Default No more HD Native PCIe card?

I have an HDX system but was just looking for a friend and it appears that the Native PCIe card is no longer available, just the thunderbolt interface.

Is this a recent development?

This kinda rules out using a MacPro 5,1 cheese grater as a basis for a ProTools Ultimate Native system.

Still see it available for sale at dealers but it is weird it's been pulled from the Avid website. The dealers would have gotten a notification.

Also not listed on the End of Life list

Both of those are not currently in stock, so I wouldn't assume they are going to get any if Avid has removed them from their site.

They (dealers) would pull it off the website. Avid does have phone calls with their dealers.

Both HDX and HDN cards are mostly out of stock due to production issues until later this week when stores will be receiving them again.
(though I don't know about the longterm viability of more HDN)

You are correct I did not notice that they were out of stock, it does say "coming soon" . If your friend needs one right away have them call Wind Over the Earth in Longmont Colorado. They usually have a fair bit of Avid inventory so they might have them .

They updated that list yesterday (May 1) to include. Previously it was not on the list.

So I guess that means if I want support I will have to use something different than my mid 2010 Mac Pro after 2024

With the advances in technology in the last few years, I would have a hard time investing in AVID hardware today.

The discontinued HD Native PCIe card leaves only Thunderbolt Native and HDX options. I wouldn't be surprised if some new development isn't in the works.

Dante seems to really be gaining ground for third party and even the new AVID MTRX has a Dante connection option.
