Ready-to-deploy 96TB rackmount NAS

The TS51220RH9612 is a 12-bay Buffalo TeraStation that ships with twelve 8TB enterprise-grade drives pre-installed and RAID pre-configured. It targets IT teams who need immediate high-capacity network storage without the delay of drive sourcing or array setup. The quad-core Annapurna Labs AL524 processor and 16GB DDR4 memory handle heavy read/write workloads for business file serving and virtualization.

Dual native 10GbE ports for throughput

Two 10GbE RJ-45 interfaces and two 1GbE ports provide the bandwidth that decides whether this unit fits a high-speed network backbone. IEEE 802.3ab compliance ensures standard copper cabling works at full speed, so no fibre modules or media converters are required. This connectivity profile suits environments moving large datasets between workstations, backup targets or virtual machines.

Cloud sync and snapshot recovery included

Built-in integration with Amazon S3, Dropbox, Microsoft Azure and OneDrive lets administrators replicate folders off-site without third-party software. AES-256 encryption, two-factor authentication and snapshot technology add ransomware-resistant backup and near-instant recovery points. VMware and Windows Server 2022 certification means the NAS can join existing virtualization clusters directly, while the remote management console centralises monitoring across multiple devices.
