Network Attached Storage (NAS) is a dedicated file storage device that provides local area network (LAN) users with centralized, shared storage through standard Ethernet connections. NAS systems are scalable, easy to deploy, and increasingly integrated with cloud and AI technologies. They serve a wide range of end users—from small businesses and enterprises to data centers—enabling seamless file sharing, data backup, and disaster recovery.

The global network attached storage market was valued at USD 22.09 Billion in 2023 and grew at a CAGR of 25.99% from 2024 to 2033. The market is expected to reach USD 138.03 Billion by 2033.
