Choose the capacity that fits your growth. While both models share the same rugged reliability, the 20TB model offers higher data density and faster sustained transfer speeds.
Seamless Firmware Updates
Keep your drives at peak performance without technical hurdles. Firmware updates are delivered directly via Synology DSM, ensuring zero-hassle maintenance.
27% Faster RAID Repair
System-level integration allows these drives to rebuild RAID arrays significantly faster than generic third-party drives, minimizing your downtime.
Multi-Platform Compatibility
While optimized for Synology, these drives are a high-performance alternative for Hikvision, Dahua, and UniFi Protect NVRs and video recorders.
Small Office Optimized
Ideal for multi-user environments (SOHO), providing consistent performance even when multiple users are accessing the NAS simultaneously.
Will this work in Hikvision, Dahua, or UniFi Protect?
Yes. The HAT3320 is a standard 3.5" SATA drive and is fully compatible with Hikvision NVRs, Dahua NVRs, and Ubiquiti UniFi (Dream Machine Pro, UNVR). It is an excellent high-performance upgrade over standard surveillance drives.
What is the benefit of CMR over SMR?
CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording) allows for faster, more consistent write speeds during large data transfers or RAID rebuilds, which is critical for NAS and NVR health and longevity.
Is the 20TB model louder than the 8TB?
Actually, the 20TB model uses advanced helium-sealed technology, which results in lower friction, lower power consumption, and often quieter operation compared to traditional air-filled drives.
Does this include a 3-Year Warranty?
Yes. Every Synology Plus Series drive is backed by a 3-year limited warranty, supported locally by CCTV Guru's Australian technical team.
