Fast, Reliable and Quiet Enough
I have this plugged into a Mac Mini with the included thunderbolt 3 cable. The speeds I'm seeing for file transfers are up to >1100 MB/s. Writes are closer to 1000 MB/s. A month in and it's done nothing but work. The pegasus software is not the best looking but it does what it needs to do.I wanted something reliable and something that didn't have to spin up the fans to 70db levels all the time. This has hit both of those marks so far. And the speed is much better than the Drobo 5D I was replacing. I bought the Pegasus because the Drobo wasn't reliable.

The best of the best RAID for Mac
I tried being cheap and building my own raid using another brand enclosure and other brand HDDs. It would work great then act weird. Promise does stand behind their products. They even helped me save my 8 drive raid when one drive went bad - 48TB of lost data. They did a TEAMVIEWER session and forced my bad drive back online and I was able to save all the data. So, I spent $4500 dollars and bought a 2nd PROMISE raid. Enough said.

Works as advertised
I was in need of additional RAID storage to use with my Mac Mini. The original 4 drive Promise array was running out of space as I was using both for Apple "Time Machine" and storing videos and pictures.The new Promise R6 array works well with the Mac Mini when interfaced with the Apple T-Bolt 2 to T-Bolt 3 adapter. I left the R4 array for use with Time Machine and now have plenty of space for videos and other backups.

Pegasus 3 is fast and reliable so far
The Pegasus3 R4 12TB drive has been really fast for video editing via Final Cut Pro X. It reliably starts up and shuts down automatically with my iMac pro. It is louder than I had hoped but still not very loud. The shortish included Thunderbolt cable leaves the enclosure underneath my desk.I would buy it again.

Quick shipping. Simple. Fast.
Good price. Arrived more quickly than I expected. Plugged it in and it worked (Mac PowerBook Pro). Extremely fast. I'm very pleased.My two previous Promise Pegasus discs (8TB and 28 TB) have been very reliable, but they're full and I hate deleting old backups and files.

High quality unit
I purchased this unit for the company I work for. I personally own an older and larger unit. It was purchased on the basis of my experiences with Promise Technology's support and quality. We have not been disapointed. It's a great RAID unit.

Perfect for large iMovie files
This has worked out great for one of our users who likes to keep all iMovie files which can be rather large.
