An easy-to-use, all-in-one backup solution
The TS-262 can do many things, but at its heart is a complete backup solution to protect your files and data. By regularly backing up your files and device content, you can make data loss a thing of the past. QNAP provides snapshots – an advanced backup method – which work by recording the current state of the system, allowing it to be restored back this state at any time - greatly helping in mitigating the threat of ransomware.
