SMS3 Care and Handling
The SMS3 Media Server is a very sophisticated
electronic component. Accordingly, care should
be taken not to drop, shake or bump the unit,
especially when in use.
Hardware
The unit contains a full-size 160GB hard drive, a
powerful compact processor, an Ethernet LAN
connection, and connections for a keyboard and
mouse. It supports an external hard drive (USB

The SMS3 will reformat the external hard drive
on the first backup, so a dedicated backup hard
drive is recommended.
Software
For its operating system, the SMS3 Media Server
uses embedded Linux. When controlled by a net-
worked computer, the SMS3 is compatible with
Windows-based PC and Macintosh web browsers.
