Getting to Know Your NSA
1.1 NSA-2401 Overview
The NSA (Network Storage Appliance) allows secure storage and management of data on
your network. Windows, Apple, or Linux users can access data on it as if it was on their own
computers. The NSA’s two Gigabit Ethernet ports can connect to two different LANs. Users
on either LAN (or connected through the Internet) can back up and share data on the NSA.
Two USB ports let you share USB printers and use external USB hard drives for extra storage
space.

• The NSA’s SATA II (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) hard disk serial links are
compatible with all major hard drive manufacturers.
• RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) protects your data even if a hard disk fails.
• The snapshot and backup features let you further protect your data.
• The NSA offers powerful security features. Use HTTPS or FTPES for secure file
transfers. Create encrypted volumes so an attacker who removes the physical drive still
cannot read the data. The NSA can also record all user access to files and folders.
