The sound is a bit annoying, and the speed is ok

Great concept of raid setup. Recommend going larger than 36 TB or getting two - on backup!

It performs well but is noisy when the disks start up. Makes an unpleasant groaning sound. Was shipped without addequate protective wrapping.

Think bigger - we've got you covered. With 84 TB of capacity on your desktop, up to 1,400 MB/s speeds, and RAID 5/6, the LaCie 6big Thunderbolt 3 let you rein in the stampede of data from ultra hi-res cameras.

Performance
Thunderbolt 3: Think bigger. Deliver faster.
The absolute fastest I/O.
For the 6big, LaCie harnessed the performance potential of the Thunderbolt 3 I/O and maximized breakthrough speeds out of the hard drives. By adding a RAID controller and 7,200 RPM drives, we have reached astonishing 6big speeds of up to 1,400 MB/s in RAID 0 and 2,400 MB/s in RAID 5.
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.
And 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 6big. With two 4K displays, you can spread out your workspace by dedicating one display to your timeline and the other to previewing 4K footage, for example. It's even possible to power a compatible laptop through the Thunderbolt 3 connection.
Compatible with Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2
It's possible to connect the 6big to devices with previous generations of Thunderbolt. Just use a Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 adapter (sold separately).
Capacity
Bigger in every way. Except in footprint.
With 84 TB (6big)on your desktop, you can safely store massive amounts of ultra hi-res footage.
84 TB 115 hours 4K Footage In RAID 5
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 6bigs together, bringing a jaw-dropping 1 PB to your computer.
