NS780S

With the PCI Express 2.0 ×8 interface and the flexible SAS/SATA backplane solution compatible with SAS/SATA 6G/3Gbps HDDs, the stylish Netstor’s external 16-bay desktop storage NS780S features easy installation and up to 40Gbps fast data transfer rate experiences. Designed ultra-quiet, the hard drives inside NS780S can still be kept cooling. The real-time environmental monitoring with the front fan, TEMP, global HDD LEDs and the built-in buzzer alarm always allows users to know the status of the environment. In addition, the host RAID HBA incorporated inside the NS780S enables the 16-bay storage to provide RAID protection with the highest performance.

Fully Applies to Video Editing Environments
Through the fast data transfer rate and the RAID-level data protection given by NS780S, the 16-bay desktop storage can achieve 1648 MB/s read and 1578 MB/s write speeds1, absolutely meeting the modern demands of high-definition video editing in uncompressed 4K (4096×2160), 2K (2048×1556), HD (1920×1080), and 3D animation. As NS780S is populated with the 3TB HDDs, the storage can be up to 48TB in total raw capacity that saves up to 11 hours of uncompressed 10-bit 4K video, and can easily handle the uncompressed 4K, 2K, 10-bit 1080 4:4:4 HD, ProRes 422, uncompressed 8-bit 1080 HD, DV, HDV, and DVCPRO video with the high-speed data transfer rate.

1. The performance data is tested with AJA System Test 6.0.1 under the following conditions: Areca ARC-1882-ix-16 dual-core RAID card and sixteen SATA 6Gbps HDDs with RAID 5. The result of the performance varies according to the different RAID cards and hard drives employed.
