ioSafe Duo 16TB Fireproof & Waterproof 2-Bay USB-C USB 3.2 Gen2
Data backup meet your new best friend. With two redundant hard drives and ioSafe’s fireproof and waterproof technology, the Duo is the simplest and most affordable way to fully protect your data.Features
Effortlessly—and simultaneously—create two copies of your data, with our all-new ioSafe Duo. The Duo is blazingly fast and protects your critical work from disaster, whether natural or man-made.
BEATS THE HEAT
“Fireproof” barely begins to describe the durability of the Duo. Designed to protect your data up to 1550° F for 30 minutes, you can rest easy knowing your work will still be there after the smoke clears.
BROKEN PIPES HAVE MET THEIR MATCH
When we say our products are waterproof, we really mean it. The Duo will protect your business data even if it’s left underwater for 3 days. Yes, you read that correctly. 3 days.
ALWAYS BE PREPARED
Unfortunately, hard drives can fail. It’s not a matter of if but when. To eliminate this risk, the Duo makes two copies of your data simultaneously on two different drives. This ensures that your work is protected even if one of the hard drives breaks down.
THIS THING REALLY SCREAMS
The Duo uses the modern USB Type-C port (although it also has a traditional USB Type-A port for convenience) as well as the USB 3.2 Gen 2 protocol, which delivers a theoretical and eye-popping 10 Gbps. While the Duo is shipped with our suggested RAID 1 setting, it can always be reconfigured to RAID 0, JBOD, or SPAN. (Although back up your data first, reconfiguring deletes data!)

QNAP NAS TS-451DeU-2G 4-Bay Rackmount
What are the Hardware Specifications of the QNAP TS-451DeU NAS?
Let’s get straight to the good stuff – the hardware. When I first got wind of the QNAP TS-451DeU, if I am honest, I was a little ‘meh’. Compact/half depth NAS devices always seem to focus more on the space saved, than the hardware gained. Previous ‘eU’ rackmount NAS devices have seemingly been a little underwhelming when compared with spending just a £100-150 more and getting something a little more established (such as the TS-453BU). However, in the case of the TS-451DeU QNAP NAS, I was genuinely surprised at just how much GOOD HARDWARE there is inside available to you. You can see alot of long term choice has been put into this NAS development, taking advantage of a new processor revision inside, as well as upping the ante with the network connectivity, there is a heck of alot crammed into this 1U height, half-depth (12 inches – compared with the 19/20 inch depth of most rackmount NAS) device:
- Intel Celeron J4025
- 2.0GHz (Burst to 2.9Ghz)
- Dual-Core Processor
- Intel UHD Embedded Graphics 600
- 2GB/4GB DDR4 SODIMM RAM (2 slots, max 8GB)
- 2 x 2.5GbE Ports
- 2 x M.2 2280 SATA SSD slots internally
- USB 3.1 Ports for Storage Expandability with the TR-004U
- 4-Bay SATA Storage
- Half Depth (12″)

New QNAP TS-253D, TS-453D and TS-653D NAS Series Revealed
Why is the QNAP TS-x53D NAS Series Such a BIG Deal?
The new TS-X53D series of NAS from QNAP is going to serve as the next hardware step in the ’53’ family from QNAP. First released back in 2014, with the TS-x53 Pro range, the 53 series of NAS has always been designed with the ides of being a flagship series of devices that will benefit mid-range business users and performance-hungry home users with a solution that gives you the best of what’s possible with network-attached storage. Typically arriving with hardware that is at the cutting edge of release in its bracket, at a price point that low enough to be affordable, but high enough to maintain your confidence of it being a rugged, reliable and secure product. The TS-x53Pro gave way to the TS-x53A, then the TS-X53B and TS-X53Be. This was not a quick innovation and development spanned almost 7-8 years across these releases. Each tier arriving with the best possible hardware at the time for mid-range NAS buyers to enjoy every single avenue of data access natively. Which brings us to 2020 with the TS-253D 2-Bay, TS-453D 4- Bay and TS-653D 6-Bay NAS Drive. Following in the footsteps of their predecessors, they arrive with one of the very latest Intel Celeron CPUs (a processor family selected for the 53 series because of a balanced price point vs performance 24×7), hardware additions to stay ahead of the curve of how we use our data, several means of upgrading the device in its lifespan and a very, very functional base to support numerous first-party/third-party applications to a high extent simultaneously. That’s why the TS-x53D is such a big deal, because each generation of this series has opened the door to users being able to store and/or access their data in the best way possible. Big words, sure, so let’s take a look at the specifications to see if you agree.

LaCie 6big Thunderbolt3 96TB STFK96000400
Think bigger—we've got you covered. With up to 120TB of capacity on your desktop, up to 2600MB/s speeds, and RAID 5/6, the LaCie 12big and 6big Thunderbolt 3 lets 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 and 12big, LaCie harnessed the breakthrough performance potential of the Thunderbolt 3 I/O and squeezed the absolute best speeds out of the hard drives. We added a hardware RAID controller and 7200RPM drives, and the result is astonishing 12big speeds of up to 2600MB/s—and 2400MB/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 12big or 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***.
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.
