After connecting an external optical drive (CD, DVD, Blu-ray) to your NAS via USB, you can use File Explorer to directly access any
files that you have backed up to optical media and even transfer files from your optical media to your NAS via drag and drop for
future access.
Note:
This function only provides data access and does not support the audio and video playback of optical media.
Certain optical drives will require additional power in order to operate properly. If you find that your optical drive is not spinning
or reading correctly, please use a USB Y-cable to add additional power.

time you need to install some software? ASUSTOR NAS
supports the mounting of ISO files which provides you

Folder-based AES 256-bit Encryption
Your most important data deserves the best security. ASUSTOR
NAS offers folder based military grade AES 256-bit encryption,
giving you the type of security and privacy that you require
for your most confidential data. All data stored in encrypted
folders will be automatically encrypted and secured to the
highest of standards. Should you ever lose your NAS or hard
disks, you still needn't worry about your sensitive data falling
into the wrong hands.
Unlike other NAS devices, ASUSTOR NAS gives you the
flexibility to select the individual folders that you want to
encrypt. Other NAS devices encrypt entire storage volumes
which significantly slows down the system. Any encrypted
portions of storage volumes will be subject to a decrease in
performance. However, with ASUSTOR NAS you are free to
encrypt only your most confidential data while leaving other
data unencrypted, creating a perfect balance between
performance and security.

importance to small and medium businesses.

shared storage is a must for virtual environments. iSCSI and
NFS support on the ASUSTOR NAS allows you to seamlessly
