What is the difference between NDAS and other network storage solution (NAS)
 

NDAS technology is the world's most advanced and smart network storage solution. Other competitor network storage solutions like NAS are still based on decade-old technology. Consequently, NDAS enables many advanced features and a higher performance standard which other solutions are not able to provide.


Core Merits of NDAS

- Easy Setup
There is no need to configure TCP/IP settings. Just install the included driver and software and you are ready to use.

- Easy Use
NetDISK works just as your local drive. No complicated file sharing configuration is needed. Use NetDISK just like your local drive over the network and save and share everything easily.

- Scalability
NetDISK is designed for expansion. Add additional NetDISK to your network as your storage need grows. No complicated configuration is required. Plug additional NetDISK to your network, now you are ready to use extra storage.

- Professional Features
With two or more NetDISks on the network, you can enjoy all the professional features like aggregation, mirroring, and striping. RAID features makes NetDISK even more reliable storage solution for your Home and Office network.

- Controlled Security
NetDISK has unique security features attributed by its unique protocol. NetDISK is invisible from Internet or to those who do not have its unique device ID.


NDAS vs NAS

NDAS system
NAS system
Next generation advanced technology
Based on old technology (PC file sharing)
Higher performance (up to 6 times faster)
Lower and limited performance
RAID, Aggregation, Mirroring, Unlimited expansion
Not possible between multiple NAS systems
Simple, easy, no need IP setting
Complex, Difficult, IP setting, DHCP setting required
