Will the TeraStack® Solution really be more cost-efficient than other data storage and video surveillance systems?
Yes, the TBYTe® is significantly less expensive than current RAID systems considering not only the price of the equipment, but also operating costs, maintenance of hardware and software costs, power and cooling costs, and staffing. The TBYTe® unit is typically 50% less costly than RAID systems upon installation, and it can save as much as 90% over several years of operation compared to RAID systems. The TeraStack® Solution costs $71 per terabyte per year; current RAID systems cost $277 per terabyte per year. For video surveillance systems, the HIE-DVR™ costs $2,665 per camera per year compared to RAID systems that cost $15,201 per camera per year.
