Your Studio-Grade Storage, Untethered
Massive capacity. Blistering 40Gbps speed. Four swappable M.2 NVMe slots. Built for filmmakers, editors, and creative pros who move terabytes daily.
8K Video Editing
Edit multi-layer ProRes and RAW timelines directly from the enclosure with zero dropped frames.
On-Location Dump
Offload four memory cards simultaneously to independent M.2 drives for instant backup.
RAID Storage Vault
Configure RAID 0 for max speed, RAID 1 for real-time mirroring, or JBOD for independent volumes.
Mac & Windows Dock
Single Thunderbolt 3 cable connects your laptop to 4 high-speed SSDs and a daisy-chained 4K display.
From Field to Final Cut in Record Time
Imagine returning from a shoot with 2TB of 8K footage. Instead of waiting hours for file transfers, you pop four M.2 SSDs into the Aowell 4-bay dock, configure them as a single super-fast volume, and start editing immediately. No bottleneck, no downtime. At the studio, it becomes your permanent RAID 1 archive. At home, it sits silently on your desk as a media hub. This enclosure adapts to your workflow, not the other way around.
- True Thunderbolt™ 3 40Gbps – real-world speeds up to 2,800 MB/s, saturating the PCIe 3.0 x4 lane.
- 4 Independent M.2 NVMe slots – supports 2280 M-Key SSDs (PCIe only, not SATA) with tool-free trays.
- Hardware RAID controller – switch between RAID 0, 1, and JBOD via a simple onboard dial – no software needed.
- Active whisper-quiet cooling – built-in temperature-controlled fan and full aluminum body prevent thermal throttling.
- Universal compatibility – plug-and-play with macOS (M1/M2/M3) and Windows 10/11. Works instantly with Apple Studio Display and Pro Display XDR.
- Daisy-chain 5 more devices – connect a 4K monitor, another drive, or a Thunderbolt dock through the second port.
