The Bosch Dual Controller Unit 12x8TB is a premier member of the DSA E2800 family, the next generation of Bosch’s DSA E-Series. Engineered for the security industry’s most demanding digital video storage needs, this iSCSI-based disk array delivers relentless performance, rock-solid reliability, and scalable capacity to handle vast archives of surveillance footage. With dual controllers for high availability and a pipeline designed to sustain continuous recording, the Bosch DSA E2800 unit is purpose-built to keep critical video data accessible, searchable, and securely stored across distributed camera networks. This dual-controller storage solution is ideal for large-scale deployments, including airports, stadiums, city surveillance, critical infrastructure, and enterprise-grade surveillance ecosystems that require predictable throughput and robust data protection.

  • Enterprise-grade reliability with dual controllers - A redundant controller architecture provides failover protection and uninterrupted operation, ensuring surveillance systems stay online 24/7 even during maintenance or component failures.
  • Massive storage capacity ready for long retention - 12 drive bays housing 8 TB enterprise HDDs deliver a total raw capacity of 96 TB, enabling extended retention policies and high-density video storage without frequent expansion.
  • iSCSI-based storage for easy integration - Built for IP-based surveillance networks, the DSA E2800 uses standard iSCSI connectivity to align with routine IT infrastructure, simplifying deployment alongside other NAS/SAN storage and video management software.
  • Optimized for continuous video workloads - Engineered to support sustained write-heavy workloads common in video surveillance, with data paths optimized for predictable ingest rates, quick access to recent footage, and fast recovery for investigations.
  • Seamless management and scalable growth - Centralized management tools and remote monitoring capabilities enable rapid provisioning, health checks, alerts, and scalable expansion to accommodate growing surveillance fleets and retention requirements.

Technical Details of Bosch Dual Controller Unit 12x8TB

  • Storage capacity: 96 TB raw (12 x 8 TB enterprise HDDs). Actual usable space depends on RAID level and data protection configuration.
  • Controller architecture: Dual-controller design for high availability, load balancing, and fault tolerance to minimize downtime in security deployments.
  • Interface and connectivity: iSCSI-based storage networking with enterprise-class reliability and compatibility with standard IP networks and VMware/Hyper-V environments via iSCSI targets.
  • Drive bays and type: 12 bays populated with 8 TB enterprise HDDs engineered for write-intensive, long-retention video workloads; hot-swappable drive capability supported for maintenance without downtime.
  • Power and form factor: Designed for enterprise rack installations with options for redundant power supplies to maximize uptime and resilience in mission-critical applications.

how to install Bosch Dual Controller Unit 12x8TB

Installing the Bosch Dual Controller Unit 12x8TB involves configuring the storage appliance to integrate with your surveillance network, provisioning storage, and mapping it to your video management system or hosts. Follow these high-level steps to deploy with minimal disruption to ongoing operations:

  • Prepare and rack the appliance - Install the unit in a suitable data-center rack or cabinet, ensuring proper airflow and clearance around vents. Confirm mounting hardware and cable pathways meet your facility’s safety and electrical requirements.
  • Connect power and network - Attach redundant power sources if available, and connect the iSCSI networking interface to your management network. Use separate networks for management, iSCSI data, and video traffic if possible to optimize performance and security.
  • Initial boot and management access - Power on the unit and access the management interface through the dedicated console port or the configured IP address. Authenticate using the provided administrator credentials and follow the on-screen setup wizard to initialize the system.
  • Configure storage pools and protection - Create storage pools using the 12 x 8 TB drives and establish the desired data protection strategy (RAID level, hot spares, and redundancy) suitable for your retention policy and degradation tolerance.
  • Create iSCSI targets and map to hosts - Define iSCSI targets and LUNs, then map them to your surveillance servers, video management software, or virtualization hosts. Test connectivity from each host and verify consistent performance across the network.
  • Set up monitoring, alerts, and backups - Enable health monitoring, email/SNMP alerts, and interval-based backups or replication to a secondary site if your security requirements demand off-site copies or disaster recovery capabilities.

These shelves are rey stylish, light and durable! The set came with everything needed to install. The color is just as described. Price is steal and these shelves can definitely be used anywhere throughout the house. I did give it only 4 stars because as you can see in the photos, the underneath was not completely finished. Decided to keep because the price was unbeatable.
