I use them so often that I even have a small personal NAS setup at home for my own network. I personally have been using a Synology network drive for my Production and Post-Production teams since 2015. Synology have been in the NAS game for years and they have a great reputation among network enthusiasts and engineers for being easy to setup and easy to run with few faults ever occurring.
Again, check the article I linked above for more on RAID setups and how they can work for you. Which would protect you from corruptions and disk failures, it is also optimized for operations that require high disk performance, such as video editing. For example is you were to have a Synology RAID 10 NAS set up you could have disk mirroring and striping. NASs can be setup in a variety of RAID levels or it can be set up to just use the storage drives as they are without failure tolerance. The storage capacities of NAS enclosures can be anything from a couple of Terabytes up to Petabytes of storage space. The reason for not having an interface is because the computer runs its own operating system and can be accessed from any web browser on any computer on your network once the NAS is connected to your network. The enclosure has a small computer and generally no real viewing interface. A NAS is a physical enclosure that holds anywhere from 1-24 bays for HDDs or SSDs. In more specific terms a NAS stands for ‘Network Attached Storage’. I go in to a bit more depth about this question in my Storage Solutions for Large Post-Production Setups post:īut for a quick overview now, you should know that a NAS is essentially a small computer with a lot of storage that can be accessed by computers on your local area network and if you want it to, be accessed externally too.
