1. What can NDAS devices be used for?

NDAS devices can be used with a variety of applications. It is ideal for all users that

cannot afford NAS systems, such as small to medium businesses, SOHO (Small Office

Home Office), work-groups, departments, schools and public institutions. NDAS

technology’s convenience and low cost provides the best storage solution for home /

office networking.

• Use as storage for Personal Computers and Home Networking (storing and

sharing files, backup / archiving, etc.)

• Expanding storage requirements.

• Business primary or secondary network storage.

• Public institution’s storage for data archives, disclosed data, backups, and

data conservation.

Windows)

• Non-PC / Non-Computing applications (security, CCTV, technograph

recording, MRI, entertainment).

2. How is NDAS different from NAS or SAN?

NDAS is a better alternative to NAS or SAN. NDAS is much more cost-effective, efficient

and easy to use. It is for users looking for lower costs and storage associated with

backup / archiving. Although both NDAS and NAS are storage devices that are

implemented over a network, NDAS takes up less space than NAS or SAN products.

NDAS utilizes NDAS technology allowing it to connect the hard disk directly to a network

without a server. In NAS, the hard disk must be connected to a storage server, which

must also be connected to the network.

3. For NDAS mode, do I need drivers installed on each computer using NDAS

device?

Yes, the drivers need to be installed on each computer that wants access to NDAS

device. However, if you are using Windows Sharing, only one computer will need the

software installed (Computer must be on as a “Host” computer). The other computers

will not need it.
