Network attached storage (NAS) devices are designed to create easily expandable and secure data storage devices. They usually feature multiple drives, RAID protection options and hot-swap capabilities for reducing down time should drive failure occur. Software-powered features vary depending on the operating system included, and the processor and memory onboard, but may include automated backups, remote access, VPN, encryption, snapshots and advanced RAID configurations.

These NAS devices are small form factor desktop units designed toehold either a single or twin drives. Twin drive units will feature RAID 0 or 1 options.

Software-powered features vary depending on the operating system included, and the processor and memory onboard, but may include automated backups, remote access, VPN, encryption, snapshots and advanced RAID configurations. Rackmount units may also feature multiple network ports, up to 10Gb/s connectivity, redundant power supplies and the ability to connect additional disk shelves to expand capacity.

These rackmount NAS devices hold 12 to 60 drives in a 2U to 4U space. Fully populated units allow RAID levels of 0, 1, 5, 6 , 10, 50 and 60 on to be configured on most models. Scan recommends using NAS-optimised hard disk drives (HDDs) in these enclosures as the vibration generated from multiple drives spinning can reduce lifespan in standard HDDs.

SSDs (Solid State Drives) are the fastest type of data storage device, cutting game and application load times while boosting overall system responsiveness versus HDDs (Hard Disk Drives). SSDs are more resilient and consume less power than HDDs, making them an ideal choice for laptops.

M.2 NVMe SSDs are ideal for desktop PCs, laptops, external enclosures and NAS boxes, connecting directly to the motherboard using an M.2 slot. These particular PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSDs communicate at up to 3,950MB/s and have a capacity of up to 500GB.

You can check the compatibility of these SSDs with your system in your component documentation or our buyers guide.

HDDs (Hard Disk Drives) are the most cost effective data storage device. While HDDs are considerably slower than SSDs, you get considerably more TB of storage per pound spent. Server HDDs are designed for 24/7 usage and differ from consumer HDDs in having greater endurance and longer warranties.

SAS HDDs are for use in hot swap 3.5in drive bays, connecting to the server via a SAS backplane and controller. These particular SAS HDDss communicate at up to 22,500MB/s and come in a wide variety of capacities.

A broadband connection into the home is now almost a given’s more devices such as smart phones, tablets, laptops, PCs, smart TVs, heating, lighting and security devices are increasingly able to take advantage of an Internet connection for online gaming, remote operation or monitoring. A broadband router with increasingly powerful wireless capabilities is key to home and smart home connectivity.

These routers are based on the 802.11ac wireless standard (Wi-Fi 5) and offer greater speed and range than previous 802.11n (Wi-Fi 4) routers. They feature dual-band (2.4GHz / 5GHz) capability for segregating device connections for better performance, although it is important to remember that quoted Mbps speeds per bandwidth cannot be combined.
