Ī word on pricing: Outside of Seagate and WD, NAS box vendors don’t manufacture hard drives, and sell their boxes “unpopulated ” i.e., without any hard drives installed. If you experience a disaster at home-a flood, fire, or earthquake-you’ll at least have the peace of mind that comes with knowing your data is safely backed up at another physical location. To get the best of both worlds, most boxes will sync with cloud storage services, providing another layer of data redundancy and disaster-recovery options. There’s a lot to like about this two-bay NAS box, starting with its support for 10-gigabit ethernet, but you can say the same for several other new boxes in this space, which is to say the competition is stiff. Updated November 18, 2020 to add our TerraMaster F2-422 review.
In fact, NAS box builders have taken to calling their products “private clouds” in an effort to make the concept more familiar to consumers. It’s also easy to set up a NAS box to function just like those cloud services, enabling access from anywhere in the world. Backing up to local storage is much faster than relying on a cloud service such as DropBox or OneDrive, and the same goes for restoring an accidentally deleted file or recovering from a crashed system. NAS is also immensely handy for backing up and synchronizing the data on your computers and mobile devices. It can be just like Spotify, YouTube, or Netflix, except with your own media.
Network-attached storage (NAS) is just the ticket for storing and streaming your own videos, music, and digital photos around the house and even across the world.
