Within a few minutes, you will have up to several hundred gigabytes available on your network - without much effort and any downtime.

That's why the SOHO version is the ideal solution for everyone wanting to add additional storage to existing networks quickly, seamlessly and cost-efficiently.

SOHO is for you!

To initially operate SOHO, you just need to assign an IP address in the network through an existing DHCP server. Another option: manually assign a set IP address. All other settings can be handled via a Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI), which can easily be accessed from the IP address of Open-E NAS SOHO.
