Overview

• When placing the unit on a floor or other surface,
make sure that the unit is equipped with the specified
rubber feet, and put the unit down carefully. If there
are no feet, mount the rubber feet first.
Do not place the unit near other devices that may
become a source of vibrations.
Wait for 30 seconds after turning power off
For a brief interval after the power is turned off, the
platters inside the HDD will still keep spinning and the
heads will be in an insecure position. During this
interval, the unit is more susceptible to shocks and
vibrations than during normal operation. For a period of
at least 30 seconds after turning power off, avoid
subjecting the unit even to very light shocks. After this
period, the hard disk will be fully stopped and the unit
can be manipulated.
Temperature and humidity related precautions
Use and store the unit only in locations where the
specified temperature and humidity ranges are not
exceeded. (Be sure to use the unit that conforms fully to
the specifications of this unit.)
When HDD seems to be faulty
Even if the HDD is showing signs of malfunction, be
sure to observe all the above precautions. This will
prevent further damage from occurring until the problem
can be diagnosed and corrected.
Replacement of the HDD and other consumable
parts
The HDD, fan, and battery of the unit are consumable
parts that will need periodic replacement. When
operating at room temperature, a normal replacement
cycle will be about two to three years. However, this
replacement cycle represents only a general guideline
and does not imply that the life expectancy of these parts
is guaranteed. For details on parts replacement, contact
your dealer.
Overview
The NSRE-S200 is an expansion storage unit designed
for use with the NSR-1200/1100/1050H Sony network
surveillance server (herein referred to as the NSR-1000
series). Up to seven NSRE-S200 units can be connected
to the NSR-1000 series.
Large-capacity hard disks allow recording for
long periods of time
Equipped with large-capacity hard disks, the unit is
capable recording high-quality images for extended
periods of time. For reference examples, see “Reference
Data for Installation” (page 8).
Slim type (2U), space-saving 19-inch rack
mounting model
With the optional rack mounting kit (sold separately),
the unit can be installed in a standard universal pitch EIA
19-inch rack.
High reliability
The NSRE-S200 supports RAID 5
1)
and peforms with
high reliability. The system can continue functioning
even if one of the hard disks develops a malfunction.
1) RAID 5 is a system for dividing and storing data and parity
(error correcting codes) onto more than one hard disk drive.
Although this system allows continued operation should
one of the hard disks malfunction, it does not guarantee
restoration of lost data. In addition, due to high internal
processing loads during reconstruction after you replace
the malfunctioned hard disk, the unit may not be able to
record images at the configured recording rate while
reconstruction is in progress.
Important
This manual only describes how to install the
NSRE-S200 and how to connect to the NSR-1000
series. For details on configurations required for using
this unit, refer to the Installation Manual or User's Guide
for the NSR-1000 series.
