Lacie Biggest S2S RAID Tower - 5TB - 20TB, Nice!

Posted on August 15, 2007 at 11:34 am (PST)

This is nit-picking for a lovely device that provides 5TB of storage in a relatively compact form, but why did Lacie call it the "Biggest S2S"? What happens when they release a bigger one? Anyways, here are the specs:

• Standard 5TB storage, scalable to 20TB (via links with other units)
• Full RAID support
• 3Gb/sec eSATA interface
• eSATA-eSATA direct connection
• 200MB/sec burst rate
• Hot-swappable disks

The basic model with PCI-X is $3,699, which is a bit but reasonable for that amount of storage. HD video editors are probably already drowning in their own drool over this monster.
