Surveillance-Grade Storage Array
Desktop hard drives fail early in CCTV service because surveillance is a continuous sequential write workload running every hour of every day, not the intermittent read pattern a consumer drive is designed for. This expansion array uses purpose-built surveillance drives with rotational vibration tolerance for multi-bay chassis and firmware tuned to prioritise stream continuity over error retry. It attaches to the NVR to extend retention to the 30, 60 or 90 days your policy or insurer requires, with drive health monitored and reported rather than discovered during an incident.
