What is a Network Attached Storage (NAS)?

Asked 6 months ago
A Network Attached Storage (NAS) is a storage device connected to a network that allows multiple users to store and access data from a centralized location. It serves as a reliable and convenient solution for individuals and businesses seeking to manage and share data efficiently. NAS devices typically come with multiple hard drive bays, which can be populated with hard drives of different capacities to create a large storage pool. Users can access the NAS and its contents through a web interface or dedicated software, enabling remote file access and collaboration. Moreover, NAS systems often offer advanced features such as data protection, automatic backups, and media streaming, making them versatile devices that cater to various storage needs.
