Q: How much capacity is enough for ASUSTOR NAS?

2023-09-01


#NAS #capacity #FAQ

Here are some things to consider when choosing ASUSTOR NAS capacity:

  • Storage Requirements: The first thing to consider is your storage requirements, i.e. how much data you need to store. If you only need to store small files such as documents, photos, etc., then a smaller capacity NAS may suffice, such as a 2 Bay. If you need to store a lot of HD videos, music, or large CAD files, then you'll need a NAS with a larger capacity than a 2 Bay.
  • Long-term needs: The next thing to consider is your long-term storage needs, i.e. how much storage capacity you expect to need in the future. If your storage needs will continue to grow, then a larger capacity NAS may be a better choice. If your storage needs are relatively stable, a smaller capacity NAS may be more affordable.
  • Budget: In addition to your storage needs, your budget is also an important factor to consider; ASUSTOR NASes vary in price depending on their capacity and features. You need to choose the right NAS according to your budget.
  • Future Expansion and Security Needs: Finally, you need to consider your future expansion needs. If you anticipate that you will need to expand the capacity of your NAS in the future, then purchasing a NAS that supports RAID technology may be a better option. This will make it easier for you to expand your storage capacity in the future.
