Designed for the sophisticated tech consumer and the small office-home office (SoHo) user, LG’s CES Innovations Award-winning NAS device combines a secure storage option for large amounts of data with the capability to read and write in high definition.

“Safe and secure storage of digital content is a top priority for techies and SoHo users alike,” said Peter Reiner, senior vice president, marketing and strategy, LG Electronics North America. “LG’s NAS device is the perfect complement to our award-winning optical disc drive line as it not only provides data security but also offers large storage capacity and gives users the flexibility to read and write Blu-ray.”

Smart Data Management
The world’s first Network Attached Storage device with a built-in Blu-ray drive (model N4B1) attaches to a network instead of PC to enable efficient and secure data storage. Its capacity can be expanded by a four-bay storage configuration to a maximum of 4TB. To facilitate easier archiving, the N4B1 automatically creates a content catalog when data is saved to the Blu-ray disc. Additionally, the management system automatically tracks what is downloaded, saving business owners and consumers’ time and space by not duplicating files. Additional features include:

  • Compatibility with Windows, Linux and Mac operating systems allows users on different operating systems to share and store data
  • Compatibility with all current types of CD, DVD and BD media up to 50GB
  • Auto Disc Back-up: Updates data and manages disc lists
  • Virtual Disc Library: Allows a single disc to be shared among many users
  • Auto Sync: Automatically updates PC activity and backs up selected data while creating a catalogue on Blu-Ray media
  • RAID 5: Robust hot-swap mechanism & RAID migration supported to protect against data loss
  • Memory card reader
  • Ability to stream content to Blu-ray players
  • Gigabit Ethernet Connection
  • Three USB 2.0 connections
