DiskMaster

Thank you for purchasing the DiskMaster storage solution. With
speed, ease of use, high capacity, and support for numerous
applications, DiskMaster is the ideal solution for all of your data
storage needs.

1.1 An Overview of the DiskMaster

Securely access all of your multimedia, music and data files on your
local LAN or through Internet.

Thanks to its Fast/Gigabit port and its capacity for two Hard Disks, the
DiskMaster provides high speed data throughput with the security that all
your data is safe (only RAID1).
Based on the IP protocol, the DiskMaster allows you to access all of your
files from anywhere (an FTP server is included), giving you complete
control on space and user or group access providing a very granular level
of security. Furthermore, the Diskmaster allows you to use your favorite
operating system; Windows®, Mac or Linux.

Ease of use, performance and security.

The DiskMaster can be used in three modes: single volume, performance,
or security mode.
As a single volume, or JBOD, DiskMaster will show both Hard Disk Drives
as a single unit, providing maximum capacity and ease of use. If
performance is what you need, you can configure the Diskmaster in RAID0
and stream your multimedia and graphic files for multiple users with up to
160Mb/s reading and 120Mb/s writing speeds (for Gigabit) for immediate
access to your data.
Finally, if your business or home needs full data security, DiskMaster not
only provides a full featured backup software, but also RAID1 functionality.
This way, even if you lose one of disks, you will have an image of your data
on the other.

iTunes®, BitTorrentTM and USB Print Server

Turn off your computer and use the DiskMaster as your server. DiskMaster
integrates a BitTorrent client (only on the Gigabit device) so that you can
now download any file you want without the need to use your computer.
Now, you will not only will you be able to share your multimedia or data
files, but you will also be able to use the Diskmaster as a iTunes server and
play your favorite songs directly from the Diskmaster. Additionally, thanks
to the DiskMaster’s USB port, you can now connect your normal USB
printer and turn it into a fully functional networked shared printer. Doing

starts formatting the disks. This procedure will destroy all
the data on the disks. Make sure You have backed up
any important data on the disks before the format
process. It may require some times; do not perform other
jobs during hard drive formatting

The DiskMaster supports 128bit loop-AES encryption for
the EXT2 file system. When enabled, the drive has to be
formatted again and you will be prompted for a password
(has to be exactly 20 characters).

Allow system file EXT2 / EXT3 or FAT32.

Dual Hard Drive installation

The following illustrates the layout of the Web-based Configuration Tool
main screen. This page allows you to format the physical hard disks into
DiskMaster.

Click on Maintenance then Raid Settings.

In this section you can manage the RAID array and set up your drives. The
DiskMaster supports RAID 0 and RAID 1. Two hard drives of identical
capacity and make are required.
Please Select the RAID mode (RAID 0, RAID 1 or JBOD) then Create

Raid Systems.

ISO 9001:2000 Certified Company

Where solutions begin

DiskMaster

If only one drive is installed, the RAID configuration will
not be available.

Creating the RAID system will take several hours,
depending on HDD capacity. Do not turn off the power or
interrupt the system in any other way during this process!
We recommend using the EXT2 file system for optimum
performance and functionality. Changing the RAID setup
will require you to re-format the drives. Make sure you
backup all data before doing so!

There are 3 differents RAID mode:

• RAID 0= RAID 0, known as disk striping, has

generally the best performance, but does not offer
any redundancy. In this level, data is broken into
small units called sectors, and sectors are distributed
across all disks in the array. As it does not provide
any data protection, if any disk in the array fails then
all data in the array is lost. Such stripes allocation
allows to enhance I/O performance.

• RAID 1= RAID Level 1, known as disk mirroring, is a

popular approach to protect data from adisk failure.
To implement RAID Level 1, you need at least two
physical hard drives. As the disks are paired up, all
disk writes are duplicated on both disks. You can
back up data without interruption using this algorithm.
In case of a disk failure, the system can continue to
run without being affected.

• JBOD=JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks) is a group of

ISO 9001:2000 Certified Company

disks. JBOD is not technically RAID but “disk
spanning.” In this mode, all the disks are grouped
together so they appears as a large single disk. Each

Where solutions begin

DiskMaster

disk can operate independently and is seen as an
individual disk. Therefore, the total capacity of JBOD
is the sum of the capacities of each disk. This allows
the user to add disks until the desired total capacity is
reached. Since JBOD provides no performance
increase and data protection, it is seldom used.

1.10 How to login

To configure your DiskMaster , you will need to use the web browser, enter
the IP address and then use the web configuration for further setup. To find
out the IP address of your device once it is connected to the network, there
are several different ways as described on the following pages.
Use the Setup utility included on the CD. This will list the device
automatically and allow you to access the web configuration interface with
a simple click of your mouse. You may also use the same utility at a later
point to map the network drive after you setup your shares.

• Turn on your DiskMaster and make sure it is connected to the same

network as your computer.

• Start the Setup utility (CDRom:\Utility\setup.exe) by double clicking

on the Setup file and then pressing the Setup button.

• Your DiskMaster will automatically show up in the device list, but if not

(click again on Search Again), make sure the Setup utility has access

to the network and search again. You might have to configure your

firewall or even temporarily turn it off.

• Select your device and click on OK to start the setup wizard.
