If you are impatient to finish reading my review, then here’s my conclusion: I will definitely be keeping the TS-230 running after my review. And I am going to relate my experience to people who are new to NAS and are wondering – like myself – why you should run a NAS at home. What I am covering here is from a new user’s perspective. He has over 10 years of experience in running NAS. If you are looking for a more advanced comparison of NAS products, I recommend you to visit Lester Chan’s blog. I read up further on QNAP and found out that their NAS runs on their own QTS operating system and supports hundreds of installable applications, of which many are free, while some are chargeable by license subscription. When QNAP approached me to review NAS, I initially declined because I still held the old mindset that they are slow and I don’t have the real need to run another device at home.īut after QNAP introduced to me their popular entry-level NAS, TS-230, retailing at S$289 (without HDD), it got me interested. The biggest brands in NAS are Synology and QNAP, with many other storage brands also offering basic NAS features, like Seagate and Western Digital. Many routers come with basic NAS support but there aren’t a lot of functions, and they are difficult to access outside the home network. In all my decades in dabbling with computers and technology, I have never owned a Network Attached Storage (NAS).
