    I picked mine up the 2Tb version and it takes full advantage of the new Thunderbolt technology. I am a film-maker using the latest D-SLR technology to produce high definition videos, which can occupy a lot of hard disk space very quickly, and this device is perfect for me, especially when it is also available with 3Tb!!
    I use this directly with Final Cut X and Final Cut 7 and it reads and writes files very quickly. Your attached storage is no longer a bottleneck. Just Perfect - Thank you Pegasus - Flying data with the fastest speed!

    Thunderbolt Cable "EXTRA". Shame on LaCie.

    An awesome performer for manipulating large files at absolutely jaw-dropping speeds.
    Four stars for, at $2699, not including a Thunderbolt Cable, but including it with the 'lowly' $699 512GB SSD Little Big Disk. An oversight, perhaps?

    Works but the drives are flakey

    • Written by from Markham

    I've had this running for 2 months now, no errors and a drive just died on me today. Not a big deal when you configure RAID 5 with a spare but still a pain and a little sad considering I have other RAIDS that have run 2+ years without a dead HD.

    Just be warned that the Seagate drives they ship are consumer grade and aren't the most reliable.
