Toshiba S300 3.5" Surveillance Hard Drive
The Toshiba 3.5-inch S300 is engineered to meet the highest demands of surveillance storage. Supporting up to 64 high‑resolution video cameras simultaneously and capacities up to 6 TB, it is designed to keep every frame and every detail in clear view. Built with high‑quality components and verified through rigorous testing, the S300 delivers 24/7 reliability and performance under harsh working conditions.
Ideal for Surveillance Systems
Designed for a wide range of security applications, the Toshiba S300 is suitable for:
- Surveillance Digital Video Recorders (sDVR)
- Surveillance Network Video Recorders (sNVR)
- Hybrid sDVR (analog and IP)
Relentless Reliability
Reliability starts with superior components and thorough testing. The S300 takes this further by using optimised components to deliver clear detail from up to 64 video cameras at the same time. Continuous rigorous testing helps ensure consistent performance, day in and day out.
Capture Every Detail
When every frame matters, the S300 is designed to record even the smallest detail. Its 24/7 reliability and high performance help you capture and retain critical security footage for later analysis at any time.
Designed and Tested for Compatibility
The S300 is designed and tested to support up to 64 high‑resolution cameras, enabling flexible scalability for security camera systems. It is compatible with:
- DVR
- NVR
- Video servers
- Video management systems
For around‑the‑clock security, the surveillance never sleeps – so you can.
Smart Performance
Toshiba’s Dynamic Cache Technology makes the S300 a smart performer. This technology optimises read and write cycle cache allocation through advanced buffer management and a special on‑board cache algorithm to enhance data handling efficiency.
Integrated RV Sensors
In multi‑bay systems, regular hard drives without RV (Rotational Vibration) sensors can create “knock‑on” vibration that affects performance. The S300 minimises vibration effects through advanced control and sensing technology:
- Multiple sensors detect the slightest shock
- Built‑in RV sensors compensate for rotational vibration
This helps eliminate “knock‑on” vibration in multi‑bay surveillance environments and supports high reliability.
High Endurance, High Reliability
High‑endurance, high‑performance components allow the S300 to withstand harsh environments for superior reliability. In high‑temperature conditions, the drive can trigger optimised seek speed to support lower power consumption while helping reduce noise and vibration emissions.
With up to one million hours MTTF (Mean Time to Failure) and up to 180 TB per year workload rating, the S300 offers peace of mind for continuous security camera operation.
Built to Deliver, Designed to Last
Backed by over 50 years of Toshiba innovation, the S300 benefits from proven hard drive expertise. Designed for high capacity and excellent performance, it brings Toshiba’s storage experience to your surveillance system. A three‑year limited warranty is included for added peace of mind.
