3.3.1. Managing Your Devices

By selecting the View and configure options for different devices link, it will bring you to the Devices page that provides an
overview of all of the devices attached to your VR-N100U. One of the immediate management benefits of the Devices page is
that you can quickly see the current configuration and status of each attached device. If you don't see a device displayed on
this page, you know that your VR-N100U has not detected its presence. You can also click on a specific device to view
additional details about the device.
ATAPI and SCSI based CD and DVD drives are normally classified by VR-N100U as Access Devices. For VR-N100U, these
types of Access Devices are currently not supported and not installed on the security appliance.
Storage devices are hard drives. Hard drives on a VR-N100U have one primary function which is to store the captured video
from the networked IP cameras. If VR-N100U does not detect any hard drive on the VR-N100U, the security appliance will still
be fully functional in managing all networked security cameras, however, no video will be captured and stored on the appliance
until the Storage Devices are correctly configured.
VR-N100U allows the administrator to configure and Create New RAID Groups as RAID-1 or RAID-5. On this page,
information such as name, type and total/used/available capacities are available, plus an easy-to-understand color schema
Legend to determine the current status of the RAID Group. Detail information about the RAID can be made available by
clicking on the name of the RAID set.
