The Seagate NAS is a hard drive enclosure available in two models.
Each individual hard drive is swappable and field replaceable. When installing hard drives into the Seagate NAS, make certain they are 3.0 Gb/s SATA that spin up to 7,200 RPM. Seagate recommends NAS HDD.
Note: Your Seagate NAS is shipped with screws to mount 2.5-inch hard drives to the hard drive trays.
The Seagate NAS runs on Seagate NAS OS. Use the NAS OS administration tool to create volumes, shares, users, groups, and much more. See Software.
