Executive Quotes
“The new Iomega StorCenter Network Video Recorder is the ideal integrated video management system for today’s small and mid-sized businesses, retail chains and remote enterprise offices, providing an easy to deploy, high performance and reliable video surveillance solution,” said Mike Nikzad, Chief Operating Officer, Iomega Corporation. “Combining versatile network storage with a leading video management application, Iomega’s new StorCenter NVRs provide a compelling alternative solution to traditional NVR products. With server class hard drives and the option for offsite cloud storage, just to name a few important features, the Iomega StorCenter NVR can grow with the video surveillance needs of our customers.”
“Engineering a security surveillance solution that is dependable and has the right mix of features and capabilities for expert small- to mid-sized camera installations is no small undertaking,” said Tom Burns, director and general manager, Physical Security, Ingram Micro North America, one of Iomega’s top distribution partners. “The straight-forward setup process within Iomega’s new StorCenter NVRs not only simplifies the job of the surveillance installer, which is always important, but it also gives the technician or end-user more control and confidence by providing the ability to adjust and monitor the system offsite with a smart device.

Key Features of the New Iomega StorCenter Network Video Recorder (NVR)
The new Iomega StorCenter NVR has all of the features of Iomega’s award-winning desktop network storage devices, including the EMC® LifeLine™ operating system as well as local and cloud network storage capabilities that enhance the customized video surveillance functionality.
The new Iomega StorCenter NVR will be available in three versions: a two-drive model loaded with a pair of 2TB Server Class hard drives for 4TB of total storage capacity; a partially-loaded four-drive model with a pair of 3TB Server Class drives for 6TB of total storage capacity; and a fully-loaded four-drive model with four 3TB Server Class drives for a total of 12TB of storage capacity. The 4TB and 6TB models include four camera licenses each; the 12TB model includes eight camera licenses. Each device can support up to 16 cameras.
The integrated SecureMind Surveillance Manager video management software expands the Iomega StorCenter NVR into a feature-rich video surveillance appliance. The Iomega StorCenter NVR delivers multi-channel live monitoring, video recording, and fast video playback with multiple IP cameras (cameras not included). With built-in storage capacity, the archiving and retention capabilities are exceptional for surveillance video.
