Online RAID Capacity Expansion and Online RAID Level Migration

• Online RAID Capacity Expansion
  The storage capacity of a RAID configuration can be expanded by replacing the hard drives with larger ones. All the data will be kept and seamlessly moved to the newly installed hard drives. There is no need to turn off the server during the process.
• Online RAID Level Migration
  You can upgrade the disk configuration to higher RAID level with the data retained without turning off the server.

 

S.M.A.R.T. & Advanced HDD Health Scanning (HHS)
S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology) helps you monitor the hard disk drives status. VioStor NVR supports HHS (HDD Health Scan) for disk checking and bad blocks scanning.

Automatic System Startup after Power Recovery
VioStor NVR supports automatic power-on when power resumes after power outage.

 

UPS Support for 24/7 Service
VioStor NVR supports APC, CyberPower, and MGE UPS devices to provide continuous services 24/7 against unexpected power outage.

DOM Architecture with Embedded Fail-safe Dual OS for Enhanced Reliability
All the OS and applications of VioStor NVR are embedded on the DOM. VioStor NVR allows system booting without accessing the physical disk sectors which prevents unsuccessful system startup caused by bad block sectors or file errors on the hard drives. Two operating systems are built on the DOM for system booting alternatively upon every system startup. When one fails, the other one will be used to boot up instead, and the failed OS is recoverable from the other healthy OS.

Network Services
Dual Gigabit LAN Ports

• Failover
  This mode allows VioStor NVR to sustain the failure of one network port to provide continuous services.
• Load-balancing
  This mode provides bandwidth aggregation to boost the file transfer speed (works with managed Ethernet switch with 802.3ad configured).
• Multi-IP Setting
  Two IP settings can be configured on the NVR to allow network access from two different subnets.

Built-in DDNS Service
VioStor NVR supports dynamic DNS (DDNS). You can register a unique domain name from a DDNS service provider and assign it to your NVR.

Built-in NTP Server
You can enable this feature to allow the connected IP cameras to synchronize their date and time settings with the NVR.

Convenient Data Access
The video data of VioStor NVR can be accessed by the following protocols with proper access rights:

• Network Places (SMB/CIFS)
• Web file management (HTTP)
• FTP server

Easy Configuration and Management
System Setup in Simple Steps
You can set up the NVR easily in simple steps by the local display and web-based interface.

Web-based User Interface
All system configurations, monitoring, and playback can be finished by the web-based interface.

Smart Search of IP Camera for Quick Settings
QNAP provides an intelligent software utility Finder for quick IP camera search and system settings.

Excellent Hardware Design
Dual-core Intel Atom Processor and 1GB Memory for Superior System Performance
Powered by dual-core Intel Atom processsor and 1GB memory, VioStor NVR delivers superior performance for different surveillance applications.

Redundant Power Supply
The VioStor NVR is equipped with two power supply units, each of which is capable of supplying the power for the entire VioStor NVR independently. If one of the units fails, the other one will take over to supply the power to ensure continuous operation of the VioStor NVR. You can replace the failed power supply unit without turning off the server.
