16TB 4-bay desktop NAS

The Buffalo TeraStation 3030 TS3430DN1602 is a new desktop network-attached storage device pre-populated with 16TB of capacity across two 8TB drives. An Annapurna Labs Alpine AL-524 quad-core processor running at 2.0GHz and 2GB of DDR4 memory power the unit. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10 and JBOD for flexible data protection.

Suits small teams needing multi-gigabit LAN

Dual Ethernet ports provide one 2.5GbE and one 1GbE connection for link aggregation or separate traffic paths. Two USB 3.0 ports allow external backup or printer sharing. The four-bay chassis leaves two empty SATA bays for future expansion using compatible OP-HD8.0N drives. Buyers who require 10GbE connectivity, larger pre-installed capacity, or more than 2GB of system memory should consider other solutions.

Dual 2.5GbE and 1GbE ports decide fit

The combination of a single 2.5GbE port and a single 1GbE port is the specification that determines whether this NAS matches your network infrastructure. If your switch or router only offers 1GbE ports, the 2.5GbE link will negotiate down to 1GbE, limiting peak throughput. Verify your network hardware supports 2.5GbE to use the faster interface.

Questions about this item

Do I need to buy additional hard drives for the four-bay TeraStation 3030 to reach the full 16 TB capacity?

No, the unit ships with two 8 TB drives installed for 16 TB total; the other two bays remain empty for future expansion.

Will the 2.5 GbE and 1 GbE ports work with my existing gigabit switch and Cat 5e cabling?

Yes, both RJ-45 ports are backward compatible with 1 GbE and 100 MbE networks using standard Cat 5e or better cables.

Which front-panel LEDs confirm the RAID array is healthy after initial setup?

The Power LED stays solid on, each installed drive shows a steady HDD LED, and the LAN LED lights for an active network link.
