LaCie 2Big USB 3.0 Breaks 300MB/s Barrier with 3TB Hard Drives LaCie has demonstrated record speeds in two of its professional storage solutions – LaCie d2 USB 3.0 and LaCie 2big USB 3.0.
LaCie's 2big USB 3.0, now available in 6TB, provides a dramatic 20 percent speed boost by reaching 306MB/s, marking the fastest performance of any 2-bay RAID solution to-date, thanks to the performance of USB 3.0.

"There is no question heavy data users continue to demand higher capacities, and in turn faster transfer speeds," said Erwan Girard, Business Unit Manager for Professional Products.

"Today, LaCie answered this challenge by introducing the largest available capacity and fastest transfer speeds in a single solution, providing users with increased backup efficiency and reduced risk for backup interruption."

The LaCie 2big USB 3.0 6TB and LaCie d2 USB 3.0 3TB will be available, worldwide, at the beginning of November. The 2big USB 3.0 is listed for $349.99 with 2TB capacity, and $579.99 with 4TB capacity. The 6TB option is listed but is not priced yet.
