LaCie 12big Thunderbolt 3 12-Bay Desktop RAID Storage Array with 48TB HDD (12x 4TB), 7200 RPM, 40Gb/s at Thunderbolt 3, 10Gb/s at USB 3.1

Think Bigger - LaCie has Got You Covered
With up to 120TB of capacity on your desktop, up to 2600MB/s speeds and RAID 5/6, the LaCie 12big Thunderbolt 3 lets you rein in the stampede of data from 4/5/6K cameras.

The very fastest I/O
LaCie harnessed the breakthrough performance potential of the Thunderbolt 3 I/O and squeezed out speeds of up to 2600MB/s - and 2400MB/s in RAID 5 - to help slash time off nearly every task in your post-production workflow. Ingest RAW footage from a Blackmagic cinema camera into Adobe Premiere Pro, edit uncompressed HD 10-bit and 12-bit video and fly through thumbnail and preview rendering on your biggest projects.

For lightning-fast video workflows
That kind of speed can slash time off nearly every task in your post-production workflow. Ingest hours of RAW footage from a Blackmagic cinema camera into Adobe Premiere Pro in a fraction of the time. Then edit multiple streams of ProRes 422 (HQ), ProRes 4444 XQ, as well as uncompressed HD 10-bit and 12-bit video. For big projects packed with high-def clips, thumbnail and preview rendering becomes much more responsive.

For your smartest workspace
With double the video bandwidth of its predecessor, Thunderbolt 3 lets you daisy chain dual 4K displays or a single 5K display to the LaCie 12big. It's even possible to power a compatible laptop through the Thunderbolt 3 connection.

Bigger in every way. Except in footprint
Get up to 120TB on your desktop-in the same footprint as an iPad Air (This model has 48TB HDD). Invest upfront in a future-proof, RAID-protected solution to improve data access and security, which can help you save money in the long term.

Compatible with Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2
It's possible to connect the 6big and 12big to devices with previous generations of Thunderbolt. Just use a Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 adapter (sold separately).

Consolidate
Instead of buying a new storage device every time you need more capacity, invest up front in a future-proof, RAID-protected solution. Improve data access and security, which can save money in the long term.

Organize
Divide your storage into multiple volumes according to your workflow. Create one volume for ingesting transcoded clips and current projects and another for archiving final footage.

Expand
Thunderbolt 3 lets you daisy chain up to six devices to a computer via a single cable. So you could connect up to six LaCie 12big together, bringing a jaw-dropping 720TB to your computer.

Field-proven reliability for maximum confidence
• Both LaCie 12big and 6big feature 256MB cache, 7200RPM Seagate enterprise-class drives for superb accessibility, reliability and robust performance
• Designed to operate 24x7 on 16-bay racks (instead of 8x5 operations for traditional hard drives), these HDD are rated for 8760 hours of operation per year for extraordinary availability
• The products also feature a five-year limited warranty that covers drives, enclosure and spare parts-ensuring a solid, long-term investment

LaCie's biggest design for the most exacting video pros

Compact Footprint
Get massive capacity on your desktop in a footprint that's smaller than an iPad Air (59 vs 62 in2).

Front-accessible drives
Conveniently and quickly remove and replace drives from the front of the product. Keep track of drive health and RAID build status with the front-facing drive status LEDs.

Aluminum enclosure
Dissipates heat significantly better than plastic.

Advanced cooling
Thermoregulated fans pull heat away from the internal components. Because the fans are redundant, the LaCie 12big and 6big remain operational even if a fan fails.

USB 3.1
For universal compatibility, connect to USB-C laptops-and even USB 3.0 computers via the included USB-C to USB-A cable.

Kensington lock compatible
Tether the product to a fixture to prevent theft.
