The LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 offers the most storage, the highest speeds, and unparalleled reliability. It's the ideal solution for post-production professionals working with HD, as well as for IT managers looking for a rock-solid storage solution, and with its 8 GB/s fiber channel interface, it's faster than ever. The LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 is perfect for creative professionals who need to work with multiple streams of uncompressed HD video. It features four 8 GB/s fiber channel connections, and with active/active dual RAID controllers, it can provide enough bandwidth to support one full non-interlaced 4K video stream with only 12 drives. In addition to the 12 hot-swappable disks and individually tested enclosures, its two power supplies and redundant cooling units are hot-swappable, providing the ultimate in security. With the 12big Rack Fibre 8, there is no single point of failure and a backup battery helps to ensure that cached data within the RAID controllers can even survive a power failure. The 12big Rack Fibre 8's pre-configured RAID setups and remote analysis tech support capabilities help to make it one of the best-supported, most reliable options on the market. The 12big Rack Fibre 8 can be expanded through dynamic disk array and LUN expansions, and even supports multiple disk sizes.
