Please be reminded that by saving the key on the NAS, data will only be protected in
case of stolen hard disk drives. However, there is still a risk of data breach if the entire
NAS is stolen as the data is accessible after the NAS is restarted.
If the encryption key is not saved on the NAS, the NAS will be protected against data
breach even if the entire NAS were stolen. The disadvantage is that the disk volume
needs to be manually unlocked each time the system restarts.
