i-PRO NVR-R-2-144TB-V2 NVR (Dual Xeon Octa-Core, 32 GB RAM, 144 TB)

The NVR-R-2-144TB-V2 is a 2U rack-mount NVR with dual Xeon octa-core CPUs, 32 GB of RAM, and 144 TB of recording capacity. It is sized for the enterprise sweet spot — campuses, large retail, multi-building schools — where channel counts in the low hundreds and continuous recording with several weeks of retention is the goal.

Key Features

• 2U rack-mount NVR with dual Intel Xeon octa-core CPUs
• 32 GB of system RAM
• 144 TB of usable recording capacity
• Enterprise surveillance drives in RAID configuration
• Hot-swap drive bays for in-rack service
• Hardware-accelerated H.265 decoding for live wall monitoring
• Pre-tuned i-PRO VMS / Video Insight stack

The 144 TB tier carries a healthy several-hundred-channel deployment with motion-mostly recording at typical 4K bitrates. Dual Xeon octa-core CPUs give plenty of headroom for VMS services, decode, and analytics, while the 32 GB RAM allocation suits the metadata indexing workload at this channel count. Hot-swap drive bays mean a failed disk swap does not require taking the appliance offline.

Confirm retention with the i-PRO bandwidth calculator using actual camera bitrates and the customer's motion profile. Size the rack PDU for full draw plus 20 percent and pair with a UPS adequate for RAID-rebuild-time graceful shutdown. Plan for at least 1 GbE uplink per camera bank or a 10 GbE shared uplink for the appliance. Keep cold-spare drives on hand to start RAID rebuild the same day a drive fails.
