OWC 80TB ThunderBay 4 4-Bay RAID

Move large files without slowing the workstation. The OWC 80TB ThunderBay 4 pairs four enterprise-class drives with a 4-bay external RAID design, giving teams a high-capacity storage platform for media production, backup, and long-term project retention. This configuration ships pre-configured in RAID 5, with support for RAID 0, 1, 4, 5, 1+0 (10), and JBOD through SoftRAID Premium. That flexibility matters when you need to tune the balance between throughput, redundancy, and usable capacity for a specific workflow. The included SoftRAID Premium license adds management value from day one, reducing the need to source separate RAID software. ThunderBay 4 is built for users who outgrow simple external drives and need a more disciplined storage layer. The 80 TB capacity gives you room for active projects and nearline archives, while the RAID architecture helps keep data available during drive maintenance or failure scenarios. For studios, content teams, and technical users, it delivers the kind of storage foundation that justifies the step up from commodity enclosures.
