Network-attached storage (NAS) is a file-level computer data storage server connected to a computer network providing data access to a heterogeneous group of clients.

NAS is specialized for serving files either by its hardware, software, or configuration.

It is often manufactured as a computer appliance – a purpose-built specialized computer.

NAS systems are networked appliances which contain one or more storage drives, often arranged into logical, redundant storage containers or RAID.

rsync is a utility for efficiently transferring and synchronizing files across computer systems.

It is commonly found on Unix-like systems and functions as both a file synchronization and file transfer program.

The rsync algorithm is a type of delta encoding, and is used for minimizing network usage.

Zlib may be used for additional compression, and SSH or stunnel can be used for data security.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a set of networking protocols that permits networked devices, such as personal computers, printers, Internet gateways, Wi-Fi access points and mobile devices to seamlessly discover each other's presence on the network and establish functional network services for data sharing, communications, and entertainment.

UPnP is intended primarily for residential networks without enterprise-class devices.

OpenMediaVault (OMV) is a free Linux distribution designed for network-attached storage (NAS).

The project's lead developer is Volker Theile, who instituted it in 2009.

OMV is based on the Debian operating system, and is licensed through the GNU General Public License v3.

The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used for the transfer of computer files from a server to a client using the Client–server model on a computer network.
