General Advice

4TB Network Attached Storage (NAS) is extremely popular within homes and companies alike, as it offers an easy and economic solution for up to 4TB of data storage via wired or wireless connections. Quick and simple to install, 4TB Network Attached Storage devices allow you to instantly store and share your documents, images, music, videos, and other files via any locally networked or Internet based computer / appliance.

RAID Storage and Protection

You can store a huge amount of data on a 4TB NAS, the more you store, the more you will need to protect your data. RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a key feature allowing data to be written across multiple drives to ensure data is not lost should a drive fail. RAID is a feature of NAS enclosures of 2 or more bays/hard drives.

Some of the products within this category are also DLNA certified, meaning that you can access your multimedia files using a media player or Smart TV without even having to switch on your PC or go through the complicated setup process to access the files.
