Netgear NAS

About NETGEAR

Founded in 1996, NETGEAR has consistently made their presence known in the technology industry as a company bringing the newest innovations in networking solutions to consumers, with a special focusing on small businesses and personal use.  Headquartered in California, NETGEAR also has local offices in about twenty other nations.

Though NETGEAR might be a bit better known for its lines of routers, switches, and firewalls, they incorporate virtually any networking product they can into their lineup, and network attached storage devices are no exception.  Fortunately, like with most of their products, their NAS products are top of the line, offering speed, flexibility, and simplicity in compact packages.  Though their products often cost a little more, customers know that they're buying a solid product from an established source.

One unusual feature that NETGEAR offers is that many of their products are often shipped with hard drives already included within the NAS itself.  While installing a drive into a NAS is already simple practically by definition, this further streamlines the NAS acquisition process as the consumer isn't required to provide their own drive, instead simply ordering the entire product from a single source.
