The TeraStation™ 3420 series is a high-performance, cost-effective 4-bay Network Attached Storage (NAS) solution, ideal for small businesses and demanding small office and home office (SOHO) users. With a powerful Annapurna Labs Alpine AL-214 1.4 GHz quad-core processor, it provides speedy transfer rates and stable operation during heavy-load work tasks. The robust central processing unit (CPU) and 1 GB of DDR3 RAM means it can run multiple services simultaneously. This allows businesses to focus on concurrent tasks with minimal performance degradation.
Rsynch Feature
Users can make backup copies from TeraStation to a rsync-compatible device from another manufacturer. This function also allows backups to be made from another manufacturer’s rsync-compatible NAS to the TeraStation NAS.
Active Directory
TeraStation functions as a client of an Active Directory domain, so that domain users and groups can be used. This means that they can be used in domain environments of companies with up to 10,000 users and groups.
Hot-swap function increases data security
With the hot swap function, the TeraStation™ automatically switches off the defective hard disk even if one hard disk fails, so that it can be replaced safely without interrupting work or losing data.
Cloud-ready!
Buffalo’s TeraStation Series features B-Sync, which allows users to easily synchronize files between their TeraStation and 3rd party cloud services to make backups. The Buffalo NAS supports Amazon S3 Cloud Services, Dropbox, OneDrive and Azure.
Including Buffalo VIP service

Intuitive web management interface
The web interface has a dashboard that offers the user more effective views of system status, the ability to resize windows (even on the phone) and a more comfortable button layout.
DDR3 memory
Fast DDR3 memory.
iSCSI target support
Works simultaneously as NAS and iSCSI target.
Equipped with reliable NAS HDDs
This series is completely equipped with special NAS hard drives – for even more performance and reliability in RAID and continuous operation.
Replication with TeraStation
By replication, a folder in two separate TeraStations™ is synchronized almost in real time. This only happens in one direction (not bi-directional) – from the source to the destination. This function can be set up in LAN and WAN. WAN setup includes remote connection via port forwarding and VPN setup.
