The ASUSTOR NAS can be connected to your TV in several ways:

  • HDMI Connection: If your ASUSTOR NAS has an HDMI connector, you can connect the NAS directly to your TV's HDMI connector and operate the NAS through the TV remote control just like a computer. This way, you can watch movies, photos and music stored on the NAS on a big screen for a better viewing experience.
