Buffalo Targets Business Critical Network Storage with NAS Solutions Featuring Purpose-Built, High Performance NAS Hard Drives
New TeraStation 5000N and TeraStation 5000N WSS series provide SMBs with optimized solutions to improve network storage reliability and longevity
AUSTIN, TX April 1, 2015 Buffalo Americas, a leading provider of external storage, network attached storage (NAS) and networking solutions, announced availability of the TeraStation 5000N and 5000N WSS NAS series. The latest TeraStation family additions address business and advanced home user challenges created by todays hyper-dependence on 24/7 data access. That always-on, always-ready demand subjects RAID storage drives to excessive strain. The TeraStation 5000N and 5000N WSS series feature NAS hard drives optimized for such systems. These hard drives also run cooler, reducing power consumption and operating costs while extending the solutions average lifetime.
Its important to us at Buffalo that we work with our customers, identifying storage and networking product improvements that we know will be meaningful to them, said Matt Dargis, COO, Buffalo Americas, Inc. When IT professionals called for greater NAS system dependability, we responded by revamping our TeraStation 5000 models with advanced drives capable of supporting the growing data access demands. This is yet another example of our commitment to provide cost-effective storage solutions without sacrificing performance.
Meeting customers specific storage preferences, the new Buffalo NAS models support either the TeraStation NAS operating system or Windows Storage Server 2012 R2. The TeraStation NAS system simplifies data backups and sharing while Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 offers seamless integration with Windows environments and supports NTFS for very specific file-level security.
The TeraStation 5000N and 5000N WSS series, featuring 2 GB and 4 GB of installed DDR3 RAM respectively, are powered by the Intel Atom processor for exceptional performance during file transfers and everyday NAS functions. The product family includes multiple options for drive quantity, capacity and form factor (both desktop and rackmount).
