What is a NAS?​

NAS = Network Attatched Storage.
A NAS is a device that provides users with a networked location to store their data, and are designed to be equipped for use at home or for businesses (or other applications).
But a Synology NAS has even more to offer, as they are designed to offer private cloud storage, backup systems, and secure file sharing.

The DiskStation Manager 7.0​

The DiskStation Manager is the operating system for Synology NAS systems, it was designed with focus on reliability and impressive performance, and offers users a wide range of data management features.​

• Easily create storage pools, and use visualised connections between storage pools, volumes, and SSD caches, to help resolve any issues your setup may face.
• SSD Cache - With its safe and versatile SSD cache (with lower degradation risks, thanks to high cache write-back speeds), the DiskStation manager offers a place to store Btrfs metadata, that helps to speed up file access and search.
• Advanced Drive Replacement - Drives can be automatically replaced once it reaches critical or failing status. Users can easily switch to a cloned drive after manual replacement, without the worry of degrading the storage pool.
• Active Insight - Allows users to manage their NAS across a range of locations, with performance monitoring and an automated warning system.
• Centralized Monitoring - Offers the ability for users to view system health indicators, for all devices under their Synology account. So, management of your data storage system, or security setup, can be made easy to maintain.
• Delegate Admin Tasks - A must have for business users. With admin role delegation, system administrators can delegate pre-configured roles to other users, and reduce their management workload.

Users can also feel secure when using their Synology NAS, as the DiskStation Manager offers Secure Sign-in, with app-based login approval, hardware security keys, and 2-factor authentication options. Keep your data, and your data management, as secure as possible.
