I think he means this:
"NAS is often manufactured as a computer appliance – a specialized
computer built from the ground up for storing and serving files –
rather than simply a general purpose computer being used for the
role.[nb 1]"

Meaning he's using his own hardware rather than having bought a NAS
appliance off the shelf (like a Buffalo Terastation or similar)

Is this important for me?
