PROMISE PegasusPro R16 Is A Game Changer For Post Production Collaboration
The PegasusPro R16 leaps over technological hurdles to deliver a true Thunderbolt™ 3 DAS and NAS fusion system for a major improvement in workflow effciency for digital media collaboration. PegasusPro is a kind of system that enables rapid data transfer from DAS to NAS and vice-versa, a huge time saving, performance improvement that is unique in the industry. In addition, utilizing 8th Gen Intel® CoreTM processors, PegasusPro delivers remarkable system performance. Multiple team members can connect to PegasusPro on 4K, even 8K productions; And simultaneously share their work with other team contributors over 10G NAS. All done using a simple, intuitive user interface after a quick and easy one-time setup procedure.
Recommended for medium to large editing teams. Dual Thunderbolt™ 3 ports, supports up to five 4K concurrent editors and sharing with up to twenty NAS users with 10G Ethernet switch. Futureproof: can be upgraded and adapted to fit future needs, e.g. 8K definition. Extremely large storage capacity possible with 12G SAS JBOD expansion. High performance SSD support. PROMISE RAID performance, safety and fault tolerance.
Mac users familiar with the Pegasus Series will transit easily to PegasusPro. Just install PROMISE Utility Pro and connect to the shared storage. Data on your Pegasus3 or Pegasus32 is immediately accessible with a single Thunderbolt™ 3 connection to PegasusPro. Simplified administration is possible because NAS volumes and folders, including shared team folders on the DAS volume are already created. The administrator (master host system) has to simply allow or deny access to client users - that's it
