9000276 - General DescriptionThe LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 is the ideal solution for post-production professionals working with multiple uncompressed HD streams, and for IT managers looking for a rock-solid storage solution with superior throughput. It features two 8Gb/s Fibre Channel connections per controller. When combined with additional RAID controllers using active/active technology, it can provide enough bandwidth to support one full non-interlaced 4K video stream* with only 12 drives. Reaching 1280MB/s** with 12 drives, it can even achieve speeds up to 2590MB/s *** with expansion units. The LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 is compatible with all high-performance Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters. LaCie recommends using ATTO Celerity cards with dedicated multipathing drivers for optimized throughput and better reliability. 9000276 - Features- Superior Enterprise Class Components
