Everyone wants a convenient store space for the gigabytes of data they acquire. And want to be able to access from anywhere on the local network and the wider internet. Thus the hardware is getting increasingly powerful. High-end NAS boxes for small businesses and large homes are moving from ARM processors to Intel’s Atom platform, and turning simple file servers into far more capable mini-machines in the process.

A Network Attached Storage drive is more you think than simply a hard drive connected to your network for ease of access. If you want to make your own server just attach a dedicated server and enjoy the benefits. Depending upon your estimated expenses you can share media files directly from the drive. For that you have to set up Bit Torrent connections independent of your PC and then augment your NAS drive further by connecting various USB devices.

Setting up of NAS drives are also very simple as in most cases you plug in the drive to a power socket, connect it to an Ethernet port on your router and then switch it on. It will automatically appear on your network for ready to use. For most advanced settings NAS drives come with software. Alternatively, you can also access the drive’s configuration tools directly through your web browser by entering its IP address. Once you are finished with the set up you can connect to your NAS drive using a FTP client or your browser.

NAS has arisen as a powerful, proven technology for storing data that needs to be shared in the office or the home. NAS devices accredit home and business users to easily share large amounts of data in a cost-effective and efficient manner.
