ThunderBay IV, Thunderbolt, 10 Gb/s, JBOD
<b>The Speed You Need</b>
Add vast amounts of high-performance storage capacity to any Thunderbolt equipped Mac or PC with the ThunderBay IV. Utilize each of the four drives independently, or use the software RAID of your choice to setup the ThunderBay IV for multi-drive performance or data redundancy. Take A/V post-production, photography, data management, and backup to new heights with sustained reading speeds of 895MB/s and writing speeds of 858MB/s.
<b>Real-Time Editing</b>
You can now work at the full speed of the drive. Create, backup your data, or edit multiple uncompressed
video streams faster and more efficiently than ever.
<b>Solid, Reliable, and Cool</b>
The ThunderBay IV has a durable aluminum enclosure that protects the four internal drives while keeping them cool thanks to its superior heat dissipation. A locking faceplate keeps the drives secure.
<b>The Perfect Mac Pro Migration Drive</b>
You don't have to give up your drive bays when migrating from a Mac Pro tower to the new Mac Pro. Simply plug in the ThunderBay IV to your new Mac Pro and you'll have four drives with a Thunderbolt interface capable of running all the drives at full speed – just as if they were installed internally.
<b>Thunderbolt Daisy-chain Capable</b>
Add high-performance features by daisy chaining up to six devices plus one high-resolution display. Of course, the biggest benefit is even when you use a ThunderBay IV, you will still have an available Thunderbolt port.
