While many users prefer external RAID storage, and possibly RAID 0/1 configurations, the traditional external cases with 1Gbit LAN or maybe even USB-C may not offer the maximum possible performance you can get nowadays. For those users, Terramaster also offers the TD2 products that packs Thunderbolt 3 connection that boosts up transfer speeds to the max. The TD2 series are categorized as Direct-Attached storage (DAS).

So what is DAS and how it differs from NAS/SAS? (source)

Direct-attached storage (DAS) is digital storage directly attached to the computer accessing it, as opposed to storage accessed over a computer network (i.e. network-attached storage). Examples of DAS include hard drives, solid-state drives, optical disc drives, and storage on external drives. The name "DAS" is a retronym to contrast with storage area network (SAN) and network-attached storage (NAS). The key difference between DAS and NAS is that DAS storage is only directly accessible from the host to which the DAS is attached. A DAS does not incorporate any network hardware and related operating environment to provide a facility to share storage resources independently. The storage presented by a DAS to a connected host can of course be shared by that host. A SAN (storage area network) has more in common with a DAS than a NAS with the key difference being that DAS is a 1:1 relationship between storage and host whereas SAN is many to many. DAS is also generally faster than NAS, with most networks being limited to 1Gbps, while USB 3.0, common on external drives, supports up to 5Gbps and in our case of the TD2 series up to 40Gb with the Thunderbolt 3 interface (theoretical).
