Thunderbolt, the standard range of Intel, Apple proves (finally) at Computex. At Computex, watch boxes Pegasus Promise R4 and R6, two external models compatible Thunderbolt and differ on one point: the first accepts four storage devices and the second can receive six. The boxes offer two connectors Thunderbolt, which allows you to chain devices, and RS232, which is a priori for maintenance.
The test model introduced at Computex is equipped with high-end Intel SSD, X25-E equipped with SLC memory, but the final versions should - as LaCie - use Intel SSD 510 (based on Marvell controllers) or simple hard drives. The tests are quite encouraging, with 735 MB / s write, Thunderbolt is the fastest interfaces, the general public, well ahead of USB 3.0, eSATA or FireWire.
Yet if the boxes seem efficient, a Pegasus R4 as that shown at Computex may cost (very) expensive. Thunderbolt controllers, rumored to be priced very high, and four in SLC flash SSD worth nearly € 1 200. Performance has a price ... so
