Buffalo TeraStation 7000 Rackmount 120TB NAS with Included Enterprise-Grade Drives

The Buffalo TeraStation 7000 Series delivers a rugged, rackmount NAS solution purpose-built for businesses that require large-scale storage, high reliability, and seamless integration with virtualization and cloud workflows. This model ships with twelve enterprise-grade drives already included, offering a massive 120TB of raw storage across the chassis to support demanding workloads such as large graphics libraries, video editing pipelines, CAD projects, and rich multimedia archives. Designed for performance and uptime, the TeraStation 7000 is a ready-to-deploy networked storage appliance that is VMware Certified, supports iSCSI virtualization targets, and plays well with cloud services for backup, replication, and hybrid deployments. Whether you’re consolidating file shares, hosting virtual disks, or streaming media to a global workforce, this rackmount NAS is built to keep data accessible, protected, and scalable as your business grows.

  • Massive capacity with scalable reliability: Featuring twelve drive bays and a total of 120TB of included enterprise-grade storage, the Buffalo TeraStation 7000 is designed for teams handling large datasets, high-resolution media libraries, and expansive design assets. The twelve-disk configuration enables robust RAID options that balance performance, fault tolerance, and capacity, delivering a dependable foundation for daily business operations and archival storage. With this level of capacity, you can consolidate scattered files, accelerate project workflows, and keep critical data centralized in a single, easy-to-manage NAS appliance.
  • Enterprise-grade drives included for immediate readiness: This model ships with enterprise-class hard drives pre-installed, ready to slot into production from day one. Enterprise drives are engineered for continuous operation, higher mean time between failures (MTBF), and improved endurance under heavy read/write activity. By delivering professional-grade disks out of the box, Buffalo ensures you don’t have to wait for a separate drive procurement cycle and can count on sustained performance for file sharing, backups, and virtualization workloads right away.
  • VMware-certified performance with iSCSI virtualization target: The TeraStation 7000 is certified for use in virtualized environments and includes iSCSI virtualization targeting, simplifying the consolidation of storage for virtual machines, databases, and other enterprise apps. This makes it easier to present storage as virtual disks to VMware hosts, optimize storage efficiency, and streamline administration in mixed IT environments. The combination of hardware reliability and virtualization compatibility helps IT teams maximize uptime and simplify resource planning across on-premises and virtual infrastructures.
  • Flexible access, cloud integration, and shared workloads: Designed for teams that collaborate across locations, the TeraStation 7000 supports flexible file sharing, centralized backups, and cloud integration options that extend on-site storage to the cloud for disaster recovery and business continuity. Whether you require secure remote access for distributed teams, automated backups to cloud repositories, or hybrid storage strategies, this NAS is built to bridge on-premises performance with off-site resilience.
  • Easy deployment, management, and ongoing protection: With a user-friendly administrative interface and centralized control, administrators can configure storage pools, RAID level settings, user permissions, and network services without a steep learning curve. Ongoing health monitoring, firmware updates, and simplified maintenance help minimize downtime. The TeraStation 7000 also supports essential data protection features such as snapshots, remote replication, and scheduled backups, enabling you to safeguard critical files and maintain business continuity with confidence.
