Network Attached Storage (NAS) - Concept:
If you need access to your data from all of your devices, but ‘cloud based’ storage for whatever reason isn’t an option, a Network Attached Storage or NAS may be the solution for you. NAS devices basically run as embedded (file) server on your network, can hold up to 100 TB and more of data, and provide different levels of data redundancy keeping your data intact and accessible even in case of a drive failure.
Supported Brands:
We provide Consultation and Installation Services for Network Attached Storage Devices of most brands, including Asustor, Buffalo, Drobo, Netgear, QNAP, Synology, TerraMaster, Western Digital, and many others.
Our NAS Services cover:
- Consultation and Device Selection: We collect detailed information on your specific use cases, applications, typical data access patterns and storage needs. Based on this analysis, we recommend the exact NAS make, model and configuration perfectly covering your needs.
- Installation: After you purchased the NAS device and the hard disk drives used in the NAS, we install and configure the device for you. We also provide a dedicated brief hands-on training on best use, maintenance and administration of the device.
Important Notes:
- While the initial cost of NAS devices may be significant (starting at ~$400), they do not require any ongoing subscription fees as e.g. cloud-based storage.
- Even with data redundancy provided by NAS devices, additional data backup solutions should be in place.
