As well as providing small businesses with an affordable option to extend backup storage capacities, the DriveStation Quattro has been designed as a secondary backup device to other rackmount servers, via eSATA or USB 2.0, including Buffalo's TeraStation Pro II Rackmount NAS product.

Available in 1.0 and 2.0TB capacities, the device features five operational modes (Standard, Spanning, RAID 0/1/5) for full data redundancy. Its "Plug-n-Play" connection makes it easy to use and at 2U high and 19" wide, it easily integrates into any standard server cabinet. The drive also comes with an auto power feature, which turns the device on/off automatically with your PC, when connected via USB.

Other key features and benefits include:

- Four high speed (7,200 RPM) eSATA hard drives.
- Hardware RAID controller for increased performance and faster data transfer rates.
- Quick swap hard drive trays for easy access and replacement.
- Ready to use eSATA cable and bracket.
- Easy to use Windows utility for changing RAID modes.
- Minimal power consumption and near silent operation.

Kevin Vine, EMEA Sales and Marketing Director at Buffalo Technology, comments:

"Over the past few months, we have successfully introduced the rackmount chassis into our storage product range to provide small businesses with an affordable solution which fits in with their existing IT infrastructure. This latest offering provides a cost effective, secure backup option for Buffalo's own range of TeraStation Pro II NAS Rackmount devices, or indeed any rackmount server requiring a backup solution."


Backed by a limited two-year warranty, the DriveStation Quattro Rackmount is available now from leading retail and business partners across the Middle East.

Buffalo is constantly reviewing and revising the prices of all its products in line with market demand.
