What does dual Gigabit Ethernet mean for link aggregation?

Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports can bond together for ~250 MB/s aggregate throughput, doubling backup and file transfer speed. This benefits large teams or high-bandwidth workflows.

How does the built-in Twonky DLNA media server work?

Twonky organizes videos, music, and photos and streams them to DLNA-compatible devices—smart TVs, media players, and game consoles—throughout your home or office.

What is one-touch USB backup on the EX2100?

A USB button on the front triggers automatic backup of an external USB drive's contents to the NAS. Ideal for quick backup of temporary media or client deliverables.

Plex is integrated but must be installed and configured via the My Cloud interface. Setup is straightforward and includes options for remote streaming.

Yes, if you install larger drives (4TB, 6TB, 8TB, etc.) in each bay, the total capacity will increase accordingly. Contact Procure.ae for drive and capacity recommendations.

What is link aggregation and when should I use it?
