What is NAS (Network Attached Storage)?

NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices are specialised hard drives that connect directly to your home or office network. Unlike USB or Thunderbolt external drives, a NAS does not need to be plugged into a single Mac or PC. Instead, it is typically connected to a network switch or router, making it accessible to every computer and device on the same network.

A NAS offers the additional benefit of remote access. When properly configured, it can act as your own private cloud, allowing you to access important files, photos, or business data from any location with a reliable internet connection. For many businesses, a NAS functions like a private Dropbox or Google Drive but with the advantage of keeping data under your control.

Why NAS Drives Are Different From External Hard Drives

Most NAS units are designed with multiple drives configured in RAID arrays (Redundant Array of Independent Disks). RAID technology increases performance, combines multiple disks into one logical storage pool, and provides redundancy in case of disk failure.

  • RAID 0 – High speed, no redundancy.
  • RAID 1 – Mirrored drives for maximum safety.
  • RAID 5 & RAID 6 – Balanced performance with redundancy.

These RAID configurations, combined with file systems such as EXT4, Btrfs, or XFS, make NAS devices more complex than ordinary external drives. If a failure occurs, specialised knowledge is required to rebuild arrays and restore access.

Common NAS Data Loss Scenarios

  • One or more RAID drives fail or degrade.
  • Power surges or overheating damage the system.
  • Firmware corruption prevents the NAS from booting.
  • Accidental deletion, formatting, or file system corruption.
  • The NAS enclosure becomes unresponsive or stuck in a boot loop.

Important: DIY recovery attempts or using the wrong RAID rebuild software can make matters worse. That’s why working with an experienced data recovery company is essential.
