Although both NetDisk and NAS are storage devices that are implemented over a network, NetDisk
takes up less space than NAS or SAN products. NetDisk utilizes NDAS technology - allowing it to
connect the hard disk directly to a network without a server. In NAS, the hard disk must be con-
nected to a storage server, which must also be connected to the network.
