Abstract: The present invention provides a network storage system for increasing data reading efficiency of a net storage service and a network storage method for increasing data reading efficiency of the net storage service. The network storage system comprises: a network processing module, a first fast file transmitting module, and a second fast file transmitting module. The present invention can omit the standard process of the traditional operation system processing files when reading data, and the network storage system and the network storage method of the present invention can use a new file processing procedure in the second fast file transmitting module. In this way, the present invention can shorten the file processing flow in the traditional network storage system, so as to increase data reading efficiency of the net storage service over 250%.

Abstract: The present invention provides a network storage system for increasing data writing efficiency of a net storage service and a network storage method for increasing data writing efficiency of the net storage service. The network storage system comprises: a first module, a first data buffer, a second module, and a third module. The present invention can omit the standard process of the traditional operation system processing files when writing data, and the network storage system and the network storage method of the present invention can use a new file processing procedure in the second module and the third module. In this way, the present invention can shorten the file processing flow in the traditional network storage system, so as to increase data writing efficiency of the net storage service over 50%.

Abstract: A method for configuring a network-attached storage (NAS) includes: coupling the network-attached storage to a user-end personal computer (PC) via an external bus which supports a plug & play function; and utilizing the user-end PC to configure a network interface of the NAS via the external bus. A network-attached storage (NAS) includes a network interface, a bus interface, and processor. The network interface is for connecting with a network. The bus interface is for connecting with an external bus which supports a plug & play function and for receiving network interface setting parameters outputted by a user-end PC via the external bus. The processor is coupled between the network interface and the bus interface, and implemented for configuring the network interface according to the network interface setting parameters received by the bus interface.
