Storage that keeps up with the story
From single-editor suites to multi-seat finishing houses, Promise storage is a fixture of professional video work. Pegasus Thunderbolt RAID sits under the desks of editors worldwide, and VTrak arrays anchor shared workflows behind the scenes.

The edit bay standard
Pegasus32 and Pegasus5 R12 give editors direct-attached RAID with the capacity of a shelf and the simplicity of a desktop drive. Hardware RAID means protection without taxing the workstation, and Thunderbolt means the timeline scrubs in real time — no proxies, no waiting on renders to copy.

Shoot, wrap, move on
The Pegasus M4 puts four protected bays in a palm-sized chassis. Offload cards on set, hand the unit to the editor, and keep shooting — the media is already redundant before the truck leaves the lot.

From suite to shared storage
When a project outgrows one seat, VTrak D5000 SAN arrays and J-series expansion take over: Fibre Channel or iSCSI block storage for MAM systems, render farms, and multi-suite facilities, with dual controllers so a component failure never stops a session.

FAQ
Media & Entertainment questions, answered
Which Pegasus fits a solo editor working in 4K?+
A Pegasus32 R6 or R8 covers most 4K codecs comfortably, with capacity for active projects plus recent archive. If you're grading 8K RAW or working in high-frame-rate formats, step up to the Pegasus5 R12 — more spindles means more sustained throughput.
Do Pegasus units work with both Mac and PC?+
Yes. The Pegasus32 and Pegasus5 lines support macOS and Windows over Thunderbolt 3/USB4. The R4i MPX module is the exception — it installs inside a 2019 Mac Pro specifically.
Can you help spec shared storage for a multi-seat facility?+
That's what we do. Tell us seat count, codecs, and whether you're FC or iSCSI, and our engineers will spec a VTrak configuration with the right controller, cache, and shelf mix — and quote drives pre-tested for the array.
