What is the difference between Nas and SAN storage?

NAS is often a single device made up of redundant storage containers or a redundant array of independent disks (RAID). SAN storage can be a network of multiple devices, including SSD and flash storage, hybrid storage, hybrid cloud storage, backup software and appliances and cloud storage.

Should you use a San instead of a network-attached storage (NAS)?

Computer memory and local storage resources might not provide enough storage, storage protection, multiple-user access or speed and performance for enterprise applications. So, most organizations employ some form of SAN in addition to network-attached storage (NAS) for improved efficiency and better data management.

Why should a server use a San?

Servers might use a SAN for facilitating high-speed, low-latency and high-volume communications. The ability to move data without server intervention frees up server processor cycles for other activities, such as application processing.
