Development of Custom-Built Network Attached Storage (NAS) System

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: With the rapid expansion of digital data, the need for efficient, secure, and cost-effective storage solutions has increased significantly. Network-Attached Storage (NAS) systems have emerged as a viable alternative to cloud-based storage, offering users full control over their data while ensuring high-speed local access. However, traditional NAS systems face several challenges, including security vulnerabilities, high costs, and complex configurations. This research presents a customized NAS solution that integrates remote access, automated backup, lightweight web hosting, and real-time system monitoring to overcome these limitations. Performance evaluations demonstrate the system’s efficiency in terms of data transfer speed, security, and accessibility. The proposed solution provides an affordable and scalable alternative for individuals and small businesses seeking secure, self-hosted storage with cloud-like features.
