purchasing a NAS will not only change the way you store files, but also your life. for those not aware, a network attached storage is a device that houses hard drives. it can be easily accessed if you're on the same network and in some cases even remotely.
personally i love my NAS. it's called the bananastand, fans of Arrested Development will be elated, and i use it to archive video projects, music libraries, and family photos.
i feel like for any creatives such as photographers, videographers, or really anyone with a plethora of files to manage, the solution is network attached storage.
it also doesn't have to be an expensive purchase! chances are you have unused tech sitting around and whether it's an old laptop or discarded drives, there's a tutorial out there that can help you set up your own NAS.
