The new Seagate Business Storage provides a secure cost-effective solution for business collaboration and backup protection and can work well with existing cloud backup and online sharing services. It is designed to backup all PC and Mac computers in an organization to a single centralized location and includes backup software for Windows PCs. The NAS is also compatible with Time Machine for Mac OSX computers.
Seagate Business Storage is more or less a private cloud with the ability to reside in a single office location. It is also capable of providing access through both Android and iOS applications as well as a secure networked connection from any notebook. For users with important files that need increased protection, Seagate’s new NAS also provides hardware encryption for specified files.
The 2 and 4 bay versions of Seagate Business Storage provides redundant backups of the information stored on the device. Additionally, its Universal Storage Module slot allows for plug-n-play removable external drives to be input and removed from the device, resulting in improved workflow and offsite backup capability.
