External data source, RBS and Azure BLOB Storage

Hi,

I have some questions related to external storage in SharePoint Server 2013.

With SP2013 I can setup RBS and use SQL FileSTREAM to save in SQL the path of a file saved in a local drive. Doing this, you are freeing a lot of space in the DB.

Previous versions the only option was in local drive, but now in 2013 version it can be saved in a NAS device? And what about Azure BLOB Storage?

Thanks
