A complete network storage solution & private cloud for power users & businesses with up to 25 employees Seagate NAS 2-bay is a full-featured network storage solution offering the easiest setup & the industry’s most intuitive interface. The NAS 2-bay features hardware, software & Seagate drives designed to work together seamlessly, which reduces your setup time to just a few minutes & delivers reliable performance for years to come. In addition, Seagate runs hours of extensive tests on every NAS 2-bay before it leaves our manufacturing facility, to further ensure the system is running at its best. The NAS 2-bay runs Seagate NAS OS 4 software, completely designed from the ground up to deliver ease of use, performance, reliability & a flexible platform for running add-on apps, enabling you to do more with your NAS. With the App Manager in NAS OS 4, you can choose to install apps that enhance the functionality of the NAS, such as our surveillance app that turns the NAS into a recording solution for IP cameras or our anti-virus app that can scan files & identify potential threats before it’s too late. Drives are the core of any high-capacity storage solution & Seagate delivers a specialised drive specifically for NAS systems. Seagate NAS HDD drives, included with the NAS 2-bay, are engineered to run 24x 7 to deliver the performance needed by various business applications, yet run cooler than other drives on the market. Furthermore, NAS HDD drives are rated for higher reliability than a standard desktop drive, offering more protection for your business’s critical files. The storage volume on the NAS 2-bay is preconfigured, which can save you hours of setup time compared to traditional RAID configurations.1 If you choose to purchase our diskless model or want to change the default configuration, we offer Simply RAID™ technology to speed up & simplify that process too. Simply RAID technology, built into the NAS OS software, will help you choose the RAID configuration that is best for your business by balancing performance, capacity & redundancy. Another benefit from our Simply RAID technology is the ability to begin storing files & using the NAS instantly after choosing your preferred configuration. No more waiting hours or days for the RAID volume to build!
