Software

U-NAS system 3.1.1.  It is based on the Debian distribution 8, I think.

This system has a Web interface. Most of the time, I managed it through the web interface.

As a NAS system, RAID is very important.  U-NAS supports LVM + RAID 0/1/5/6/10.

But, I am not using any RAID. I just use the plain folder share function, BT download, FTP, etc.

Most of the time I used it as storage with other backup methods. It means, either I have a copy of these files in U-NAS, or it can be download from somewhere on the Internet.
