The Ready NAS Duo also comes with built in backup tools or use the included NTI back up software to simplify your backups.  It even has a one touch backup button to backup from one of the 3 USB ports.  Don’t be caught not backing up your precious photos and videos.  This software and device make it very simple.  You can even back up to/from USB/CIFS/NFS/FTP/HTTP. 

Add more storage whenever you like.  The storage in this device is hot swappable, so you can even add more storage while it’s still turned on.  If you have filled the 2 drive bays, you can add external storage to one of the 3 USB ports.

Whisper Quiet.  Keep it in the study or even bedroom without disturbance.

Features Highlight:

·  Provides extra storage that can be conveniently shared with all your computers
The ReadyNAS Duo is perfect for homes with more than one computer. Unlike a USB drive, the ReadyNAS connects to the network and is simultaneously accessible via all connected Windows or Macintosh computers.

· Access stored content anywhere via the Internet
If there is a broadband Internet connection and a home router, the ReadyNAS can be set up to provide secure access to all the stored files remotely via the Internet.

·  Optional “spare” hard drive protects against drive failure by making a duplicate copy of all your data
For added protection of stored data, an optional second hard disk drive can be installed. If you choose, the spare hard drive will keep an extra copy of all the data and instantly take over if the first hard drive should fail.

·  Supports most network music, picture and video players
Advanced media streaming support allows the ReadyNAS to directly serve media, with no PC required, to devices such as the NETGEAR EVA8000, Sonos® Digital Music System, Logitech Squeezebox™, Apple iTunes® clients, Sony Playstation® 3 and Microsoft Xbox 360®.

· Embedded BitTorrent™ client for direct downloading from the Internet
Officially licensed BitTorrent client allows downloading to occur without the need for an additional computer. A Web-based interface facilitates download management from computers, and a special NETGEAR Digital Entertainer interface allows management from the EVA8000(also available at Broadband Gear).
