WD Purple Pro and Seagate SkyHawk AI drives, 25/100GbE networking, and ZFS sequential-write tuning - on-premise storage built for IP camera systems and healthcare archives. From $4,995.
FREMONT, Calif. - Californer -- eRacks Systems today launched dedicated Video NAS (VNAS) configurations for IP camera systems, video management software (VMS), and other 24x7 sequential-write workloads. The new VNAS line targets surveillance, broadcast, post-production, and healthcare PACS deployments - workloads where consumer-grade NAS drives fail prematurely under continuous write pressure.
VNAS configurations ship with surveillance-certified drives: WD Purple Pro for general VMS workloads, or Seagate SkyHawk AI for camera-side analytics. Both are CMR (not SMR) drives, rated for 24x7 sequential writes and the workload pattern that multi-camera 4K H.265 streams produce. Standard desktop drives and read-tuned NAS drives wear out quickly in surveillance use; surveillance-certified drives are engineered for it.

eRacks VNAS systems pair these drives with 25 or 100 gigabit Ethernet networking, ZFS RAIDZ2 or RAIDZ3 with sequential-write tuning, and a choice of TrueNAS Scale, Proxmox, or Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. The systems work with any VMS - Milestone, Genetec, Frigate, ZoneMinder, BluVMS - rather than locking customers into bundled NVR software.
Typical scale: an eRacks/NAS24 (24 bays, ~480TB raw) handles 50 to 100 4K cameras with multi-week retention. The 50-bay eRacks/NAS50 covers 200+ cameras or broadcast archive workloads. The 72-bay eRacks/NAS72 scales to petabyte-class surveillance backends. Pricing starts at $4,995 for the 8-bay NAS8 and reaches $24,995 for the petabyte NAS72.
The same architecture supports healthcare PACS imaging, clinical research datasets, and HIPAA-aligned electronic medical record (EMR) backends. eRacks Healthcare NAS configurations ship with full audit logging, ZFS native encryption, and no telemetry, keeping protected health information inside the customer firewall.
