This RAID 5-configured system provides the redundancy your clients expect when continuous recording and rapid footage retrieval are mission-critical.

The USS SMB Elite series addresses a specific deployment gap: clients who need more than consumer NAS reliability but don't have datacenter infrastructure. RAID 5 striping with parity means you can lose a drive without losing recorded evidence—critical when you're managing retention policies for liability protection or investigative workflows. The system handles the sustained write loads from multiple megapixel cameras while maintaining read performance for live monitoring and forensic review.
This server integrates directly into FLIR's United VMS architecture, eliminating compatibility guesswork during system commissioning. For integrators managing multiple sites or supporting clients who will scale camera counts over time, the SMB Elite platform provides a stable foundation that doesn't require specialized IT staff to maintain. You're delivering a turnkey recording solution that balances performance, redundancy, and total cost of ownership for the commercial security market segment that demands reliability without enterprise complexity.
