Your Multi-Cloud Storage.
Mounted as a Local Drive Z:\ in Windows.
Eliminate slow cloud sync and expensive on-prem NAS arrays. CloudLock mounts drive Z:\ directly into Windows Explorer. Scrub, edit, and render 4K/8K RAW footage at local NVMe speeds while files are sharded across distributed EU object storage in the background.
Native Windows Drive Mount
The desktop agent maps a dedicated virtual volume into Windows. No web portals to learn. Access all studio projects directly from standard file pickers and desktop applications.
Sparse On-Demand Streaming
Never download an entire 80 GB camera master. As you scrub through a timeline in Premiere or DaVinci, only the specific byte ranges and frames currently in view are pulled into the local cache.
Write-Back NVMe Staging
Render directly to Z:\ at maximum NVMe write speeds (2000+ MB/s). The system stages data locally and asynchronously encrypts and shards chunks across cloud nodes without locking your editor.
Select Your Local NVMe Staging Setup
To deliver ultra-low latency, CloudLock requires a fast local NVMe cache folder. You can leverage an existing SSD drive on your workstation, or reserve our upcoming tactical hardware accelerator.
Best for freelance artists and studios with available internal PCIe M.2 slots or high-speed portable SSDs. Map any local path as your staging cache.
