NAS may seem simple—just a box on your network for shared files—but there's a world beneath the surface. In this deep dive, we unpack the critical decisions behind NAS setup and protection:
- Why NAS is ideal for unstructured data like documents, videos, and creative projects
- The truth about RAID: What it protects, and where it falls short
- Choosing the right drives: NAS-rated vs. desktop vs. enterprise, and the DIY world of “shucking”
- Scaling limitations and performance bottlenecks of traditional NAS systems
- Smarter backup and DR: How tools like Dell PowerProtect and Xmirror are reshaping NAS protection
- The rise of Software-Defined Storage and object storage—and when to consider them
Whether you’re a home user juggling terabytes of media or an IT pro safeguarding business-critical data, this episode helps you rethink your NAS strategy from storage selection to smart protection.
