SAFELY SHARE DIGITAL FILES LOCALLY AND OVER THE INTERNET
The ShareCenter™ Pulse 2-Bay Network Storage, when used with internal SATA drives*, enables users to share documents, files, and digital media such as
music, photos, and videos with other users on a home or office network. Remotely accessing files through the Internet is also possible using the built-in secure
FTP server and web file server. Keep data safe by giving rights to specific users or groups and assign them to folders with specific read/write permissions. This
function is ideal for the home, where children’s access can be restricted to only age-appropriate materials.
STREAM DIGITAL MEDIA CONTENT WITH BUILT-IN MEDIA SERVER
Back up your digital media files to the ShareCenter Pulse for safekeeping, and enjoy the benefits of the built-in UPnP AV media server. Stream digital content to
compatible media players such as the PlayStation
®
3, Microsoft® Xbox 360™, and D-link’s MediaLounge product line.

ACCESS YOUR PERSONAL FILES FROM ANYWHERE
The ShareCenter Pulse includes a web file server which allows you to download your documents, photos, and other multimedia files from anywhere. Once
configured, simply log into your ShareCenter using the friendly web user interface to view a listing of available files. A convenient USB port on the front of the
ShareCenter can be used to attach external USB storage drives, USB printers, or an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for monitoring.
ENJOY PERFORMANCE, PROTECTION, AND FLEXIBILITY
The availability of four different hard drive modes (Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1) allows users to choose the configuration best suited to their needs.
Standard mode creates two separately accessible hard drives. JBOD combines both drives to create a single, easy to use volume. RAID 0 combines both
drives in a “striped” configuration, which provides the highest performance when using a Gigabit Ethernet connection. RAID 1 creates a copy of your data on
both drives, providing maximum protection; if one drive fails while configured as RAID 1, the unaffected drive continues to function as a single drive until the
failed drive is replaced. The new drive will then be re-mirrored, allowing the ShareCenter Pulse to return to its full level of protection.
*SATA drives are not included with the ShareCenter Pulse and must be purchased separately.

WHAT THIS PRODUCT DOES
The ShareCenter™ Pulse, when used with
internal SATA drives, enables homes and
offices to share documents, music, photos,
and videos across the network and on the
Internet, so family members, friends, or
employees can easily access them. This
device also allows for the creation of a
central network point for backing up files
and the built-in RAID 1 mirroring technology
protects these files from drive failure.
This device can be used to stream music,
photos, and videos to UPnP AV compatible
network media players.

ROBUST SOFTWARE INCLUDED
The included CD contains D-Link’s Setup
Wizard and Easy Search Utility, which
allows users to locate the ShareCenter
Pulse anywhere on the network. Once
located, they can use the utility to map the
hard drive(s) so they will appear in “My
Computer” on their PC. Backup software is
also included on the CD, allowing users to
backup valuable files from a computer to
the ShareCenter Pulse manually, according
to a schedule, or in real-time. Real-time
backups are a great way to safeguard
against unforeseen data-loss.
YOUR NETWORK SETUP
MIRRORING HARD DRIVES WITH RAID 1
TECHNOLOGY
Backing up to a regular hard drive offers a basic level
of protection. But what if that hard drive fails? Using the
ShareCenter Pulse with two internal SATA drives and
RAID 1 technology, users can mirror the two drives (i.e.
duplicate data on both drives), ensuring maximum protection
of valuable data. If one drive fails, the other continues to
function as a single drive until the failed drive is replaced.

Hard drives not included. RAID 1 mirroring requires the use of two internal sata drives. To avoid data incompatibility in RAID 1 operation, use SATA drives from the same
manufacturer. Formatted drive capacity for RAID 1 operation is dependant on the drive capacity of the lowest-sized drive. May not work with older generation SATA drives.
For a list of SATA drives that have been tested to work with the ShareCenter Pulse, visit D-Link support websites.

D-Link cannot guarantee full compatibility or proper playback with all codecs. Playback capability depends on the codec support of the UPnP AV media player.

Maximum HDD capacity supported may increase in future depending on advances in SATA technology.
