Especially Network drive or NAS systems are used to store large amounts of data. The risk of data loss, but also lurks here. In particular, small and medium-sized companies are increasingly relying on NAS systems (Network Attached Storage). After all, they offer good value for money and rapid data access. Further, the administration is comparatively low. But also on NAS systems can be a risk of data loss not eliminates them entirely. This risk can be minimized, however by backing up data in secure place.
Following tips would be useful for this:
Even at NAS data recovery is expensive. Thus, one should not also save on the purchase of hard drives for the RAID system. "In the best case, administrators choose hard drives with an approval for the 24-hour continuous operation, a large cache and fast access times," recommends a data recovery expert. Similarly, companies should plan security solutions such as virus scanners and firewalls in the budget in order to protect stored data from threats from the Internet.
Regardless of their size, companies should at least set up a RAID5. The hardware costs are negligible, especially when you convert the value to the information and the damage from data loss
According to the data recovery specialists you should put on hard drives from different production batches. This allows the risk of errors or production-related vulnerabilities and minimizes downtime. In addition, decreases the risk that hard drives fail within a short time in a chain reaction.
