Firmware Upgrade - Verbatim NAS HARD DRIVE User Manual

Scan
Press the Scan button if you would like to scan your disk for errors. This operation can take a very
long time to complete.
Unmount
Press the Unmount button if you would like to unmount the auxiliary storage device. This button
is disabled for the primary hard disk.
Detail
Press the Detail button in order to view a detailed status report for your drive.
Also, in case you have made a recent change to a storage device, you can press the Refresh
button at the bottom of the table to refresh the table with the most current status.
Finally, the fi eld at the bottom of the Disk Utility screen allows you to set an automatic spin-down
time for the hard drive. By spinning down the drive when not in use, you can conserve power,
extend the life of the drive, and lower the standby operating temperature (which in turn prevents
the cooling fan from running needlessly). The default setting is 30 minutes. Press Save to save
your change.

Firmware Upgrade

If a more recent version of the NAS drive's internal fi rmware is available, you will want to
download and install it. The most recent fi rmware version may have improved performance or
added features that could give you benefi ts not present in your current version.
Enter this screen by selecting Advanced / Maintenance / Firmware Upgrade. Make a note of
your current version number, which is displayed at the top of this screen. Then visit Verbatim's
Technical Support web site (refer to the Getting Help section later in this manual) to check if a
more recent version is available. If so, follow the download instructions provided on the site.
Once the upgrade fi le is available on your computer, browse to it from the Firmware Upgrade
screen, and then press the Start Upgrade button.
