BUFFALO TS71210RH6404 – TeraStation 71210RH 64TB 12-Bay 2U 10GbE NAS
Overview
The BUFFALO TS71210RH6404 is a TeraStation 71210RH Series enterprise NAS configured with 64TB of installed storage using four 16TB enterprise-grade hard drives. The 12-bay 2U rackmount chassis provides eight additional drive bays for storage expansion and supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and JBOD configurations.
The system is designed for business and data-center storage environments requiring high-capacity network storage, multi-gigabit connectivity, and expansion capability. Four native 10GbE RJ-45 ports provide network connectivity, while two PCIe Gen 4 x8 expansion slots support compatible expansion options.
Technical Information
The TS71210RH6404 uses an Intel Xeon D-1713NT 2.2GHz quad-core processor with Turbo Boost up to 3.5GHz. It is equipped with 16GB of DDR4 ECC memory and supports expansion up to 64GB using compatible 16GB memory modules.
Four 10GBASE-T RJ-45 ports support 10Gbps, 1000Mbps, 100Mbps, and 10Mbps Ethernet connections. Network services include TCP/IP, CIFS/SMB, AFP, FTP/FTPS/SFTP, and NFS.
The NAS uses Btrfs and supports SSD caching. Two PCIe Gen 4 x8 expansion slots provide additional expansion capability, including support for compatible high-speed networking and storage acceleration options. Buffalo specifies support for 25GbE and 40GbE expansion through compatible network adapters.
Compatibility
The TS71210RH6404 is intended for rackmount network-storage deployments using standard Ethernet infrastructure. Its four 10GbE RJ-45 interfaces can operate with 10Gbps, 1Gbps, 100Mbps, and 10Mbps Ethernet connections.
Compatible operating systems include Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, and macOS 10.13 or later.
Buffalo specifies the OP-HD16.0H2U-5Y enterprise replacement drive for the TS71210RH6404. The compatible replacement drive uses a SATA 6Gbps interface and carries a five-year warranty.
