The footage comes from a 1990s DV camera, read on a Sony tapedeck and piped into a vintage SGI O2 workstation. The O2 runs a modern NVMe SSD through an adapter setup, made possible by a newly available NVMe driver for IRIX 6.5. That avoids the stack of external drives video editing once required. Despite modern software touches, the finished footage looks like it was broadcast in 1996. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### Is there an NVMe driver available for IRIX 6.5 on SGI hardware? Yes, an NVMe driver for IRIX 6.5 exists, hosted on GitHub under the project name irixnvme. It lets a vintage SGI workstation like the O2 use a modern NVMe SSD through an adapter setup, replacing the stack of external drives that video editing on these machines once required. _Retrocomputing tinkerers reviving old SGI gear can track hacks like this one on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Vintage Chyron TV Hardware?
