Notes
|
- Usable capacity for each volume will be lower than the maximum volume size and is dependent on the filesystem and the amount of system metadata stored.
- When Peta Volume is enabled, validated services and packages are required. Please refer to this article for more information on limitations.
- Actual maximum storage pool and volume sizes vary depending on drives used, the number of drive bays available, and the RAID configuration.
- Volumes over 108 TB require 32 GB of memory or more.

- Regarding data concerning tests with RAM expansion, all memory slots are installed with the maximum capacity of supported RAM.
- During testing, the maximum number of SSDs supported by this model is installed in a RAID 5 configuration.
- The testing standard was based on the maximum number of concurrent connections supported by this model. During the testing, 25% of the connections were used to transfer files concurrently. The transfer process guaranteed that the connections were not interrupted; the minimum transfer speed was not guaranteed.

- FS series were installed with 12 SSDs in RAID F1 configuration.
- Suggested users is derived from testing in an environment with 20% heavy users (each with 20,000 pre-populated emails and receiving 240 emails per day) and 80% light users (each receiving an average of 20 emails per day). Learn more
- Models with expandable memory are tested with their maximum supported memory.
- The performance of the mail system will slightly decrease in high-availability mode due to data synchronization between the two servers.
- Functions that were enabled in all of the tests above: anti-spam, anti-virus, DNSBL, greylist, content scan, full-text search (English only).

Notes
|
- Surveillance Station 9.1.3 or above is required to support the maximum IP cameras and FPS figures listed.
- Performance figures are obtained from testing conducted with the device fully populated with drives, with their default memory configuration, and under a continuous recording setup. Actual system capabilities may vary based on configuration, drive performance, enabled features, and the presence of additional workloads.
- Use NVR Selector to quickly find a suitable model based on your requirements.
- The maximum number of camera stream outputs is 2 times the suggested maximum number of IP cameras.

Notes
|
- Exceeding the recommended numbers above will not block application operations, but may result in longer response time.
- Utilizing SSD cache can significantly improve performance.
- Models with expandable memory are tested with their maximum supported memory.
