12big Rack Fibre 8
Peerless Performance
The LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 is the ideal solution for post-production 
professionals working with multiple uncompressed HD streams, and 
for IT managers looking for a rock-solid storage solution with superior 
throughput. It features two 8Gb/s Fibre Channel connections per controller. 
When combined with additional RAID controllers using active/active 
technology, it can provide enough bandwidth to support one full non-
interlaced 4K video stream** with only 12 drives. Reaching  1280MB/s*** 
with 12 drives, it can even achieve speeds up to 2590MB/s
 with expansion 
units. The LaCie 12big Rack Fibre 8 is compatible with all high-performance 
Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters. LaCie recommends using ATTO Celerity 
cards with dedicated multipathing drivers for optimized throughput and 
better reliability.

class disks that are developed with Rotational Vibration Safeguard

modules, are hot-swappable, providing the ultimate in security with no 
single point of failure.
