Its new industrial design crushes the competition, making giant leaps forward for professional usability and reliability. Use Cases Digital Content Creation: Thunderbolt 2 bandwidth gives creative pros enough bandwidth to shave time off their workflows. Post-production pros can edit multiple 2K uncompressed 10-bit streams or play back compressed 4K video. Photographers will appreciate highly responsive library browsing. And audio pros using Avid® Pro Tools® and other software will notice much smoother audio mixing. Backup: Dramatic I/O speeds through Thunderbolt 2 or USB 3.0 mean incredibly fast backups on any workstation. At the same time, hardware RAID 1 and effective cooling ensure complete reliability. Desktop Storage: Speed, capacity, and reliability make the LaCie 2big a perfect solution for storing current projects. These features also make this product a perfect way to expand capacity for the new Mac Pro®. 1 These transfer rates were achieved using AJA System Test when connected to a Mac computer via the Thunderbolt 2 interface. Actual data rates may vary depending on operating environment and other factors, such as chosen interface, RAID mode, RAID configuration, and disk capacity.
