- Network-attached storage A new data-centric storage architecture that offloads file sharing from application servers and relocates the storage onto its own independent platform The resulting consolidation of storage resources provides simplified management and scalability
Network Access Server A Cisco platform or collection of platforms, such as, an AccessPath system which interfaces between the packet world (for example, the Internet) and the circuit world (for example, the PSTN)
A network-attached storage (NAS) device is a server that is dedicated to nothing more than file sharing NAS does not provide any of the activities that a server in a server-centric system typically provides, such as e-mail, authentication or file management NAS allows more hard disk storage space to be added to a network that already utilizes servers without shutting them down for maintenance and upgrades With a NAS device, storage is not an integral part of the server Instead, in this storage-centric design, the server still handles all of the processing of data but a NAS device delivers the data to the user A NAS device does not need to be located within the server but can exist anywhere in a LAN and can be made up of multiple networked NAS devices

NAS stands for Network Access Server It is a computer or a special device designed to provide access to the network For example, it can be a computer connected to the network and equipped with several modems Such NAS would allow the user connecting to one of its modems to access the network
Network Attached Storage Portable devices containing storage space (like a disk drive) or stand alone self-contained devices that attach directly to your network This storage space can be shared by all of the computers on a network
