“The new LaCie 8big Rack is a stellar performer. In fact, it has performed so well that I have replaced it as my primary storage on my OS X® 10.9 server. With a single Thunderbolt cable you can get 48 TB of storage. I have several partitions available for editing large projects in Adobe Premiere as well as general project backup. For small workgroups needing large amounts of secure and safe storage – you can add this one to the top of your list.” – Dave HelmIy, Adobe’s Sr. Manager Strategic Development for Pro Video
