Designed to handle demanding photography, video, and editing tasks, including 8K raw video and 60MP raw images, the 12TB Gemini Ultra X6 Thunderbolt 3 RAID Array and Docking Station from OWC / Other World Computing lets users edit ultra-high resolution files on the fly, ingest several media cards in parallel, render dailies, and more. Compatible with Windows and Mac, the Gemini Ultra X6 connects to your host system using a 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 port, while a second Thunderbolt 3 port may be used to create a daisy-chain with up to five additional devices, charge compatible devices with up to 27W of power, or connect one 8K/60 or one 4K/120 Hz display. Other available ports include two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports, a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, a HDMI 2.1 port that supports 8K/120 Hz, and a UHS-II SD/SDHC/SDXC card reader.The Gemini Ultra X6 has two drive bays that support both 2.5 and 3.5" SATA drives, 2.5 and 3.5" U.2 drives, and NVMe M.2 drives using an M.2 to U.2 adapter. This model is configured with 6 x 2TB P13 Pro PCIe 3.0 x4 M.2 2242 SSDs, which are installed using the M.2 to U.2 adapter, for a total capacity of 12TB. The system comes preconfigured as software-controlled RAID 0, which provides enhanced performance with read speeds of up to 2381 MB/s and write speeds of up to 2123 MB/s. However, it may also be reconfigured as RAID 1, 0+1, 4, 5, or JBOD. Operations are kept cool using an aluminum enclosure with a 3000 rpm cooling fan.Ultra-Performance and Convenience for Production Workflows While the base model Gemini is great for everyday content creators, you are worlds beyond ordinary. Your workflow is at the extreme edge of resolutions, codecs, and framerates. OWC understand your need to push into an other world of capability, and pros like you are the reason they created the Gemini Ultra. Powered by 6 x 2TB P13 Pro PCIe 3.0 x4 SSDs, you'll have the horsepower to handle the most demanding photography, video, and editing tasks you face. Edit ultra-high resolution files on the fly, ingest several media cards in parallel, render dailies without a hitch, and rip through 8K footage with transfer speeds of up to 2381 MB/s. Beyond performance, with the Gemini Ultra's seven connectivity ports, you will experience an incredible level of versatility. Use your favorite accessories and charge small mobile devices via two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports. Daisy chain up to five Thunderbolt devices so that you can create additional backups. Offload media cards faster and easier with the frontside UHS-II slot or external card readers via Thunderbolt or USB-C. Transfer files and work up to 2.5x faster over wired networks and enjoy increased productivity when working with NAS devices with 2.5 Gb/s Ethernet. Add an external monitor with up to 8K resolution via HDMI.Put Ultra X6 to Work Level up to the ultimate production grade workflow storage and docking convenience solution on the market. This dual drive model adds higher capacity and RAID configuration possibilities, like RAID 0 for speed or RAID 5 for data protection, to empower you with advanced performance. And SoftRAID is there helping you manage it all easily.Ultra X6 Models Production companies and video editors can easily backup and edit hours of 8K raw video with advanced codecs (ProRes RAW, R3D, and Blackmagic RAW) at speeds up to 2381 MB/s using RAID 0. DITs working for Netflix can offload and backup camera files at 1761 MB/s using RAID 5 data protection technology, while VFX compositors and artist can benefit from the insane speeds of the NVMe RAID when using EXR files or 3D simulations while streamlining NAS-based workflows with Gemini's 2.5GbE connection.Reclaim Your Desktop With multi-drive media dumps, controllers, A/V outputs, and a mess of device cables, it can be hard enough to find space for your notebook let alone room to work.
