QNAP NAS Setup Guide: Based on QTS 4.1

Contenuto dell'eBook:

An independent guide for home and small business users.

With superb functionality and ease of use through the acclaimed QTS operating system, QNAP Turbo NAS is a popular choice when buying Network Attached Storage. Whether it is the storage and sharing of information, the streaming of photos, music and video to computers and smart devices, or the ability to have a private cloud that allows access to information from anywhere, the Turbo NAS can do it all with aplomb. But this power and flexibility comes at a price: setting up a Turbo NAS for the very first time can seem a daunting prospect for someone who has not done so before.

This guide, based around the latest version of QTS and with copious illustrations and easy-to-follow instructions, will take you through it from start to finish and help ensure that your home or small business network is a success. It is written according to the Goldilocks Principle: not too little information, not too much information, but just the right amount.
