Great innovation is often
Great innovation is often born from great challenges. So, when modern USB-C laptops eliminated many of the ports and slots crucial to the creative process, we went straight to the drawing board. The result is 2big Dock — a Thunderbolt solution that features modern media card slots for ultra-streamlined workflows.
Thunderbolt 2 Ready.
Using an older-gen Thunderbolt 2 Mac computer? You can still tap into the intense speeds of 2big Dock by using the Apple Thunderbolt (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter.*
RAID 0
For PERFORMANCE
-Stripe Mode-
Drives are striped together and function like one large drive, enabling max speed and capacity.
RAID 1
For REDUNDANCY
-Mirror Mode-
Drives mirror each other, meaning data is always the same on both drives. If one fails, the other has your back.
JBOD
For FLEXIBILITY
-Just a Bunch of Disks-
Drives function independently, offering two separate drives in one enclosure.
