This review is from : PROMISE Pegasus R4 4TB RAID System
WOW . I am currently using this drive attached to a new iMac 27" maxed out on processor and RAM.. we have been in the field the last 3 weeks shooting a project bouncing the footage down to this drive from our firewire 800 card reader is quite fast.. once its on the drive playback is un hitched and speedy even using the compressed sometimes stuttering codec of H264...
We are now in the studio, and the drive is being used as our main edit drive for this project.. we have 2TB of footage encoded to Apple Pro Res 422HQ , we are playing back 4 layers of video through FCP and we see NO LAG, this drive is SPEEDY !!!!! Its built to transport if you have the appropriate road case with
shock support.. its just simply stunning how quick this drive is.. Thunderbolt is absolutely an amazing new way to interconnect devices, it will be the future of what everything is connected with , still faster than USB3 and blows away firewire 800....
The software that comes with the drive is a little clumsy but very intuitive, you can manipulate all of the drive properties from it, quick to install, but may take a minute to learn where all the attributes are..
When you first power the drive up, you will need to wait for an initilisation process to happen which took for me about 12 hours, so don't expect to use it right out of the box.
Overall i would and will absolutely buy another one of these drives.. Would totally recommend it to any AUDIO or VIDEO professional.
