Product Features
Technical Overview
This NAS storage system features a single-core processor running at 1 GHz, paired with 1 GB of DDR3 SDRAM to handle file system operations and network protocols efficiently. The storage architecture supports one hard drive bay, which is pre-populated with a 4 TB drive, providing the full supported capacity from the start. The system does not include RAID capabilities, operating as a single-drive storage pool ideal for basic storage needs.
Network connectivity is provided through a Gigabit Ethernet port, ensuring reliable wired connections for data transfers across local networks. Expansion options include one USB 3.0 port for adding external storage or other USB devices, and the system has one total expansion bay, though it is already occupied by the installed drive.
