PROMISE
Technology, Inc
. demonstrated the next generation Pegasus2 Series
with Thunderbolt 2 Technology at Intel’s Developer Forum.

live 4K streams while backing up the same file to a Pegasus2 system,
all with the same cables and connectors as the previous generation.

The series is the first RAID-5 solution with
Thunderbolt 2 technology, delivering portable RAID systems for
offsite shoots and enabling backups of terabytes of data in minutes.
The model on display at IDF 2013 maximized the available line rate of
Thunderbolt 2 to provide fast transfer speeds to accelerate and
simplify 4K workflows, and maximizes capacity while offering RAID
protection. Additionally, the company exhibited SANLink2 – a
Thunderbolt 2 to 8Gb FC bridge – which provides connectivity to VTrak
storage and VTrak A-Class shared SAN solution, enabling 4K
environments.
