Intelligent Security Systems Certifies Buffalo TeraStation 7120r Enterprise RAID

Intelligent Security Systems, Inc. (ISS), in video management and video analytics solutions, announced compatibility and certification of the Buffalo TeraStation 7120r enterprise NAS and iSCSI Storage with ISS software.

TeraStation 7120r

Buffalo Americas, Inc. is a provider of external storage, NAS and networking solutions.

The TeraStation 7120r Enterprise is a high-performance populated 12-drive NAS and iSCSI storage system available in capacities up to 96TB, for businesses that need a reliable RAID-based network storage solution for mid-sized networks with demanding environments.

The solution uses either iSCSI or SMB protocols for communication, and boasts transfer rates of up to 100MB/s for each of the four included Intel NICs. Faster performance can be achieved through port trunking or through the addition of 10GbE NICs. An advantage of the architecture is that multiple ISS servers and recorders can write to the same TeraStation, allowing for flexibility in storage management for larger projects.

A Seamless All-in-One Solution
For businesses needing to update their video surveillance infrastructure, the ISS software with TeraStation 7120r Enterprise offers a cost effective solution with built-in enterprise capabilities and scalability. Businesses and installers have delayed the transition to IP solutions and external storage due to the impression that traditional analog surveillance systems offer greater ease of use. In reality the ISS and Buffalo solution is simple to set up, offers redundancy using RAID-6 architecture, supports much higher resolution and HD video and remains equally cost effective.

“ISS is proud to be partnering with Buffalo on enhancing an excellent price-point solution. It’s just one more example of Buffalo’s objective to support the physical security markets, especially in the Americas,” said Aluisio Figueiredo, COO at ISS. “Buffalo is a traditionally IT-focused technology provider who foresees and embraces valuable opportunities to help the physical security market enhance their IP-based systems with greater capacity and flexibility while adding new features without expending additional resources.”
