Hello Dave,
What resolution, frame rate and codec are these HD clips?
If you are trying to play back uncompressed 8 or 10 bit HD and do not have a RAID or fast SSD, playback may not happen or may be choppy as that Hitachi may not sustain the required read/write speed.
We bundle an application called the Disk Speed Test. You can run this on your drive to see what expected capture/playback it is capable of handling.
When playing back a sequence of stills, this may be a bit more difficult for NLEs to handle. Usually, you will want to wrap these stills in a movie container, which should be easier for editing, compared to a bunch of stills.
