See The Detail02/18/2016 - ThecusOS 7.0 provides a new, intuitive operating system that provides a comprehensive set of utilities that offers an unrivaled user experience.The latest ThecusOS brings many changes to Thecus NAS user´s experience and one of the most attractive ones is Photo Center.
Photo Center is an in-house developed app by Thecus Technology Corp. This intuitive module allows users to create a unique photo gallery to share files with friends and family. Photo Center is also a convenient tool to backup all your precious moments in a secure, central location that can be accessed anywhere, anytime.
How to use it?
Getting started with Photo Center is very simple. To begin, the Thecus NAS administrator has to create one or more user accounts (the admin can not use Photo Center). Once a new session is begun on the OS, the user can simply click on the Photo Center icon located in the upper left side of the main page.
Once the app is opened, user can name and create new albums and select photos that they would like to have uploaded into the albums.
Now the new album is done.
Finally, users can easily share albums or single pictures with friends and family through a link or QR code. Simply select the album or picture and click “Share” and “Generate link or QR code.” Users can send the generated link or QR code and the receiver can use it to download the album/picture. For security, these can be password protected to ensure piece of mind. Securely sharing pictures, has never been made easier.
NAS solutions offer a host of features to ensure data security from both internal and external threats.

See The Detail02/26/2016 – More and more home users, if not talking about businesses, consider purchasing a NAS solution. NAS is becoming an integral part of business and gradually a part of home environments. However, we often hear a lot of questions about security of information transmitted via NAS and stored on NAS servers. People, became used to computer systems, yet still have this paradigm in mind, that their data is not fully protected and can be viewed and accessed by others any time.
However while it is true for computer systems, it is not true for NAS solutions which are much more advanced in every single aspect including data security.
NAS manufacturers totally understand the importance of data security and the fact that data protection for business is often a life-or-death situation, so they deploy lots of mechanisms which automatically protect data and different tools of data access management.
First, all the data transmissions are encrypted. So the data is fully protected if it is transmitted via Internet. Moreover, NAS can perform as a VPN server, and also have access to the data on the server, which can be done remotely from any device via a VPN channel which is absolutely safe.
Second, RAID volumes are protected too, nobody can have access to them or change anything unless he has an encryption key. It is impossible to break this security level.The same as RAID volumes, certain folders can be encrypted to protect the data in them from any access.
When we talk about “cloud” and NAS, we mean “personal cloud”, it means the data is really stored on one`s NAS, not on a third party`s server or virtual server as it happens in case of “public cloud”. It means an absolute privacy and protection of the information stored.
Another security mechanism is the access roles management tool, which is implemented in the software. The administrator of NAS easily and quickly sets up access roles for NAS users, depending on their right to see and use different kinds of information. This mechanism helps to define the access level for each user and control them.
Moreover NAS software allows users to define the IPs which will be blocked from accessing the NAS or to set-up criteria on which the system would block certain IPs.
There is also a multi-level system of account security and verification as well as notification of any suspicious actions, so that NAS owners stay alert.
To protect the data against viruses, different anti-virus software are provided in the package together with NAS.Thecus Technology Corp. provides a comprehensive Intel security package with their NAS solutions which is an advanced software effectively protecting NAS against all possible threads.
In the recently released new software version OS 7.0 Thecus Technology Corp. took a step forward in the level of data security in their new Photo Center - an in-house design app for management and storage of photos: when sharing photos with friends, users send generated links or QR codes which receivers use to download the album/pictures, and to ensure the ultimate security level, these can be password-protected to ensure peace of mind.
Extending the life of a business’ storage solution

See The DetailUsing two Ethernet ports for double the security, double the speed.
2016-03-16
See The Detail03/16/2016 - Do you have a fast local network and a modern NAS like the Thecus N2810 or the N5810(PRO)? Then you may want to consider utilizing “Link Aggregation”, one of the many features these devices offer. By deploying multiple Ethernet ports on the NAS with a switch or router, you can increase data security and maximize the performance of the NAS.
Thecus NAS give you a choice of different modes of link aggregation. For example, you can configure it to have the network traffic balanced across both ports (load balancing) or have one as the primary Ethernet port and the other one serve as a backup (failover). Even a combination is possible. Both network ports are used but the second one can finish the data transfer in case the first one suddenly and unexpectedly fails (broadcast).
Most modern NAS from Thecus currently support link aggregation, for example the brand new N2810. Also last year's N5810 and N5810PRO provide this feature. So this important feature is not restricted to just the absolute high-end models anymore.
By the way, the Thecus NAS with Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 Essentials like the W5810 provide link aggregation, too, just under a different name. Microsoft calls this feature “NIC-Teaming”.

With the ability to act as an all-in-one device in a home setting, NAS are quickly replacing the cluttered devices that act as a home multimedia center.
2016-01-20
See The Detail01/20/2016 - Thecus has been a leader in the data storage industry for quite a while, and has gained reputation as a trustworthy provider of reliable solutions for government authorities, big corporations and scientific research institutions. Beyond just industrial solutions, the company has made a lot of development towards the home/SOHO user segment as well.
It is no secret that home multimedia centers are becoming an essential attribute of every home.
Why is that? Multimedia centers are not only entertainment tool, but also a method of education, communication and even for conducting business. Home multimedia centers generally consist of a router, a NAS/multimedia player/PC desktop and a TV screen. These are the essential parts of any multimedia system. Long ago the majority considered PC Desktops as the main component of a multimedia center around which the whole system could be built.
The current trend is to make any device at home act as multifunctional as possible as nobody wants their home to be cluttered with various devices, remote controls, cables and so on. Another strong concept is communication between all the devices at one`s home, so that the content can be displayed on screens in different rooms, files can be downloaded from a computer in one room while video is being played on the screen in another room, and there will be no necessity to move the devices around or change the cables. Multimedia centers that meet these critical requirements is a truly modern solution. That is why nowadays NAS is taking a major role in home multimedia centers, leaving far behind the usual desktop and out-performing multimedia-players.
The main basic requirements of every end-user for their home multimedia center can be described as the following:
1. Silent operation
2. Torrent client to download the content 24/7
3. Unlimited storage space allowing to create a huge multimedia library
4. Data safety
5. Access to the library from any device in any part of the world
6. No limitations for the formats of the files and content
It is very clear that basic desktops cannot meet these requirements. As for a multimedia player, it cannot fulfill one of the most critical tasks – unlimited storage space. Most multimedia-players have only one HDD bay and no possibility to upgrade. Neither can multimedia players ensure the safety of the stored multimedia content, because one HDD offers no other mechanisms to back up data. Multimedia players are commonly noisy and often times can work with only one TV screen. This means they need to be moved around in a situation where a user wants to watch his favorite movie but in another room using a different TV screen. There is one way out this – a media-streamer, but it means additional costs and one more device whiles still providing no solution for storage space and content back-up.
NAS solutions look like an optimal choice. They are multifunctional; performing the tasks of not only a multimedia-player directly connected to a TV screen via HDMI, but also act as a storage server providing unlimited possibilities for data storage and safety. It can be easily connected into your local network via Ethernet and can communicate with all other devices efficiently. There is no need to move the devices around home, all the content can be viewed and streamed on any screen no matter where it is located in the living room or bedroom or kitchen, the library can be accessed from any device everywhere, and “everywhere” means not only all around the house but all around the world where there is internet connection. And of course, we should mention the silent operation and energy efficiency of Thecus NAS solutions. This allows for 24/7 power and downloading meaning you can keep things up and running at all times. With the recent release of the N2810, consumers are given an ideal solution that even offers 4K playback for a truly modern multimedia experience
