Protect your data from ransomware threats with Snapshots

Snapshots are an advanced backup method and are normally reserved for high-end business NAS. QNAP provides snapshots as standard for all NAS – including the TS-233. Snapshots work by recording the current state of the system, allowing it to be restored back this state at any time - greatly helping in mitigating the threat of ransomware.

Back up PCs to your NAS

Always remember to back up! You should routinely (or automatically) back up files and data from your computer to your TS-233.

Take snapshots within seconds

Instantly take snapshots to record the current state of your system and data. You can quickly restore files and data to a previously recorded state by selecting a snapshot version from a specific time point.

Back up snapshots

Multiply data protection by backing up snapshot files! Replicate snapshots in the TS-233 to a remote NAS (Snapshot Replica) and only copy the changes made. This helps save time & bandwidth, and can be run manually or on a scheduled basis.

Restore data using snapshots

Snapshot content can be quickly restored to a local NAS, or restored on a folder/file basis to a local/remote NAS or cloud storage. You can also conveniently view and restore snapshots from the client side.
