UniFi ecosystem
UniFi Drive: what it is and what we can install
Network storage (NAS) integrated into the UniFi ecosystem.
- Definition
- UniFi Drive is Ubiquiti's storage application for the UNAS range of NAS devices: shared folders and backups inside the network, managed from the UniFi ecosystem.
How it works
Useful for offices and businesses that want to centralise files locally with the same management as the rest of the infrastructure. We size it together with the network (10G ports, UPS and off-site copies).
Capabilities
What UniFi Drive can do
Shared files
Folders per team or department with permissions.
Backups
Backup target inside the network; we always recommend an additional off-site copy.
High-speed connectivity
Models with 10G ports to connect to aggregation switches.

Important caveats
- A NAS does not replace a backup policy: we apply the 3-2-1 rule (three copies, two media, one off-site).

Questions about UniFi Drive
Can I store camera recordings on a UNAS?
UniFi Protect records to the console or a UniFi NVR. Additional archiving options depend on the Protect version at any given time; if you need long-term video retention we design it and confirm it against the current version.
