QNAP TS-201 Turbo Station, Twin hard drive 9 in 1 NAS Server

TS-201 NETWORK ATTACHED STORAGE (NAS) SERVER

TS-201 is a low cost full-featured, 2-bay, RAID 1, hot-swappable Network Attached Storage (NAS) server with a compact design. It provides shared data to clients and other servers on a Local Area Network (LAN). TS-201 is designed for medium/small office or solution providers who have networked storage requirements across Windows and Mac environments. TS-201 is also designed for users who do not have MIS people or who desire to maintain the server by themselves. Compared to a traditional file server, it is priced at a fraction of the cost. The compact size and large storage capacity provide highest price/performance ratio.
