16-SATA Storage Server

Q: Can this run as a standalone system on its own?

It is designed as a storage server working with a management platform such as PVMS Plus rather than as a complete standalone system. It does provide web-based management for RAID, recording, logs and alarms on the unit itself. If you need one box that does both jobs, look at the MS616E instead.

Q: Why does it use a Xeon processor?

Xeon E3 with ECC memory targets sustained enterprise workloads, and error-correcting memory reduces the risk of silent data corruption during continuous writes. Video recording is a constant write load, so that stability matters over months of uninterrupted operation.

Q: What RAID level should I choose?

RAID 5 and RAID 6 are the usual choices for surveillance storage because they keep capacity usable while tolerating a disk failure, with RAID 6 tolerating two. RAID 0 offers no protection and RAID 1 halves your usable space. We can walk through the trade-off for your camera count on WhatsApp.

Q: What interfaces does it provide for setup?

VGA, USB, RJ45, IPMI and RS-232 are available on the unit. That covers local setup at the rack, network operation and out-of-band remote management. Installation and commissioning in Lahore are arranged through us at +92 300 0030132.

About the 16-SATA Storage Server

Where a management platform already exists, adding raw recording capacity is the job, and the PLC SS316E E is built for exactly that. An Intel Xeon E3 processor on Linux drives 16 hot-swappable 3.5 inch SATA bays plus two 2.5 inch positions, up to 256TB in total, with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5 and 6 and 700 Mbps of incoming recording bandwidth. Web-based management covers RAID status, recording, logs and alarms, and it integrates with PVMS Plus. The trade-off against the management variants is deliberate: this unit stores and serves video, it does not run the management platform itself.

Key benefits

Sixteen hot-swappable SATA bays plus two 2.5 inch positions scale storage to 256TB with 16TB disks
Xeon E3 with 8GB DDR4 ECC memory, expandable to 64GB, suits sustained round-the-clock writing
Handles 700 Mbps of incoming and recording bandwidth, enough headroom for a dense camera count
Dual gigabit LAN with load balancing and failover keeps footage flowing if one link fails
An integrated display controller allows local monitoring at the rack without a separate workstation
IPMI with iKVM gives remote control even when the operating system is not responding

Where it works well

Adding recording capacity to an existing PVMS Plus deployment
Dedicated storage node in a data centre style security rack
Branch site storage feeding a central management server
Long-retention archive for a facility with strict record-keeping needs
Second storage unit alongside an existing management and storage server
