NAS in the Home Environment
Speaker: Bill Van Dijk (OPCUG)
A Network Attached Storage (NAS) system is typically a small file server, running on a local area network (LAN), providing access to shared documents, photos, videos, and streaming services for several connected devices. In this presentation, Bill Van Dijk will provide an overview of setting up a NAS unit in the home environment and describe some of the different capabilities that make such systems attractive for regular computer users.
Bill is a long-time member of the OPCUG, starting back in the mid-80s, and served for a couple of years as the club’s Finance Director. Bill’s background is mostly in the mechanical field but with a very strong interest in electronics. He was the Year 2000 project manager for the City of Kanata during the Y2K period, and subsequently worked as project manager for fleet services at the City of Ottawa.
