- giancarlostoro 6y agoI think a network based one in theory should be capable of doing so with the right OS / configuration, but not sure about a hardware based one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Write_once_read_many https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Write_once_read_many This is the acronym I saw on HN somewhere though, WORM. Edit: Upon further research its kind of annoying that this isn't more common for NAS / cloud storage solutions. I think some like Dropbox do keep revisions on the other hand.
