Eight-Bay Thunderbolt RAID TOWER
Introducing the Areca ARC-8050 - using the latest Thunderbolt technology, a revolutionary high-speed, dual protocol I/O technology designed for performance, simplicity and flexibility. The new ARC-8050 lets you move data between high resolution displays and high performance data devices on a single, compact port. Using a hardware Dual Core RAID engine and 1GB DDR3 ECC default cache, the ARC-8050 delivers outstanding performance unmatched by others.
THUNDERBOLT CONNECTIVITY
A revolutionary I/O technology that supports high-performance data devices and high-resolution displays through a single, compact port. It sets new standards for speed, flexibility and simplicity. Thunderbolt gives you two channels on the same connector with 10Gbps of throughput in both directions, so you can move data to and from peripherals up to 20 times faster than with USB 2.0 and up to 12 times faster than with Firewire 800.
With Thunderbolt technology, you finally have a way to get the same high performance storage to your laptop or just as likely to build a professional video setup around the latest Thunderbolt technology. If you're a video editor, imagine using a single port to connect high-performance storage and transfer your media files reaching 800MBps from just about any Thunderbolt enabled computer or laptop.
