Product Description
Areca\'s ARC-8050T2 is THE most complete 6Gb/s SAS 8-bay Thunderbolt 2 hardware RAID drive enclosure for both Mac and PC. This top-of-the-line Hardware RAID enclosure incorporates an on-board dual core 800Mhz RAID-On-Chip with 1GB DDR3-1333 memory to deliver truely awesome performance. This solution provides a high performance storage device that is perfect for the video editor working with real-time multi-stream HD and 4K workflows. It runs efficiently without disruption or major drops in performance to meet the requirements of 4K data workflow. It is so quick that it allows for 4K displays at the same time as daisy chaining to other devices. The ARC-8050T2 provides simultaneous 4K output and file transfers while maintaining maximum throughput.
ARC-8050T2 supports the hardware RAID 6 engine to allow two HDDs failures without impact the existing data and performance. It allows users to hot swap a drive in the event of a drive failure with zero downtime. Its high data reliability and protection is devied from the many advanced RAID features on ARC-8050T2 RAID box design. Intelligent power \"On/Off function\" on the storage unit switches power in unison with the host computer power status. In order to preserve data integrity, it will intelligently power down the unit after the Thunderbolt host shuts down everything. ARC-8050T2 also supports a battery backup option that protects all data in cache memory in the event of unexpected power outage. Board-level hardware encryption manages any kind of drive attached to ARC-8050T2 without impacting the performance for higher levels of security.
Thunderbolt 2 is full backward compatible with the same cables and connectors used in the original Thunderbolt series. Thunderbolt 2 pushes speed to 20Gb/s while enabling 4K video file transfer and display simultaneously. ARC-8050T2 is equipped with dual Thunderbolt 2 ports for connecting to any Thunderbolt 2-enabled host such as the new Mac Pro, and offers an additional Thunderbolt 2 port for daisy-chaining other peripherals. The Thunderbolt daisy-chaining allows connection of up to six devices, so customers can connect multiple ARC-8050T2 for massive amounts of video storage with a single Thunderbolt connection to their host computer. ARC-8050T2 meets the requirements of the even most demanding users when working with rich, ultra-high resolution media through Thunderbolt 2 interface.
