Intel and Apple had barely broken the news of Thunderbolt’s arrival Thursday when RAID storage supplier Promise Technology announced its own plans for the connectivity standard. The company praised Thunderbolt’s speed and “amazing flexibility for connectivity to high-performance peripherals” when announcing its own Thunderbolt-compatible high performance hardware RAID offering, Pegasus. Set for release in the second quarter of 2011 and designed for media and entertainment customers, Pegasus will feature two Thunderbolt ports and will be available in 4-bay and 6-bay aluminum enclosures with up to 12TB of storage.

If you need a set-and-forget RAID device, this will certainly do the job with a minimum of fuss. For small businesses or home offices that generate high volumes of mission critical data, it’s a sensible investment in peace of mind.

Creating shares and using onboard security is straightforward. The screenshots in the gallery at the end of the post highlight how this is achieved. File shares can be created under the root of a volume and assigned permissions based on internally connected users, or on imported users from external sources like AD.

The NS4600 supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5 & 10, implemented by the onboard Promise PDC42819 SATA RAID Controller. The required RAID level is specified at the time a volume is created; multiple logical volumes are supported on the NS4600 as long as there are sufficient disks available.

In terms of design, the unit looks quite attractive, with blue LEDs on the front, showing drive and network activity. Drives are installed behind a single door in a horizontal fashion and are required to be mounted in small caddies. Overall, the the NS4600 hardware is pretty cool.
