Network-attached storage (NAS) is a device that stores shared files on your local network. It’s a great solution for collaboration. You and your team can use it as a centralized place to organize the files in your projects.
A NAS is just a computer with storage drives on your local network that’s dedicated to storing and sharing files. Your computer and other computers access these files as shared folders.
You probably already use cloud storage. But because it’s on your local network, a NAS has a few advantages:
- It’s faster because data doesn’t have to travel through the internet.
- It’s always available, even when your internet service fails.
- You have more control over file access and other management tasks.
