This is particularly shocking given that the RAID is comprised of Hitachi 7,200 RPM SATA drives:Įach of the six drives in the Pegasus R6 have a capacity of 1TB, and out of the box it’s set for RAID 5 (striping and data parity) which you can change/configure with the included software. This means that as a group, the six drive RAID outperform an internal SSD for read/write performance. The Promise Pegasus R6 is a 6-bay High Performance Hardware RAID capable of delivering a blistering two channels of 10 Gb/s (1.25GB/s) per port of performance thanks to Thunderbolt’s high-speed I/O. is currently the only storage manufacturer which supports Intel’s Thunderbolt specification which Apple adopted in their 2011 computers and laptops. And since I wouldn’t have to spend money on a separate desktop computer, premium storage solutions would now fit in my budget. Besides having only a 15″ screen, my MacBook Pro also only has a 500GB hard drive, so some additional storage was in order. To make this happen, I added the Apple Thunderbolt Display to give me a proper screen for doing both photo and video editing. The selection decisions I made for new peripherals was based around going from having a traditional desktop PC and a laptop to making my MacBook Pro 15″ laptop my main computer for all my needs. You may recall that a few days ago I posted about some changes I made to my IT setup in my office.
