Toshiba Unveils Next-Generation S300 Pro Surveillance HDDs for Large-Scale Video Surveillance Systems

Toshiba Electronic Components Taiwan Corporation (Toshiba) has announced next-generation S300 Pro Surveillance HDDs (Hard Disk Drives) targeting the latest requirements in the surveillance storage market. With capacities up to 10TB and double the buffer size of their predecessors, the upgraded HDDs with conventional magnetic recording (CMR) technology enable surveillance system integrators, system installation providers, and end users to record, store, and analyse their video streams from up to 64 high-definition (HD) cameras.

he highly scalable, 3.5-inch S300 Pro Surveillance series, with capacity options of 4TB, 6TB, 8TB, and 10TB, now supports up to 24 bays, and delivers reliable operation even in the most demanding environments, making the HDDs an excellent fit for large-scale video recording systems. Compared to the previous generation, they provide a higher maximum sustained transfer speed of 268MiB/s and double the cache buffer size to 512MiB. They also reduce power consumption, delivering improved total cost of ownership (TCO).

Handling Enhanced Workloads with the S300 Pro Surveillance Series

With 24/7 operation, an enhanced annual workload of 300TB and mean time to failure (MTTF) of up to 1.2 million hours, the S300 Pro Surveillance series can handle the increasing video analysis demands of mission-critical surveillance footage.

“Specially optimised for large-scale video surveillance operations, where advanced video analytics, face tracking, and editing are mission-critical features, Toshiba’s next-generation S300 Pro Surveillance HDDs deliver enhanced performance, durability, and 24/7 reliability,” said Noriaki Katakura, Division President, Storage Products Division, at Toshiba Electronics Components Taiwan Corporation. “They demonstrate Toshiba’s commitment to constantly collaborate with industry-leading video surveillance system manufacturers, and allow our partners and customers to benefit from the range of high-quality surveillance HDDs in our product portfolio.”
