How is Mirra different from a NAS (Network Attached Storage) or direct attach storage device?
A. The Mirra Personal Server is optimized for the back-up, protection, and web access of your digital content. While NAS products allow you to store files directly on the device, with the Mirra Personal Server you will always have two copies of your data (the original on the computer and the back-up on the Mirra Personal Server). With NAS devices, if the hard disk crashes, any data stored on the device could be permanently lost.
