TERRAMASTER D8-332 8bay Thunderbolt 3 RAID-Speicher

TerraMaster’s 8-bay D8-332 is compatible with 3.5" SATA disks and 2.5" SSDs, allowing professionals to capitalise on a total storage capacity of up to 160TB. As a result, you can be assured the device gives you the tools you need to overcome any storage challenge.

Drawing on a pair of Thunderbolt 3 interfaces (40 Gbps) and a hardware RAID controller, the D8-332 can operate at transfer speeds of 1600 MB/s with 8 HIKVISION V100 SSDs in RAID 0 array mode. In RAID 5, the device can achieve a speed of 1440 MB/s.

The time needed for virtually every aspect of the post-production workflow falls when using the D8-332. At lightning speed, users can transfer several hours of footage from a Blackmagic® device to Adobe® Premiere Pro. In turn, with uncompressed HD 10-bit and 12-bit video, users can edit the ProRes 422 (HQ), ProRes 4444 XQ, and other data streams. Thumbnails and preview rendering are significantly more responsive when using large items with numerous high-definition clips.

Using one cable, Thunderbolt 3 enables users to daisy-chain more than five devices to their computer. As a result, users can achieve an enormous 800 TB capacity by linking together six D8-332 devices.

If your Mac has Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 2 ports, you can capitalise on the D8-332 to achieve high-end transfer rates. With Apple’s Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 adapter (not sold with the D8-332), compatibility between the D8-332 and earlier Thunderbolt technologies is straightforwardly achieved.

With its aluminium casing, metal build, and 80-mm inbuilt temperature-controlled smart fans, full heat dissipation of the D8-332 is assured for those video professionals working long hours.

A key feature of Thunderbolt 3 is its bandwidth capacity, which has been doubled since Thunderbolt 2. At the same time, the D8-332 benefits from a HD DP digital interface and a pair of Thunderbolt 3 interfaces. By daisy-chaining two 4K displays (or one 5K display) to the D8-332, users can augment their workspace in the smartest and most suitable way for their professional needs. Additionally, using Thunderbolt 3 connections, users can even power a compatible notebook computer.

The D8-332 can operate with RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10, as well as JBOD disk array modes for all your application needs. This underpins the all-important concern for guaranteed data security, and it ensures that your storage capacity is utilised in the most efficient way possible.

Replacing lost content is inconvenient, costly, and, ultimately, unworkable for all professionals. Therefore, with the D8-332, TerraMaster has not comprised on its use of state-of-the-art storage technologies to ensure data safety and security. Now, freed from concerns about inadequately protected data, users can focus on what matters to you.

Given its compactness, its large storage capacity, and its lightning speed, the D8-332 is ideally suited for the most demanding applications, including 4K video editing, as well as seamless 4K streaming. Other users, especially those with strict speed and storage requirements, will find a valuable partner in this device.

Both Apple and Intel have certified the D8-332’s design and performance, ensuring the device’s consistent performance and reliability.
