Pegasus2 maximizes the available line rate of Thunderbolt 2, enabling video creators to transfer and display 4K video files simultaneously. But if you need fast transfer speeds, it doesn't disappoint.The Promise Pegasus2 series with Thunderbolt 2 technology delivers blistering performance to professionals creating rich, ultra-high resolution media. Again averaging five tests, it achieved random read speeds of 15.505 MB/sec and random write speeds of 18.366 MB/sec.Īt over £1,200 for a fully laden six-drive device, the Promise Pegasus RAID isn't a casual investment. But to give you an idea of just how fast it is, we also measured a perfectly capable FireWire 800 drive.

Taking an average of five tests, it achieved a random read rating of 240.745 MB/sec, and a random write speed of 229.124 MB/sec.Īs it's Thunderbolt-only we can't make direct comparisons with other connectivity methods. We tested the Pegasus using QuickBench, which measures transfer speeds in megabytes per second. Both models are clearly built with the Mac user in mind with their brushed aluminium finish and black trim, they're a perfect complement to the Thunderbolt-equipped computers in Apple's notebook and desktop range (the current release of any Mac except the Mac Pro).
