Our smartphones and laptops are full of high-resolution images, videos and important documents. But sooner or later, every device memory is full. If you don't want to upload memories and sensitive data to the servers of various IT companies, it's best to set up a private cloud.

All you need is a Fritzbox and a USB stick or USB hard disk - depending on how much storage you need. We show you step by step how to set up a private personal network storage with the "FritzNAS" function, back up your data on it and share it later with friends and family via the Internet.
