The speed you need
All new design for power and performance. ThunderBay 4, OWC's flagship 4-bay RAID ready powerhouse, is bigger and faster than ever before. Now with the unbelievable performance of Thunderbolt 3 — up to 1527MB/s sustained performance — it's the ultimate workhorse external storage solution.
Not only faster, the new ThunderBay 4 Thunderbolt 3 is now natively compatible with both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drives, and with a redesigned chassis, it's even cooler and quieter too.
