About this product
The ioSafe 214 NAS is a robust, 2-bay network-attached storage solution, pre-configured with 16TB capacity from two 8TB 7200RPM hard drives. It features both fireproof and waterproof protection for enhanced data security. This external drive is compatible with Synology DSM, offering various features like cloud storage, secure encryption, remote access, and an in-built media server. Connectivity includes USB 3.0 and SATA II via Ethernet, making it a comprehensive and durable data storage hub.
Our take
This ioSafe 214 NAS really stands out with its integrated fireproof and waterproof capabilities, which is a major advantage for critical data storage. The 16TB capacity across two 8TB 7200RPM drives provides ample space and good performance for a network setup. Compatibility with Synology DSM is excellent, opening up a world of features like cloud storage and media server functions. However, the price point is quite high, reflecting its specialized ruggedness. While it offers USB 3.0 and Ethernet, the SATA II interface for the internal drives isn't the absolute latest, but for a NAS focused on data protection, it's still very functional.
