The LincStation N1 is a stylish NAS box built to offer a compact and flexible network storage and private cloud solution for small offices and home users. The box runs on Unraid OS, which offers both excellent data protection, scalability, and a relatively easy-to-use interface. However, if you’re new to NAS, it will take some getting used to.

LincStation has opted to go straight in with the Unraid UI, which is a good start and means there’s plenty of support out there if you need assistance getting started, although it isn’t as intuitive as some of the best NAS hard drives we’ve reviewed. The N1 is bundled with a free one-year licence for the software, this is a perpetual licence, so unless you renew, you’ll stop receiving updates to the OS after the first year. If you want to keep up to date with the Unraid OS, then at present the starter licence is $49 a year or $249 for a lifetime licence.
