/ The Best Alternative to Mobile Hard Disk

With the changes of the times and technological progress, the data generated by everyone is exploding, and more and more hard disk space is occupied. For individuals, adding a mobile hard drive to a computer seems to be the best choice, but data between different memories cannot be transferred directly, so more and more people are starting to own their own network cloud disk- NAS. Let‘s see why NAS can be the best alternative to mobile hard drives.

1.Faster processing speed, better hardware equipment

If the mobile hard disk collides or falls during use, it may bring trouble in file reading and writing. Long-term use will also affect the performance of the hard disk. However, NAS device usually has a metal cover, which is not easy to damage. The read and write speed of NAS is also faster, which can reach 510MB/S. Usually the power consumption of a NAS is lower than that of a computer, and a long-term standby NAS consumes less power.

2.Data sharing management

If you want to access and exchange files with multiple users, the mobile hard disk must be used in turn, or a computer need to be used as a shared setting, which is very inconvenient, resulting in a waste of time and inconvenience. Through the NAS, you can directly put the mobile hard disk into the NAS and fix it. You only need to save the files and share the disk through the network to allow multiple people to access the data at the same time. Through the TOS application, TerraMaster NAS can easily manage files, videos, etc.

3.Data security comparison

Most people will store the data that needs to be backed up in a mobile hard drive, but they ignore the concept of multiple backups. If any hard disk is damaged or lost, the data will not be recovery, so this storage method is not safe. But NAS storage does not have the risk of data loss. NAS system can support RAID backup function, you can build RAID according to your own needs, even if one of the hard drives in the system is broken, the data will still exists.

4.Cross-platform access

NAS is not just a simple server and network shared hard disk, but a convenient device beyond storage. It can make data organization more automated, and you can open and close your private cloud as you like, without being restricted by free space regulations. Users can remotely access NAS devices at home through smart phones, tablets, PCs and other devices to obtain the information they need.

NAS is not only a storage function, but also can watch movies, download videos, listen to music, and so on. The hard disk has its convenience, but in this era of mobile Internet, its activity level has gradually decreased. For convenient, fast and safe data access and backup, NAS is the best choice.
