Toshiba Unveils Next-Generation S300 Pro Surveillance HDDs for Large-Scale Video Surveillance Systems
In the fast-evolving world of video surveillance, the demand for high-performance, reliable, and power-efficient storage solutions is ever-increasing. Recognizing this need, Toshiba Electronic Components Taiwan Corporation (Toshiba) has announced the launch of the next-generation S300 Pro Surveillance Hard Disk Drives (HDDs), designed to meet the latest requirements in the surveillance storage market. With enhanced performance, reliability, and power efficiency, the upgraded HDDs are set to revolutionize large-scale video surveillance systems.
The S300 Pro series, available in capacities of 4TB, 6TB, 8TB, and 10TB, boasts a highly scalable design that supports up to 24 bays, making it ideal for demanding environments where reliable operation is crucial. These HDDs, equipped with conventional magnetic recording (CMR) technology, enable system integrators, installation providers, and end users to record, store, and analyze video streams from up to 64 high-definition cameras.
Compared to their predecessors, the next-generation S300 Pro HDDs offer double the buffer size, providing a higher maximum sustained transfer speed of 268MiB/s and a cache buffer size of 512MiB. This upgrade not only enhances performance but also reduces power consumption, ultimately leading to improved total cost of ownership (TCO) for users.
With features like 24/7 operation, an enhanced annual workload of 300TB, and a mean time to failure (MTTF) of up to 1.2 million hours, the S300 Pro series is built to handle the increasing demands of mission-critical surveillance footage. These HDDs are specially optimized for large-scale video surveillance operations, where advanced video analytics, face tracking, and editing are essential features.
Noriaki Katakura, Division President of the Storage Products Division at Toshiba Electronics Components Taiwan Corporation, emphasizes the company’s commitment to collaborating with industry-leading video surveillance system manufacturers. He states, „Toshiba’s next-generation S300 Pro HDDs deliver enhanced performance, durability, and 24/7 reliability, catering to the specific needs of large-scale video surveillance operations.“
The next-generation S300 Pro Surveillance HDDs are now available from August 2024, offering cutting-edge technology and unmatched performance for users in the surveillance storage market.
