Easy Recovery with Snapshot Backup The IT staff routinely spends a considerable amount of time and resources dealing with data backup operations; worse yet, the time needed to backup Terabytes or more of data on traditional tape or disks may becomes a serious headache when facing limited time and resources. To solve this, ZyXEL presents Snapshot Backup technology. The Snapshot Backup function creates special "Snapshot" folders in the file system at preset time intervals. The folders allow users to access files of previous versions anytime when needed, and Snapshot folders can also be browsed and accessed like regular ones. To restore a previous file, simply copy it from the Snapshot folders. It's easy and fast.

Volumes or disks can be encrypted with the robust 256-bit AES algorithm; only authorized personnel with the right password or USB key can access the encrypted data. Easy Setup, Low Maintenance Web-based device and disk setup Wizards can help non-technical users setup the NSA-2401 in merely 10 minutes.
