About this product
The Promise Pegasus R6 is a 12TB Thunderbolt 2 RAID storage system, equipped with six 2TB HDDs. This external drive is specifically compatible with Mac systems and features a silver color. It uses a 3.5-inch form factor for its drives and boasts a 7200 RPM rotation speed. Designed for professionals, this RAID enclosure offers robust data redundancy and performance capabilities, making it suitable for demanding creative workflows where data integrity and speed are critical.
Our take
For Mac users needing serious storage and data protection, the Promise Pegasus R6 with its 12TB RAID configuration is a powerhouse. The six included 2TB 7200 RPM HDDs offer both capacity and a performance boost thanks to the RAID setup, all connected via a fast Thunderbolt 2 interface. While the Thunderbolt 2 interface is an older standard now, it still provides ample bandwidth for many professional tasks. Its large form factor is typical for a 6-bay RAID, so don't expect it to be a portable solution. This is a workstation companion.
