Overview

S300: Write your story!

Toshiba's 3.5-inch S300 Surveillance Hard Drive is designed and tested to provide reliable 24/7 surveillance. It combines speed, capacity and extended content retention. With the S300, you can capture and analyse every high-resolution image from up to 32 cameras. Space is important, as it ensures that the history of video evidence is captured for a defined period. With storage capacity from 1TB, you can record and play back real-time events in high resolution, with object identification and facial recognition.

Designed and tested for compatibility

The S300 drive is designed and tested to support up to 32 high-resolution cameras, and to work with your security camera systems. Compatible with digital video recorders, network video recorders, video servers and video management systems, it guarantees permanent security. Surveillance is permanent and you can rest easy.

Top performance

The 256 MB buffer and high transfer speeds meet the data monitoring demands of high-resolution camera streams. Toshiba Dynamic Cache Technology improves real-time drive performance by optimising cache allocation during the read/write cycle using an on-board cache algorithm and buffer management system.

Integrated VR sensors

Conventional hard disk drives without VR sensors can degrade the performance of a multi-bay system by generating harmful vibration. The S300 drive ensures high reliability by reducing vibration through control and sensor technology. Numerous sensors detect the slightest shock, and integrated RV sensors compensate for rotational vibration, limiting the risk of harmful vibration in multi-bay surveillance systems.

High endurance and reliability

The high endurance, high reliability components of the S300 drive are resistant to harsh environments. High temperature environments trigger optimised seek speeds to reduce power consumption while minimising noise and vibration. When using security cameras, you gain peace of mind, as you can count on one million hours of Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) and 180TB per year of workload.

    Malfunctions in low-intensity 24/7 use

    I've put it in my personal NAS (it's been on almost 24/7 for a little over 2 years but I don't use it very intensively) and from time to time it has problems that cause it to be temporarily excluded from the ZFS volume (I don't really understand the exact problem). You have to reboot the machine and it starts up again: it's worrying and abnormal. The other two drives (WD and Seagate) didn't have any problems.
    As far as I'm concerned, Toshiba is finished.

    Very good value for money for archiving purposes

    A very good hard drive for archiving purposes and, above all, at a very low price. It's a good option if you're looking for a solid-state drive with slightly less performance than a conventional hard drive used as a working drive.

    A great product!

    Best value for money for cold archiving; fairly quiet drive, with good read and write speeds for its range. I was using another brand but I don't regret having tried this one and this model in particular.
