Hi
I have a Pegasus 2 R6 with 12TB and I need to more space for editing 4k video.
At the moment it's impossible for me to buy a bigger raid
The oficial spec says that you can only use up to 4TB hardrives on this sytem
Has anyone used, tested using 6TB on the Pegasus 2 R6?
Can any one recommend any disks for this system?
Thanks very much
Carlos

Hi Arun
Sorry to bother you again wiht this subject:
I analyse the disc list yo sent me
The toshibas disks seem to have the better reviews
I am interested in getting 10TB (or at lest 8TB) disks for I will need a lot of space to work
The only 10TB disk on the list is the seagate ironwolf which does not seem to have such good reviews as the toshibas
I am using the raid for video editing
Please could you tell me which one would you recommend?
Kind Regards
Carlos
