Built for 24 7 reliability toshibas 3.5 inch n300 nas hard drive offers unprecedented reliability for nas and other high performance storage systems. It is optimized to meet the reliability, endurance, performance and scalability requirements of 24 hour x 7 day high capacity storage for personal, home office and small business use. The n300 is available in capacities of up to 16 tb. Use for network attached storage nas desktop raid and servers multimedia server storage private cloud storage small business server and storage designed for nas through its contact with nas manufacturers, toshiba recognizes the need for high reliability disks in support of modern data storage and retrieval demands including streaming, backup and archiving. The drive, which can support multi raid systems with up to 8 hard disk drives, allows large volumes of data to be reliably stored and accessed by multiple clients 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Integrated rv sensors regular hard disk drives without rv sensors can affect the performance of a multi bay nas system by generating 'knock on' vibration. N300 drives ensure high reliability by minimising vibration effects through their advanced control and sensing technology. Multiple sensors detect the slightest shock and built in rv sensors also compensate for rotational vibration eliminating the possibility of 'knock on' vibration in multi bay nas configuration systems. Reliable always on operation nas systems in small businesses or creative environments often need to be accessed by several users, at different locations, simultaneously. Therefore today's nas drives must deliver high data transfer rates and simultaneous upload and download 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Offering high reliability and scalability, n300 drives achieve a max. 180 tb year workload factor, up to 3 times more than convenient desktop hard drives. High durability and heat prevention use of high endurance components is one of the reasons that the n300 series offers better durability than other conventional hard disk drives. At the same time, automatic adjustment of seek speed to reduce heat during high temperature operation further improves endurance in demanding situations. High speed for multi drive environment high performance and fast read speed is made possible under high data access loads from multiple users thanks to 512, 256 or 128 mb data buffer. This makes the drive suitable for small businesses and creative professionals looking for solutions to handle high data volumes using multi raid nas environments.
