How to use

Install compatible 2.5" or 3.5" HDDs or SSDs into the two drive bays following the manufacturer’s instructions. Connect the NAS to your local network via Ethernet and power it on. Use QNAP’s QTS or QuTS hero management interface to perform initial setup: create storage pools or volumes, configure shared folders and set up user accounts and permissions. Enable network services needed for your use cases, such as SMB/CIFS for Windows file sharing, NFS for Unix systems, or DLNA/UPnP for media streaming. Configure scheduled backups, snapshot policies or RAID-like redundancy according to your data protection needs.

Recommendations

Place the NAS on a stable, well-ventilated surface away from direct heat sources. Use drives recommended by QNAP for compatibility, and keep the device firmware and applications updated. For critical data, implement a backup strategy that includes offsite or cloud backups in addition to local redundancy.
