Installing a NAS on your home network may sound difficult and some home users might wonder why they even need one to start with. There are several ways that even casual computer users can find having a NAS will make their lives easier and their data safer.

Local External Hard Drive

Many people have an external hard drive they keep around for data storage for files to big to keep on their computer. Others might use it to backup important files such as word documents, digital photos, etc. The main problem with an external hard drive is that you have to be physically connected to it by a cable and have it turned on to be able to access the data stored on it. The second problem is that only one computer is able to directly access it at a time. A network storage device can solve those problems.

A NAS is an external hard drive that every computer on your network can access. It connects to your router with an ethernet cable. Computers, whether they have wired or wireless connections, can access the NAS. Now you can have one central location to store documents that all users might want to access.
