Full description and specifications

Two IronWolf Pro drives in RAID, plus CFexpress, CFast and SD readers and a DisplayPort output, all on one Thunderbolt 3 cable.

Quick Specs

  • 16TB two-bay RAID storage (RAID 0, RAID 1 or JBOD)
  • Dual Thunderbolt 3 ports, daisy-chain capable
  • CFexpress Type B, CFast 2.0 and UHS-II SD card slots
  • DisplayPort 1.4 (one 8K 30Hz or 4K 120Hz monitor)
  • IronWolf Pro 7200 RPM drives, 5 year limited warranty

A storage hub for photo and video workstations

The 2big Dock is built for photographers and video editors who want their storage, card readers and monitor connection in one box on the desk. Two hot-swappable trays hold Seagate IronWolf Pro 7200 RPM drives, rated for 300TB a year of workload, which ship in RAID 0 for speed and can be switched to RAID 1 for mirroring or JBOD as two separate disks. The front has CFexpress Type B, CFast 2.0 and UHS-II SD slots plus a USB 3.2 Gen 2 hub that charges a phone at 7.5W, so offloading a shoot doesn't need extra readers. LaCie Toolkit handles RAID setup and scheduled backups.

RAID choices and what to plan for

In the default RAID 0 you get the full 16TB and the best speed, but if one drive fails, everything on the array is lost. Switch to RAID 1 and both drives hold the same data, halving usable space to about 8TB but surviving a drive failure. Either way, keep a separate backup. The second Thunderbolt 3 port daisy-chains up to five more Thunderbolt devices, and DisplayPort 1.4 drives one 8K 30Hz or 4K 120Hz monitor. It needs mains power from the included supply. If you only need a single drive without RAID or card readers, the LaCie d2 Professional costs much less.

Questions

Before you buy

Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
