PROMISE Technology will showcase its next-generation Pegasus5 R12 Thunderbolt 5 storage solutions at NAB Show 2026, targeting media and entertainment professionals. The company's flagship Pegasus line has evolved alongside Thunderbolt technology to meet the growing demands of AI-optimized workflows and ultra-high-resolution formats ranging from 4K to 12K.

Alice Chang, PROMISE's Chief Marketing Officer, emphasized the brand's decade-long expertise in post-production storage, while Intel's Ben Hacker highlighted Thunderbolt 5's 80 Gbps bidirectional bandwidth capability. This performance leap dramatically reduces transfer times for data-intensive creators working with generative AI, cloud collaboration, and streaming content. The solutions address industry needs for extreme throughput and low latency.

Live demonstrations at NAB 2026 will feature the Pegasus5 R12 Pro with Apple Mac systems achieving ~6,000 MB/s for Final Cut Pro workflows, while the Windows version pairs with HP Fury G1i for GPU-accelerated editing. Additional offerings include the compact Pegasus5 M8 for mobile AI workflows, the ultra-compact Pegasus5 N4 for on-location editing, and enterprise solutions like the VTrak 8206 NVMe AI server and Vess A8340 hybrid server with onboard AI for video indexing and subtitling.
