Why you should buy an Amazon Prime Day NAS deal

Network-attached storage allows you to do some incredible things at home and in the office. Whether you plan on creating and running a media server or managing a file storage solution, a NAS enclosure is precisely what you require.

There are so many models to choose from, and multiple vendors offer similar enclosures at varying price points. This does mean you can score some deals on new enclosures, especially with Prime Day NAS deals offering all-time low prices. 

Choosing the best NAS involves a few factors, namely price, processor, and the number of drive bays. The better the processor, the more drive bays available, and advanced features like 10Gb networking can inflate prices quickly. But Prime Day does at least give you an opportunity to invest in some better hardware for less, giving you a little room to future-proof your setup.

Getting the best Prime Day NAS deal for you

Scoring the best deal is one thing, but getting the right deal for you is incredibly important. We want you to spend your money wisely. There's no point buying a NAS that won't be able to do what you need it to, just because it's the enclosure with the steepest price drop. This is why we recommend NAS enclosures based on specs and price.

It's important to decide what you want to use the NAS enclosure for. Once you've got that sorted, price is then a factor to consider, allowing you to stick to a limit. If you're not comfortable paying out for a more expensive NAS at full price, there's no reason why you should pay a similar amount for one that's discounted.

NAS enclosures are usually priced well, depending on the processor, drive bays, and other specifications. But when we're enjoying big events like Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day, retailers will use all kinds of tactics to make you think a deal is better than it is. Be wary of prices that are inflated to appear like deals. 

One of our top tips is to use Microsoft Edge for your Amazon shopping with its built-in shopping feature. Not only will it show you recent price history on products, it also helps you compare prices to other retailers to make sure you're happy what you're getting is actually a deal. All of the deals we're showing here you can be sure are actual deals.
