App Central
If we move up towards App Central then that's where all the extras start to show. The days that a NAS unit was merely a file-server are long gone, ever since a year or three, applications can be installed onto your NAS. Think diverse here:
The NAS can be connected to the web, open the router ports and you are good to go. This unit has PHP factory installed alongside Apache. Also, MariaDB (MySQL) can be activated. With the click of a button, you can install handy tools to help you manage MySQL. A word of advice though, know what you are doing in relation to security. Secure your directories when fooling around with CMS software and MariaDB (MySQL compatible).
