A Comprehensive Independent Guide for Home and Small Business Users
For QTS 5.2 & QuTS hero h5.2, Updated for 2026.
'You need this book - the NAS is not supplied with an instruction manual.'
With superb functionality and ease of use through the acclaimed QTS & QuTS hero operating systems, QNAP is a popular choice when buying Network Attached Storage. Whether it is the storage and sharing of information, streaming photos, music and video to computers and smart devices, perhaps using something like Plex, or the ability to have a private cloud that allows access to information from anywhere, a QNAP NAS can do it all. But this power and flexibility comes at a price and correctly setting up a QNAP NAS can seem a daunting prospect for someone who has not done so before. This guide, based around the latest versions of QTS & QuTS hero and including the multimedia, cloud, backup and many other features, covers using it with Windows PCs, Macs, Linux PCs, Chromebooks and portable devices. It has easy-to-follow real world examples, with over 370 illustrations and screenshots, and will take you through it from start to finish and help ensure that your home or small business network is a success. It is written according to the Goldilocks Principle: not too little information, not too much information, but just the right amount.
