help TerraMaster F5-221 FAQ
What is the TerraMaster F5-221?
The TerraMaster F5-221 is a five-bay NAS enclosure, meaning the box provides network storage while you supply the drives. It uses an Intel Celeron processor and is built for shared files, backups, and NAS applications.
How many drives can the TerraMaster F5-221 hold?
The F5-221 has five drive bays. It is intended for user-supplied drives, so the enclosure does not automatically come with a prefilled five-disk array.
Does RAID on the TerraMaster F5-221 replace a backup?
RAID can keep storage available after certain drive failures, but it is not a backup of deleted, corrupted, or encrypted files. Use the F5-221's backup functions with a separate copy or destination.
Can the TerraMaster F5-221 share files across a home or office network?
Yes, network file sharing is a core F5-221 use case, and its five-bay design provides room for a larger storage pool. It can also support backup and other NAS applications through its software environment.
