The LaCie 4big Quadra Enterprise Class is the most complete 4-bay RAID solution for professionals who need RAID performance and encryption protection for their data. Featuring seven RAID modes and four interfaces for full compatibility and flexibility, the 4big Quadra Enterprise Class also integrates four internal SATA server-grade disks for quality and more robust performance. Its internal enterprise disk drives have been developed with a rotational vibration resistance technology and target an ambitious 1.2 million hours MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure)—and best of all, they come with an unbeatable 5-year warranty.

With its native RAID controller and Enterprise Class disk drives that feature 7200RPM and 32MB cache memory, the LaCie 4big Quadra Enterprise Class offers superior support for the most demanding applications, such as Final Cut Pro or the Adobe suite. Pre-configured in RAID 0 for full speed and capacity, the LaCie 4big Quadra Enterprise Class can reach up to 230MB/s through eSATA 3Gb/s, in RAID 0 and in RAID 5**. In addition to these amazing performances, the 24K gold plated contacts on its cables ensure high-quality data transfer that preserves digital content properties.

Made for professionals that need to preserve their data’s confidentiality, the LaCie 4big Quadra Enterprise Class features the option to implement a password access system and an advanced government-grade 128-bit AES hardware encryption, making it a secure choice for your data. In addition to keeping your data safe, the LaCie 4big Quadra Enterprise Class features secure RAID modes, including RAID 5, RAID 3, and RAID 10 for full security and drive failure support. In these configurations, hot-swappable disk trays even allow maintenance without affecting your workflow. Spare drives are also available for purchase so users have the option to keep full protection for their data in secured RAID mode configuration. The LaCie 4big Quadra Enterprise Class even comes with Genie and Intego Backup Manager ProTM to back up your digital assets as well as your workstation configuration, enabling computer recovery in case of a crash.

Comments :	Hot-swapping is not possible in RAID 0 and concatenation modes. Maximum interface transfer rate = theoretical bus bandwidth, whereas burst transfer rate = maximum drive speed. Burst and average performance depends on the RAID mode selected. They vary from one computer to another and may vary slightly from one drive to another. **1TB (Terabyte) = 1000GB. 1GB = 1000MB. 1MB = 1,000,000 Bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon operating environment (typically 10% less). Capacity and cache memory vary depending upon RAID mode. ▼Windows XP and versions of Mac before Mac OS X 10.4.6 do not support hard drives with capacities above 2 TB.
Warranty :	5-Year Limited Warranty
