhere. Hi Carl.

Can one plug into the NVS2500 straight from the camera (Sony HVR V1U) and record to the hard drive while shooting, as one can with Focus Enhancement's FS-5? Or is this devise used strictly for cards? I'm looking to purchase something for the following workflows: Shoot to tape and hard drive Transfer to HD and edit w/Avid Media Composer Shoot to tape and hard drive Edit directly from hard drive in the field with Avid Media composer Then archive to external HD. Is this possible with this device?? Regards, Cari Hi there Paul,
