Frequently asked questions

How does the DSA E-Series E4000 scale as video retention requirements grow?

The controller unit features 12 internal hard disk drives and can be easily expanded by connecting additional expansion units via a SAS interface. This allows organizations to increase storage capacity seamlessly as operational needs and camera counts expand.

Does the storage system support environments running Intelligent Video Analytics?

Yes, the system is engineered to handle the intensive read and write workloads generated by high-resolution cameras and Intelligent Video Analytics. Two 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports provide the high-speed iSCSI connectivity necessary to process rich metadata and ensure teams can transform video into real-time understanding.

How does the system protect critical video data from hardware failure?

The storage solution utilizes configurable hardware-based protection, offering options for RAID-5, RAID-6, or Dynamic Disk Pools (DDP). This helps ensure that critical video footage remains secure and accessible, allowing security teams to maintain continuous awareness.

How does the DSA E-Series 4000 handle network or controller issues?

In dual-controller systems, an advanced multipathing solution integrates directly with IP cameras and Video Recording Manager (VRM) software. This creates a highly resilient architecture that automatically mitigates potential network and controller failures, keeping security operations running without interruption.

What level of maintenance support is included with the system?

The hardware is protected by NetApp services, which includes three years of next-business-day on-site support. This provides IT and security leaders with the confidence that their critical infrastructure will be maintained promptly, minimizing potential downtime.
