Q: What are the basic storage principles of a NAS device?

2024-02-22


#NAS #FAQ

Network Attached Storage (NAS) is a file-based data storage solution that supports three main types of storage, namely:
  1. File Storage: Data is stored in the form of files, usually organized into a hierarchical directory structure that allows users to easily organize and manage files. This is the most common and popular storage method for file sharing and general applications.
  2. Block storage: Files are divided into small blocks, each of which stores a specific address that is used by the server's operating system to restore the complete file. This method provides faster access and is particularly suitable for high-performance applications.
  3. Object Storage: Data is stored discretely in the form of objects, each containing data, metadata (descriptive content), and a unique identifier. This is ideal for storing unstructured files such as emails, videos, photos, web pages, and sensory data generated by the Internet of Things (IoT).
Each of these three types of storage has its own unique advantages, such as file storage for local file sharing, block storage for high-performance applications, and object storage for a variety of unstructured file types. Organizations can choose the most suitable storage method based on their needs and application scenarios.
