- 8 bays in a 1U rack for superb storage density
- Dual Thunderbolt 2 ports for storage expansion
- Hardware RAID, optional enterprise-class drives, and full component
redundancy
Features
Fibre Channel DAS has been dethroned. Featuring Thunderbolt 2 speeds of up to
1330MB/s and 48TB in a 1U rackmount size, the LaCie 8big Rack has seized the
crown. Video pros, meet the king of storage for 4K workflows.
Thunderbolt 2 Speeds for the 4K Era
With Thunderbolt 2 technology, the interface is no longer the performance
bottleneck. For the 8big Rack, LaCie harnessed the breakthrough performance
potential of the Thunderbolt 2 I/O, squeezing the absolute best speeds out of
the hard disks. Add a hardware RAID controller and 7200 RPM disks, and the
result is incredible, sustained speeds of up to 1330MB/s that turbocharge 4K
workflows, file transfers, or backups.
With this kind of speed, videographers can work directly from RAW files in
Apple Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere, get maximum quality from footage, and see
edits in real time. No need to first convert footage into a lower resolution.
Avid Pro Tools users will notice incredibly smooth audio mixing, even when
working with hundreds of tracks simultaneously. Professional photography
agencies and other Adobe Lightroom or Apple Aperture users can browse through
archived libraries of thousands of RAW and edited images, with zero lag.
Bulletproof Reliability
With full component redundancy, the LaCie 8big Rack gives professionals
superb reliability and data security. Fans, disks, and PSU** are fully
redundant, hot swappable**, and user-serviceable. And hardware RAID 5/6 provides
security against disk failure and data loss, without compromising on transfer
speeds. Whatever the contingency, zero data loss, and zero downtime.
Opt for the version with Seagate Enterprise Capacity 3.5 hard disks for
superb accessibility, reliability, and robust performance. Designed to operate
247 on 16-bay racks, these HDDs feature 2 million hours MTBF (mean time between
failure) for extraordinary availability. The LaCie 8big with enterprise-class
drives also comes with a five-year warranty that covers drives, enclosure, and
spare parts, ensuring a solid long-term investment. These drives feature 128MB
cache, 7200RPM, and rack environment optimization, offering the ideal solution
for handling aggressive workloads. For maximum reliability of your critical
data, depend on the LaCie 8big with enterprise-class drives.
The 8big Racks innovative cooling system prolongs component lifespan,
featuring three efficient, thermoregulated cooling fans to drive airflow. A
metal sheet beneath the disks dissipates heat, and cool air flows under the
sheet to drain hot air away. Above and between the two rows of disks, air flows
from front to back, conducting heat away from sensitive components.
The Most Powerful I/O, Reinvented
Thunderbolt technology redefined external storage with its speed and
versatility for bandwidth-intensive applications. Thunderbolt 2 builds on those
advances by doubling the speed potential to 20Gb/s and enabling simultaneous RAW
4K video editing and display. And thanks to support for DisplayPort 1.2, its now
possible to daisy chain higher-resolution displays such as 4K monitors.
In addition to higher performances, the Thunderbolt 2 I/O offers dramatically
simpler connections than Fibre Channel. Connect the LaCie 8big Rack to a
computer via the Thunderboltcableno HBA (host bus adapter)
necessaryandinstantly the volume mounts on your OS. And unlike Fibre Channel,
Thunderbolt 2 is truly a plug and play and single-vendor solution. No port
mapping or multipathing is required to achieve this performance. Thunderbolt
technology even supports optical cables, which means you could connect a LaCie
8big Rack to a computer located up to 60 meters (197 feet)
away.
Thanks to dual Thunderbolt 2 ports, you can daisy chain up to six
devices to a computer via a single cable (included in the box). For example, you
could connect a total of 36 LaCie 8big Racks via the six Thunderbolt 2 ports on
a single Mac Pro, enabling more than 1.7PB (1728TB) and more
than3000MB/sin a mere36U. Compared with Fibre Channel
solutions, the LaCie 8big Rack delivers outstanding scalability in half the
space, a much simpler setup, and unprecedented
performance.
Innovative Design, Breakthrough
Usability

monitoring, and email alerts. Select RAID 0, 1 (two-disk configuration only), 5,
6, 10, or JBOD. RAID Manager even supports RAID migration, so you can move from
RAID 5 on 4 disks to RAID 5 on 8diskswithoutdata loss. And system
monitoring can alert you of problems or potential problems via desktop
notifications or email, so you can address issues before they result in data
loss.
