Special order - call for pricing and ETA
The ARC-8050T5U series are equipped with dual Thunderbolt 5 ports for connecting to any Thunderbolt 5 enabled host and offers an additional Thunderbolt 5 port for daisy-chaining other peripherals, while also supplying power for quick notebook charging. The ARC-8050T5U also sports a full sized DisplayPort 2.1 MF video output on its rear, allowing for a quick and easy dual 6K display setup.
At the heart of ARC-8050T5U 4/6/8/12-bays RAID storage is the incredibly powerful Raid-on-Chip (ROC) storage controller, giving effortless performance as desirable. It delivers true hardware RAID function without sharing the CPU computing power on the host system and also eases off CPU loading as compared to software RAID and when rebuilding an array in the event of a drive failure.
With a massive on-board high speed SDRAM, ARC-8050T5U gives you super-smooth multitasking during the period of high overload in 8K environment. ARC-8050T5U can configure how much cache SDRAM dedicated for read, and how much for write. If your server application has significantly more reads than writes or more writes than reads, you might need to change this setting to adjust the read/write cache ratio for improving performance. Big cache is the perfect choice for a 4K application drive, making your professional apps work as fast as possible.
