Explanation
A NAS (Network Attached Storage) device is purpose-built for file sharing over a network and typically supports RAID configurations (including RAID 1 for mirroring/redundancy) at a fraction of the cost of a full server. It requires minimal administration and no server OS license. An IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) is a security device, an Access Point provides wireless connectivity, and a SAN (Storage Area Network) is an enterprise-grade block-level storage solution that is significantly more expensive and complex than what a small office needs.
