[Veritable Hardware RAID Controller] D16-Thunderbolt3 is equipped with the latest dedicated RAID chip and high-speed cache memory to complete all RAID processing, which can provide true high-performance hardware RAID protection to ensure stable and high-performance data transmission. It issuitable for a video editor that works with real-time multi-channel HD and 8K video streams. Starting from March 26th, 2021, Mac with M1 security chip was fully supported.
[Lightning Fast Dtorage for Video Editing] Drawing on a pair of Thunderbolt 3 interfaces (40 Gbps) and a hardware RAID controller, the D16 Thunderbolt 3 can operate at transfer speeds of 2100 MB/s in RAID 0 array mode with 16 SSDs. Under RAID 5, the device can achieve a speed of 1800 MB/s. It works with the computers with Thunderbolt 3 or 4 port, NOT compatible with USB port.
[Incredible Capacity up to 1PB] Multiple hardware RAID: RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50, JBOD, Single. Support up to 320TB storage capacity (20TB x 16, in RAID 0), hard drives not included, users need to purchase as needed. Support both 3.5” SATA disks and 2.5” SSDs. Other storage devices can be daisy-chained via Thunderbolt 3 – so six linked D16 Thunderbolt 3 units can achieve an enormous 1PB of on-site storage.
The D16 is both quiet and compact enough to be placed on a desktop in the working area, with a similar footprint to a typical tower PC. Even under full load, the D16’s high-quality silent fan and specially optimized interior structure help increase the internal air flow of the device to reduce the disk temperature, as well as greatly reducing resonance and noise. D16 has a specially designed handle that makes it easy to carry, facilitating the work of video production teams.
[One Device with Multifunctions] Capitalizing on the Thunderbolt3 and DP interface, the D16 thunderbolt3 supports multi-screen displays with up to 3 monitors or daisy-chain up to 6 devices to create the smartest workspace. This is an ideal solution for multitaskers, especially when efficiency is the end goal.

Product description
TerraMaster D16 Thunderbolt 3 Hardware RAID Storage - More Power, More Speed.
The TerraMaster D16Thunderbolt 3 is ideal for small- and medium-sized enterprises in need of high-speed, large-capacity storage for content creation, perfect for creators working on applications like Final Cut Pro X, Lightroom, Resolve, and others. The RAID storage also comes with two 40Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 ports that are fully compatible with the latest Big Sur system version, supporting full 4K/8K video performance.
Daisy-chain up to 6 devices
Capitalizing on the Thunderbolt 3 and DP1.4 interfaces, the D16 thunderbolt 3 supports multi-screen displays with up to 3 monitors or daisy-chain up to 6 devices. This is an ideal solution for multitaskers, especially when efficiency is the end goal. The Thunderbolt 2 devices with the daisy-chain function can also be daisy-chained to the D16 Thunderbolt 3.
To use the device, your system should satisfy the requirements below:
· Operating System: 64-bit Windows 8/10 or later; MAC OS X 10.12 or Version later.
· Hardware Requirement: CPU i5 Quad-Core or higher;
· Memory: Minimum 4GB;
· Interface: Thunderbolt 3 or 2; If your device has only the USB ports, it will not be compatible.
· Applicable Hard Drive: 3.5" SATA enterprise hard drive, SSHD hybrid hard drive, NAS hard drive (SATA III or above), or 2.5" SSD (SATA II or above).
Professional and Safe Replacing lost content is inconvenient, costly, and, ultimately, unworkable for all professionals. Therefore, with the D16 Thunderbolt 3, TerraMaster has not comprised on its use of state-of-the-art storage technologies to ensure data safety and security. Now, freed from concerns about inadequately protected data, users can focus on what matters to you.
Large Storage Capacity TerraMaster's16-bay D16 Thunderbolt 3 is compatible with 3.5" SATA disks and 2.5" SSDs, allowing professionals to capitalise on a total storage capacity of up to 320TB. As a result, you can be assured the device gives you the tools you need to overcome any storage challenge.
The Ideal Companion for All Professionals Given its compactness, its large storage capacity, and its lightning speed, the D16 Thunderbolt 3 is ideally suited for the most demanding applications, including 4K/8K video editing, as well as seamless 4K/8K streaming. Other users, especially those with strict speed and storage requirements, will find a valuable partner in this device.
Peace as a priority To support designers, a non-coded storage device must be quiet. D16 has a high-quality silent fan and specially optimized interior structure, that effectively increase the internal air flow of the device to reduce the working temperature of the hard disk while greatly reducing the resonance between device components. Even under full load, D16 can thus still maintain a satisfactory low noise level.
