What the specifications mean
- Up to 210 MB/s sustained transfer, as specified by the manufacturer. This is not a measured game-loading or random-I/O result.
- Rated for up to 32 cameras under the manufacturer's conditions. Camera bitrate and recording schedule determine how long 2TB of footage lasts.
- Rotational vibration sensors: No. Check the documented drive-bay limit for multi-drive enclosures.
- +Rescue model (confirm service eligibility). Confirm coverage for the specific serial number, seller and purchase date; an older package designation does not establish active coverage.
