My Favorite NAS

If you are looking for an affordable personal or office data storage solution, then you need to consider a network appliance server from QNAP.  This product has more features then the average user can use.

I use the NAS by QNAP for data storage for my office and personal files.  My recommended configuration is to use a two bay storage unit running large hard drives that are configured for RAID 1 “Mirrored” drives.  Which simply means every piece of data coming into the drive is cloned with copies placed on both drives.  The advantage of this is that if one fails the other drive can provide the information.  And with the  “Hot Swap” option you can leave the unit,  replace the failed drive and the unit will rebuild and re-clone the new hard drive to match.
