Best 4-Bay NAS Device
Networked storage solutions are a necessity for any business with a foot in today's digital business landscape, though the high cost of buying and maintaining standalone storage servers has been a major stumbling block. NAS devices have stepped in to fill that gap with affordable solutions that not only offer excellent performance and value for money, but also low maintenance and easy administration - a boon for small business that want the security of redundant storage without having to pay through the nose.
