Alerts Setup
Using the Alerts Setup submenu, you can configure e-mails or popup messages that
provide alerts for system conditions, fan operability, over temperature; hard drive,
volume, network, and USB status; and user and group events. These alerts help the
system administrator(s) manage and detect events or errors.
Note: E-mail alerts may not work with some ISPs using strong spam filtering. For further information,
go to support.wdc.com and search the knowledge base for answer ID 2570.
To set up automatic e-mail notifications:
1. On the Alerts Setup page, click Enable next to Email Notification.
2. Enter the name of the SMTP server or an IP address to be used for sending e-
mail in the SMTP Server field (check with your ISP provider for the SMTP server
name).
3. Enter the port number to be used when connected for SMTP sending in the
SMTP Port field.
4. Click Enable next to SMTP Authentication if required, then enter the user name
and password.
5. Enter the e-mail address to which to send an e-mail message when an event
occurs in the Email Recipients field. Up to five e-mail addresses can be added at
a time.
6. Click Send Test Mail to send a test alert and confirm your settings are correct.
