Keep your data protected against disaster. Every Host & Tech dedicated server ships with 100–500 GB of free external NAS backup storage — isolated from your server and accessible via FTP, NFS, or CIFS.
Your NAS backup device is fully managed from your Host & Tech client area with no server-side configuration required.
Connect using FTP by default. Switch to NFS or CIFS to mount your backup space as a local disk on your server — manage files exactly like a local drive with full read/write access.
Use one backup device as a central backup hub shared between all your dedicated servers in the same datacentre. Ideal for consolidating backups from clustered infrastructure.
Change FTP passwords, manage Access Control Lists, and reset the entire backup device with a single click directly from your Host & Tech client area — no SSH required.
Start with 100–500 GB free, then scale up to 1 TB, 5 TB, or 10 TB as your backup requirements grow. Expand directly from your client area without any downtime.
Define exactly which server IP addresses can access the backup device. Grant or revoke access per-IP from the client area — ensuring only your authorised servers can connect.
Wipe the entire backup device and reset credentials with a single click from your client area. Useful for decommissioning servers or re-provisioning backup storage securely.
All three protocols let your server communicate directly with your NAS backup device. NFS and CIFS allow transparent local-disk mounting for seamless backup automation scripts.
Start with the free allocation included with your server, and upgrade capacity on demand from your client area.

View PlansFTP NAS backup storage is an external network-attached storage device physically separate from your dedicated server. It connects over FTP, NFS, or CIFS and serves as an off-server disaster recovery location for your data.
Every Host & Tech dedicated server includes between 100 GB and 500 GB of free external NAS backup storage depending on your plan. You can upgrade to 1 TB, 5 TB, or 10 TB at any time from your client area.
By default your server connects via FTP. You can also configure NFS or CIFS, which allow you to mount the backup device as a local disk directly on your server — making it transparent to backup tools and scripts.
Yes. You can share the backup device between multiple dedicated servers in the same datacentre. Access Control Lists (ACL) let you specify which server IPs are permitted to connect, so you can use one device as a central backup hub.
Everything is managed from your Host & Tech client area. You can change the FTP password, configure ACL rules, reset the device, and upgrade storage capacity — all without SSH or any server-side changes.
Yes. The NAS backup device is a separate physical appliance in the same datacentre as your server. If your server is compromised or fails, your backup data remains intact and accessible independently.
All Host & Tech dedicated servers include 100–500 GB of free FTP NAS backup storage as standard — no extra charge, no configuration required.
