Keep critical files close, available, and under your control with the Buffalo TeraStation 3430DN NAS 16TB. This desktop NAS ships partially populated with 2 x 8 TB NAS hard drives, giving you 16 TB of usable installed capacity while leaving 2 drive bays open for future growth. That makes it a practical fit for teams that want to start with real capacity now and expand later without a forklift replacement. With 2.5 GbE connectivity, RAID support, and iSCSI, the 3430DN is built for dependable shared storage in small business and branch office environments. It is designed to serve file storage, backup targets, and application data with the kind of local performance and control that cloud-only options cannot match. The desktop form factor keeps deployment simple, while the partially populated design helps you balance upfront cost against future capacity needs. For infrastructure teams, the value is in the balance: enough capacity to matter, enough expansion to stay relevant, and the network and storage features needed to support day-to-day operations with confidence.
