  1. Do you need a NAS or DAS ? What is the difference anyways? Why not get both by using a Thunderbolt 3 or USB C to 10GB ! Let PrimeArray explain A thunderbolt 3 connection can rock the speedometer to 40Gbps! In the storage world you may commonly hear the term NAS or DAS. These terms are simple reference to - network attached storage or direct attached storage. The “NAS” storage relies on your network, switches, and routers allows more devices to access the storage. The direct attached storage method is usually one cable from your device to the storage array. There are pluses and minuses to both options some of the big ones include “NAS” is more accessible to many devices. “DAS” storage can offer an extremely fast transfer rate from one device to the storage array. With enhancements in technology you can convert your NAS storage device into dual-purpose DAS / NAS. An easy to install USB C or thunderbolt 3 to 10G can connect a NAS to one host for extreme performance to the storage and allow the NAS server to still share its contents over your network to the user’s. This could be incredibly useful in a high definition video / 4k video server or performance demanding application. One workstation could populate the storage through the thunderbolt 3 or USB C connection allowing the users to access it through the LAN. 1500 Distrcit Ave ∙ Burlington , MA ∙ 01803 978-455-9488 ▪ 800-433-5133 ▪ Fax: 978-381-2600 ▪ sales@primearray.com ▪ www.primearray.com

  3. What Are NAS Servers? Network accessed storage (NAS) refers to a self-contained storage system that’s attached to a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN). All devices connected to the network can be granted access by the network administrator to the data stored on the NAS system. It comprises portable NAS servers and network management software that permits different users to log in to the storage system. Pros of NAS Servers Advantages you get with NAS servers: •Centralized file storage and access •More efficient use of data storage resources •Easy data recovery •Easy scalability •Better data redundancy •Save space due to their compact nature •Affordable high-capacity storage solution DAS Servers vs. NAS Servers The main difference between DAS and NAS servers is that DAS servers are a more localized storage solution. As such, they don’t offer you the flexibility of file sharing and remote updating that NAS servers offer you. When you need more storage, NAS beats DAS because you can easily add another portable NAS storage device to your network as your data storage needs grow.
