The Buffalo TeraStation Essentials 16TB 4-Bay NAS Array Rackmount provides a reliable, secure data storage solution with standard-grade hard drives (CMR) included. Ideal for small-scale environments (10 to 30 concurrent users), the TeraStation Essentials NAS offers signature Buffalo security features along with robust backup options to safeguard your files. Utilize the 2.5 GbE RJ45 LAN jack for fast file transfers. RAID support and cloud service integration allow you to optimize data storage as well as backup operations.

The TeraStation Essentials NAS features four drive bays that fit 3.5" hard drives. This configuration comes with four 16TB pre-tested hard drives. The hard drives are hot-swappable. You can also secure your NAS with 256-bit AES encryption so the hard drives can't be read on another device. The TeraStation Essentials NAS provides reliability and usability right out of the box.

Cloud Integration for Flexible Storage and Backup
You can use TeraStation Essentials as a private cloud to easily back up data on the network, or integrate cloud services to the NAS storage to establish a hybrid cloud. The NAS server supports popular cloud services, such as Amazon S3, Dropbox, or Microsoft Azure/OneDrive that you already use. You can also keep non-essential workloads and data in the cloud while storing sensitive or essential data in your local TeraStation Essentials NAS for an extra layer of security.
Built for Data Security
The TeraStation Essentials NAS runs on a closed system, with not even the system administrator having root rights. The closed system on the TeraStation NAS bypasses third-party apps and the potential vulnerabilities from them to keep the NAS safe. The TeraStation NAS also provides 256-bit AES encryption for the drives, preventing them from being read on another device if they are removed.

The NAS storage also offers encrypted file transfers so you can access and share data securely, boot authentication that prevents a lost or stolen TeraStation from booting, and a Kensington lock slot for physical security to further protect your data. Buffalo also offers an optional Anti-Virus Protection license (sold separately) as a security option to further protect your data from multiple cyber threats.
Enhanced Login Security
TeraStation Essentials utilizes two-factor authentication (2FA) to add a key layer of login security to ensure that only authorized users can access the NAS. When enabled, users logging in to the TeraStation will also need to enter a verification code along with their username and password.

This extra layer of protection helps secure data on your NAS against hackers and ransomware. 2FA can significantly improve data security for your NAS, as it ensures that your login information cannot be easily compromised by threat actors, especially if you are logging in remotely.

Please note that you will be required to download and install the latest firmware version to access this feature.
Fast Data Transfer Speeds with Native 2.5 GbE
Multi-gigabit Ethernet can increase network performance to enable faster data transfer speeds. The native 2.5 GbE port on the TeraStation Essentials NAS is ideal for those who are not ready to commit to the deep end of 10 GbE NAS storage. By using the same Cat5e cables that are already widely installed around the office, you can enjoy notably faster network speeds around the multi-user network environment at much lower costs.
Simplicity and Usability
The TeraStation Essentials NAS is a secure, straightforward data storage and backup solution designed to keep it simple yet effective. With pre-tested hard drives included and pre-configured RAID, the TeraStation Essentials NAS provides out-of-the-box reliability and data protection. Active Directory support and advanced NTFS permissions let you control file permissions at the subfolder level, and you can set up folders and user access as you see fit to easily store, back up, and manage your data on the NAS storage.
