Encrypting Drives; Media Cartridges - Buffalo TeraStation TS3400D User Manual

Encrypting Drives

Internal drives (and arrays) can be encrypted with 128-bit AES during formatting. Encrypted drives and arrays are
then readable only from that specific TeraStation. To unencrypt a drive or array, uncheck "Encryption" and format it
again.

Media Cartridges

If configured as a media cartridge, an internal drive can be used as a removable storage device in the same way as
an external drive. Media cartridges can be unplugged and connected to a different TeraStation with all data intact.
To configure a drive as a media cartridge, check "Media Cartridge" during formatting. To return it to its original state,
uncheck "Media Cartridge" and reformat the drive.
Media cartridges do not support:
• RAID arrays
• LVM volumes
• Access restrictions
• Direct connection to a Windows computer
