About the 16-SATA Management and Storage Server
Combining video management and bulk storage in one chassis, the PLC MS616E E suits sites that would rather run a single box than a separate server and storage pair. An Intel Core i3 on Linux backs 16 hot-swappable 3.5 inch drive bays plus two 2.5 inch SATA positions, reaching up to 256TB with 16TB disks and protected by hardware RAID 0, 1, 5 or 6. It handles up to 2048 channels with 500 device connections and 700 Mbps of incoming recording bandwidth. Bear in mind that consolidating both roles means one chassis carries the whole system, which is why the redundant power supply matters.
Key benefits
- Sixteen hot-swappable 3.5 inch bays reaching 256TB give deep retention without an external array
- Hardware RAID 0, 1, 5 and 6 means a failed disk need not cost you the recordings on it
- Handles up to 2048 channels, expandable to 10,000, so it scales with a growing camera estate
- Dual gigabit NICs with failover and load balancing keep recording alive if one network path drops
- Second-level accurate video indexing narrows a search to the moment rather than the hour
- Redundant 550W power supplies in a 1+1 arrangement remove a single point of failure
Where it works well
- Central recording room for a multi-site retail or banking network
- Textile or manufacturing plant with cameras across several production halls
- Large gated community consolidating recording from many entry points
- Hospital or university campus running one platform across buildings
- Logistics yard and warehouse complex needing long footage retention

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between this and the SS316E storage server?
Both use 16 SATA bays and reach the same capacity, but this model carries the management platform as well as the storage. The SS316E is storage-focused and expects a management server elsewhere in the system. If you are building from scratch and want one unit, the MS616E is the simpler answer.
Do the hard disks come with the server?
Drive configuration is decided per project, since capacity depends on camera count, resolution and how long you need to keep footage. Maximum supported capacity is 256TB using 16TB disks. Discuss your retention target with us on WhatsApp and we will size the disks with you.
Can drives be replaced without shutting the system down?
The 16 main bays are hot-swappable and each drive sits in its own bracket, so a disk can be pulled and replaced in place. With RAID 5 or 6 configured, the array rebuilds onto the new disk. This is the main reason to run RAID rather than independent disks.
How many operators can watch live video at the same time?
Simultaneous preview reaches 100 channels per user and playback runs to 16 channels, with 128-channel decoding output available. Real-world numbers depend on stream resolution and the network between the server and each workstation. We can review your control room plan before you order.
