The simple one-click restore function will restore selected files to their original directory path while conveniently maintaining all properties and permissions settings.

Enhanced Recycle Bin mechanism

Ultimate data protection

ASUSTOR NAS makes use of RAID storage technology to provide protection for your data. RAID mainly revolves around the core concept of combining your disks to protect the data inside. ASUSTOR offers a number of different RAID level configurations that you can choose from when creating storage volumes. Each RAID level offers a differing degree of data protection, system performance and storage space. ASUSTOR's supported RAID levels are summarized in the chart below:

RAID Level Single JBOD RAID 0 RAID 1 RAID 5 RAID 6 RAID 10
Minimum number of disks 1 2 2 2 3 4 4
Faulty Disks Tolerated X X X 1 1 2 1
Increased System performance X X V X V V V
Maximum use of Storage space V V V X X X X

Not enough storage space?

Insufficient storage space forcing you to consider upgrading your NAS to one with more disk bays?

ASUSTOR NAS supports online capacity expansion1 which means that you can easily swap out all your old disks for higher capacity ones without turning off your NAS. Now you can increase the storage capacity of your NAS without worrying about getting an entire new system.

1 You must use RAID 1, 5, 6, or 10

Not enough storage space?

Uninterrupted access

During the capacity expansion process, while your data is being transferred over to the new disks, you will still be able to access everything on the NAS. Online capacity expansion does not require any advanced IT skills to execute and helps you to eliminate cumbersome backup and migration procedures. When it's time to upgrade your NAS's capacity, ASUSTOR simply gets the job done for you without missing a beat.

Uninterrupted access

The ultimate tool for remote backup

Rsync is an application originally developed for UNIX that is usually used for backup and sync between two computers. By providing block level replication, Rsync is able to offer incremental backup. Incremental backup allows for successive backup jobs (after your first backup job) to only copy data that has changed since your last backup job. Rsync is suitable for use with files and data that are always changing. It lets you cut down on backup time while significantly reducing bandwidth usage.

The ultimate tool for remote backup
