Experience Extreme Performance: The Ultimate SSD Upgrade for Pro Workflows
Tired of storage bottlenecks slowing down your creative vision? For demanding professionals in video production, audio engineering, and virtual reality, speed isn't just a feature—it's a necessity. The OWC Accelsior Pro 8M2 is engineered to shatter those limits, delivering unprecedented performance for the most intensive workflows on your Mac Pro or PC tower. By harnessing the full power of the PCIe bus and modern NVMe SSD technology, the Accelsior Pro 8M2 achieves breathtaking real-world speeds of over 6,000MB/s. This isn't just a number; it's the power to edit large-format video in real-time, render complex 3D models without lag, and master massive audio projects effortlessly. Unlike older SATA-based storage, which was designed for spinning hard drives, NVMe is built from the ground up for solid-state speed, ensuring your system can keep up with your imagination.
The Accelsior Pro 8M2 is the perfect performance supercharger for your Mac Pro (2019, 2012, or 2010 models) or high-end PC tower. It installs easily into any available full-height, half-length x8 or x16 PCIe slot, drawing power directly from the slot—no messy extra cables required. Its robust, fanless design features a finned heatsink cover that provides silent and effective cooling, ensuring consistent peak performance even under heavy, sustained loads. If your computer lacks a spare PCIe slot but has Thunderbolt 3, you can even house the Accelsior Pro 8M2 in an external chassis for incredible portable speed. To unlock the full potential of your storage, every Accelsior Pro 8M2 includes the robust SoftRAID XT software. Go beyond simple hardware RAID and gain unparalleled control to create, monitor, and manage advanced RAID arrays (0, 1, 4, 5, 1+0). SoftRAID actively protects your data with volume validation, disk certification, and predictive failure warnings, giving you the power and rock-solid reliability that professional workflows demand.
