- The TerraMaster D8 Hybrid is an 8-Bay Direct Attached Storage (DAS) unit with RAID features. It supports up to 4 x 24TB SATA HDDs and 4 x 8TB high-speed M.2 NVMe SSDs, for a capacity of up to 128TB! The first two SATA drives can be configure using RAID including RAID 0 and RAID 1. The D8 Hybrid supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 which means you can transfer files up to 900MB/s.

nice work Gary, I love that you simulated a drive failure just to see how it all responds.
The terminology reminds me of the days when IBM called their mainframe drives "Direct Storage" devices. They would not use the term "Random Access Device", deeming it to give the wrong impression.
Beyond that it seems to be easier to connect to than a Fibre Channel external drive system.
Good discussion that points out a number of scenarios that can impede performance.
Very useful! Thank you for the information!
Glad it was helpful!
Sounds nice for the Kickstarter price. For 100 more I would miss more raid options and a NAS mode or second usb host
Nice guide. Thanks. Would have been interesting if all 4 physical drives could be raided and then add raid5 or 6. Also raiding the M.2 drives would be nice.
your opinion of this for a movie & tv show plex server library via a 2012 mac mini? i’m currently simply using an external 14tb seagate drive backed up w/carbon copy cloner on another external 14tb seagate. thanks for your videos.
If you connect the DAS to you laptop and make your laptop shareable, then what is on the das should be available on the network. This seems better than network storage,
Indeed. You can also connect it to an existing NAS or a Raspberry Pi.
Better to connect it to a Raspberry Pi 5 with Open Media Vault or used ex business micro PC with TrueNAS Scale.
It’s useable, not sure if better, you pay double electricity, have flaky usb connection and still need the extra notebook.
Doesn't Orico already make these? Not sure if they are USB 3.2 but they have a massive range of very similar raid and non raid USB-C storage arrays.
compare to 56g/40g/25g nas or dual nas
games? whatever... i only want speed for watching stuff like movies or whatever, storage is for storing, UL or DL speed isnt critical at all, persistence of stored data is what REALLY is a concern
Some people collect both. Either way been eyeing this since it come out.
C’mon !! Till when you are gonna keep us waiting for the Apple M4 video? 🥹
