Macworld's Promise Technology Pegasus R6 with Thunderbolt Coverage

  • Thunderbolt: How devices affect each other on a daisy chain Macworld Lab tested different daisy-chain scenarios to find out if certain devices and device placement affects performance. The results are surprising.
  • The 27th Annual Editors’ Choice Awards The Editors’ Choice Awards recognize our favorite products released during the past year. Take a look at the list, and you’ll find a set of products that’ll help you get things done.
  • Even more Thunderbolt results Macworld Lab has done more Thunderbolt testing. We look at Lion versus Snow Leopard performance, MacBook Air performance, and update our eSATA comparison results using a 6Gbps ExpressCard from StarTech.
  • More Thunderbolt speed results In our ongoing look at Thunderbolt performance, we tested two more configurations, as requested by Macworld readers. The first involves the new Promise Pegasus R6 Thunderbolt array configured as a RAID 0; the second is with Target Disk Mode using Thunderbolt.
  • Thunderbolt RAID provides boost over eSATA Macworld Lab recently saw how dramatic an improvement Thunderbolt performance is over FireWire 800. In response to that report, Macworld readers want to see how Thunderbolt performance stacks up against other interface technologies--specifically, eSATA. Our results show that Thunderbolt’s performance boost over eSATA is just as impressive as those found in our FireWire 800 comparison.
  • Thunderbolt RAID dramatically faster than FireWire 800 The first Thunderbolt-based RAID array has finally arrived, and Macworld Lab has some test results for Promise's Pegasus R6 system. As expected, the R6 is pretty darn fast -- and not just by a few measly megabytes per second.
  • The 27th Annual Editors’ Choice Awards: Hardware Here's our list of the best Mac hardware of the year.
