BUFFALO TeraStation 3430RN 4-bay NAS with 8TB capacity, rackmount

The BUFFALO TeraStation 3430RN is a rackmount network-attached storage (NAS) device designed for small to medium-sized businesses. It offers a reliable and scalable solution for data storage, management, and backup, catering to environments with up to 40 users. This device comes pre-configured with two pre-tested, NAS-grade hard drives, providing a total capacity of 8 TB. The drives are set up in RAID 1 configuration by default, offering 4 TB of usable space and redundancy for data protection. However, users can switch to RAID 0 to utilize the full 8 TB capacity if needed. The unit also includes two empty bays for future expansion, allowing businesses to add more drives as their storage needs grow.

The TeraStation 3430RN is built for continuous operation, ensuring high availability and performance even under heavy data loads. It supports 24/7 uptime, making it suitable for mission-critical applications. Data security is a key focus of this device, with features such as 256-bit drive encryption, two-factor authentication (2FA), and advanced security measures like Abnormal Login and File Activity Detection. These features help protect against brute force attacks, ransomware, and unauthorized access.

Integration with cloud services is also a strong point of this NAS. Users can sync with popular cloud platforms like Dropbox, Microsoft OneDrive, or Amazon S3 to create a hybrid cloud storage solution. This not only enhances data security but also helps reduce storage costs by leveraging cloud resources.

The device comes with a comprehensive support package, including a 3-year warranty and optional extended warranty services. Buffalo’s award-winning 24/7 US-based Live Phone Support ensures that users can get assistance whenever needed. Additionally, the TeraStation 3430RN includes Buffalo’s data recovery service for added peace of mind.

Manufactured in Japan, the TeraStation 3430RN is built with high-quality components and is fully TAA compliant, making it suitable for use in government and educational institutions that require compliance with specific procurement standards.
