NSA320 User's Guide
The NSA is a DLNA-compliant media server that lets DLNA-
compliant media clients play video, audio, and photo content
files stored on the NSA.
Use RAID 1 if you have two drives and want to mirror
primary data to the second drive.
If one drive fails, replace it and then re-synchronize to
recover all data.
Configure a password for an individual User to restrict
access to the NSA.
Data can be shared among all Windows users that have FTP
client software or CIFS file sharing support.
The NSA is also a DLNA-certified media server that lets
DLNA-compliant media clients play video, audio, and photo
content files stored on the NSA.
Access the NSA using a regular web connection (HTTP) or
secure web connection (HTTPS).
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the NSA
to obtain an IP address and subnet mask at start-up from a
centralized DHCP server. Alternatively, you can give the NSA
a static IP address and subnet mask.
The embedded web configurator is an platform-independent
web-based utility that allows you to easily access the NSA's
management settings.
If a hard disk inside the NSA is idle for a specific number of
minutes, the NSA puts it to sleep until you use it again. The
default is 15 minutes. You can configure it.
Upload new firmware to the NSA using the web configurator.
You can also back up and restore the NSA configuration file
containing all its settings to/from your computer.
Use the NAS Starter Utility from a Windows computer to find
NSA(s) in your network, access the NSA login page, change
its IP address configuration or map to a Windows network
drive.
Memeo Autobackup is a tool for Windows users to create
backups of data stored on their Windows computers to an
NSA. This software is included on the CD.
Configure a time server and set a time zone for your NSA to
show the correct times in logs.
