A consumer network attached storage (NAS) refers to a device which is connected to a network for retrieval of data from the central location to the computer systems. It allows continual access to data and gives networks a single access point for storage with built-in security, management and fault-tolerant capabilities. It relies on hardware, software and file-based protocols, such as Network File System (NFS) or Common Internet File System (CIFS). At present, it is widely utilized to enable home theater systems worldwide. It also functions as a file server with remote access to multiple personal computers (PCs) and media players.
Consumer NAS devices enable simple and low-cost systems, such as load-balancing and fault-tolerant email and web servers. Consequently, they are gaining traction for providing centralized storage to computers with large amounts of data. They also function as a print and media server, temporary storage, and backup and archive systems for Internet downloads or video-on-demand (VOD). Moreover, these devices can be combined with the storage area network (SAN) to act as a translator between the file-level and block-level protocols. Additionally, as consumer NAS devices are flexible, their demand is escalating worldwide. With a significant rise in the shift towards data-centric models, the global consumer NAS market growth is further bolstering. Apart from this, rapid modernization, inflating disposable incomes and the emerging trend of connected homes are some of the other factors anticipated to impel the market growth in the coming years.
