“According to IDC (March 2007) the amount of digital data created and copied will grow by 57% every year, reaching 988 billion gigabytes by the end of the decade,” comments Gerardine Lynch, Product Marketing Manager at Buffalo. “By expanding our TeraStation line to 4TB, space for more than 650 DVD movies for the home and 5000 CDs worth of data to the business, we are fulfilling users’ storage requirements for the foreseeable future,” he said.

It is specially designed for SMEs that require a cost-effective, high-performance NAS device, which delivers superior performance and reliability. It supports Active Directory integration to allow the TeraStation Pro II to utilise domain users and groups by working as a client member in an Active Directory domain.
