A handy notepad

Using

digital notetaking tools to create personal notepads is becoming increasingly popular, from

Microsoft® Office OneNote™ 2003 to the well-known notetaking service Evernote. Cloud-based notetaking applications are incredibly useful and convenient as they allow users to access data from anywhere at anytime and does not require the installation of notetaking software. But the content of notes is incredibly important for users, and trusting this content to cloud storage means potentially exposing it to a data breach or hack. Even the leading notetaking service provider was hacked in 2013, leading to them asking their millions of users to reset their passwords.

QNAP has now leveraged its private cloud functionalities to introduce Notes Station. It provides the convenience of notetaking on cloud-based services but with the privacy and security of Turbo NAS. Users do not have to worry about risks from public storage, and are able to enjoy easier data access at all times.

QNAP Private Cloud e-Notes Solution

A Digital Notepad & Multimedia Center on Your Private Cloud

Is it safe to put personal notes on the public cloud?

Cloud services = Software + Data storage

Under the concept of cloud services, the software and data storage are integrated on cloud services. For example,

Evernote makes note-taking available and accessible online. When users access the cloud service and leave personal data on the service's storage, it may raise both privacy and security concerns.

Public cloud: we trust the service provider with our data

Private cloud: we manage and control the data ourselves

You know

what ?

Statistics show that many famous cloud services have been attacked and have led to asking their users to change passwords. An industry-leading cloud notetaking service provider was once hacked, and although they stated that no data was stolen, they still forced their users to reset their passwords.

Private cloud: convenience & security

QNAP's private cloud allows users to easily create personal cloud services that are available via network and controlled by the users themselves. Notes Station is currently the world's only digital notetaking tool based on a private cloud service, and allows users to effortlessly create their own notebooks and completely control their ideas and data.

Hacking puts a company out of business

An US-based source code hosting provider was hacked on June 17, 2014 and held to ransom. When the attackers failed to receive the ransom, they stopped the company's online services and deleted almost the entire customer database. In the end, the company was effectively forced out of business by the attacker, and their customers lost a huge amount of important data.

User Experience

From a current QNAP user…

David is 25 years old. Although he just started work a year ago, he has been using a QNAP

Turbo NAS for 3 years. Let's see how he uses Notes Station in his work and life.

How do you use the Notes Station for notetaking?

David: As I work in the IT industry, I need to learn new things quickly. I often surf the web to gather information, but I'm not able to put my notes on the cloud due to my work. For me, Notes Station is an easy tool for recording online information and classifying multiple notes for easy searching. It offers a three-layer architecture to classify notes, including notebooks, sessions, and pages - making it more useful for notetaking compared to other cloud notes platforms that only have one-layer.

How do you collect online information and organize into useful notes?

David: Notes Station Clipper is a great tool to capture web page content. I can edit the captured content to organize it better, or just capture the full page or selected items .

7

What feature of Notes Station surprises you the most?

David: The full-screen preview function of the Qnotes mobile app is surprisingly easy-to-use. Once I read some comics on a forum and thought about saving the content in Notes Station for reviewing next time. I just had to open Qnotes on my mobile phone, and click on the pictures one by one to read. It's just like reading a comic book.

User Experience

From a current QNAP user…

Shirley is a 23-year-old sales person. She recently bought her first QNAP Turbo NAS due to her boyfriend's recommendation and Notes Station is her first experience to use the private cloud application.

Why do you want to use

Notes Station?

Shirley: I previously used a cloud notes platform and paid US$45 a year for the professional version.

But Notes Station is free so I can save my money.

Notes Station also allows you to import from cloudbased notes, and it is absolutely easy-to-use.

Was it difficult to build the private cloud notes system?

Shirley: Not at all. In the QTS App Center, you just click on the app to install it. It's no different to using the app center on a smartphone.

What kind of notes you take with Notes Station?

Shirley: My work requires me to go out for meetings and to visit customers. Using digital notes is quite convenient for me as I can take pictures and record audio and easily make this data part of my report. In meetings it is especially useful as I can immediately take pictures of the white board with our discussion on it, and add my own notes to it as necessary.

What other experiences have you had with Notes Station?

Shirley: I invited my boyfriend to use Notes

Station together. Because we are in a long-distance relationship, we use Notes Station as a platform to keep a diary and share our diary with each other. It is safely stored on our private cloud so we don't need to worry about privacy issues.

QNAP Transcoding Center

Mobile devices are taking over the world, and more and more people are starting to use them as their movie player of choice. But the diverse number of video formats used (MP4, AVI, MKV, etc) have made it inconvenient for users to watch videos as their device may lack the necessary codecs. One way around this is called "Transcoding". Background transcoding is supported by the Turbo NAS and can process your videos into universally-used video formats. Users only need to choose their device's resolution and the video files they want to watch will be transcoded for watching on mobile devices via the Internet.

Background Transcoding

Management

Background Transcoding allows you to convert videos to optimized resolutions for accommodating slower/restricted network environments and device limitations.

Why do we need transcoding?

With the popularity of high-definition smartphones and digital cameras, video resolutions are getting higher. A higher resolution means larger file sizes and more bandwidth needed for streaming. Transcoding creates videos with optimal resolutions for sharing & watching in order to save bandwidth, but also retains the unaltered original video on the

Turbo NAS.

Smart transcoding adapts to suit different bandwidth

Background Transcoding Function

Background Transcoding Technology

You can add videos to a transcoding list and use the Turbo NAS to convert the original high resolution video for use with multiple resolutions. Then you can select an appropriate resolution to match your environment when sharing or watching.

Auto transcoding

When you set a Turbo NAS folder as an auto-transcoding folder, the Turbo NAS will automatically convert the videos in this folder to the resolution you have set. For example, if you set the folder to 360P, the video will be automatically transcoded to this resolution as a background task when you upload to this folder.

Performance

Compare the transcoding time between the TS-x31 series (using

ARM Coratex-A9 1.2 GHz Dual Core processor) and single-core-based

Turbo NAS models using the same high-resolution (1080p) video. The TSx31 series is 3 times faster!

According to surveys, in a home environment the Turbo NAS is idle more than 70% of the time. To make the most of this idle time, you can set the Turbo NAS to transcode videos when you are at work or when you are asleep. This way you can come home or wake up and immediately watch videos on your mobile devices.

Qsync: A Powerful Utility for File

Synchronization in Personal Applications

Public cloud files synchronization services allow family members to share large multimedia files, but comes with certain drawbacks:

1. Security: there is the possibility of data on public cloud services being hacked, leaked or intercepted.

2. Cost: the greater the size of your data storage needs, the greater the cost of the service (US$9.99 per month for 1TB storage space on

Google Drive.)

With Qsync on Turbo NAS, you can create a Google Drive like private cloud with a large storage capacity to fulfill your needs. Any files added to the Qsync folder will be accessible across multiple devices, and synchronized with different work groups flexibly and effortlessly. With no additional costs or storage limits, Qsync can centralize files from different family members and help them share their files anytime, anywhere.
