Basics
- A Data Storage Server for a LAN (Although if not Air Gapped can be accessed remotely)
- Often abbreviated as NAS
- Useful for a Personal (ie no Monthly Fees short of Cost of Electricity and paying off components) version of Cloud Storage
- Offloads Storage Needs from Smartphones, Laptops, etc while still "keeping" the data
- For Group Environments it can allow for high speed data tranfer across the editing team since it is all on a local server, and you can even use high speed networking such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet , as opposed to having to upload/download to a nearby cloud server as fast as your IP allows, and for each pc
Internal Links
- RAID Array (A method of redundant multi-disc storage often used in NAS devices, which can also be used as a standalone External Drive in theory via USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 etc)
