NetGear Launches Two New Network Storage Devices In India

These Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices by NetGear are clearly aimed at media enthusiasts, photo hobbyists, and home power users with lots of HD multimedia files to store and retrieve.

 

NetGear has recently announced the launch of ReadyNAS 210 Series of world-class Network Attached Storage devices (NAS) for home and home office networks with new two and four-bay models in India.

Based on a quad-core 1.4GHz ARM Cortex processor, ReadyNAS 212 (RN212) and ReadyNAS 214 (RN214) are capable of delivering real-time 1080p HD video transcoding so you can view your HD content on any screen, anywhere at home and over the Internet.

The company seems to be touting about ReadyNAS 212 and 214 being the first ARM-based designs to deliver that capability in a cost-effective storage solution.

Both ReadyNAS 212 and 214 offer a combination of real-time 1080p HD streaming and transcoding (MPEG4, H.264 and other popular CODECs), wire-speed anti-virus scanning with near-zero loss of throughput, and up to double the throughput with dual Ethernet interfaces in Link Aggregation mode. With these two new models, NetGear is clearly aiming at media enthusiasts, photo hobbyists, and home power users with lots of HD multimedia files to store and retrieve.

Both these device are capable of delivering up to 200MBps/read (megabytes per second) and 160MBps/write throughput.

As more 802.11ac WiFi devices are connected to the home network, the one gigabit-per-second speed of an Ethernet port has increasingly become a bottleneck. ReadyNAS 212 and 214 offer you the option of connecting the second Ethernet port on your ReadyNAS in a Link Aggregation mode with a NetGear Nighthawk X8 AC5300 Smart WiFi Router (R8500), or NetGear ProSAFE Gigabit Smart Switch, or an IEEE 802.3ad compliant network device. This “port trunking” capability means that ReadyNAS 212 and 214 can deliver up to twice the throughput compared to a single Ethernet cable connection.

Subhodeep Bhattacharya, Regional Director – India and SAARC, NetGear said, “NetGear ReadyNAS is the undisputed choice in storage for streaming, transcoding video, and protecting your data. If you are serious about storing, streaming and sharing HD multimedia content, then ReadyNAS 212 and 214 offers you the most cost-effective storage option in the market today”. Further, he added, “whether your priority is speed, data protection, or ease of use, there’s just not another NAS that offers this price / performance combination”.

With ReadyNAS 212 and 214, you can build your personal cloud for easily accessing and sharing your precious personal files from any device in your home or remotely from anywhere in the world, with no subscription fee. The free NetGear ReadyCLOUD app for PCs and the mobile apps for iOS and Android enable you to have a private and secure cloud running exclusively from your ReadyNAS 212 and 214. You can easily and automatically upload media content such as photos from your mobile device to your personal cloud, even editing and sharing files stored at home while you’re on the move, as ReadyCLOUD can be accessed anytime, anywhere, and from virtually any connected device.

The NetGear RN212 is priced at INR 30,698 while RN214 is priced at INR 38,396.  Backed by 3 years warranty, the NetGear RN212 and RN214 are available through authorized NetGear partners and other reseller channels and retail partners in India.
