SECURE DIGITAL FILE SHARING FEATURE

The D-Link DNS-343 4-Bay Network Storage Enclosure enables you to add disk storage on the network to share documents, fi les, and digital media such as
music, videos and photos. With 4 bays, this storage enclosure is ideal for server deployment in offi ce settings, allowing businesses to fl exibly add up to four
internal SATA drives on a per-need basis to fulfi ll storage requirements as they grow. Remote access to fi les from the Internet is also possible with the built­in FTP server. With this FTP feature
whether accessed locally or over the Internet, through owner-defi ned rights given to specifi c users or groups. When you confi gure the DNS-343, you can set
up access privileges by setting up users, groups and folders and their respective permissions. This security feature is ideal for an offi ce environment with
employee-specifi c sensitive data.

, company employees can access work fi les via the Internet while outside the offi ce. In addition, data will be kept safe,

STREAM DIGITAL MEDIA CONTENT WITH BUILT IN MEDIA SERVER

Easily back up your digital media fi les to the DNS-343 for safekeeping. After securing your fi les, enjoy the benefi ts of its built-in UPnP AV media server as
you stream digital content to compatible media players (such as Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, and D-Link’s MediaLounge media players). An extra
functionality offered by the DNS-343 is the built-in OLED screen, which updates you on drive quotes, server status, and other integral system information in real
time.

PROTECTION, PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY

The availability of fi ve different hard drive modes (Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5) allows you to choose the confi guration best suited to your needs.
Standard mode creates four separately accessible hard drives. JBOD combines the drives together in linear fashion for maximum space effi ciency. RAID 0
combines the drives in a ‘striped’ confi guration, and is the choice offering the highest performance. RAID 1 causes the drives to mirror each other, providing
maximum protection. If one drive fails while confi gured 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 remirrored, allowing the DNS-343 to return to its previously secured state. RAID 5 allocates data across three or more drives and combines
storage effi ciency with reliable fi le protection.

WHAT THIS PRODUCT DOES

The D-Link DNS-343 4-Bay Network Storage

Enclosure, with its internal SATA drives

2

, enables you

to share your documents, music, photos and videos

across the network and on the internet where they’ll

be accessible to employees and offi ce users. This

enclosure allows you to create a central network

point for backing up valuable fi les and protects these

fi les from drive failure using selectable RAID 1/RAID

5 technology. You can also use this device to stream

digital media to UPnP AV compatible network media

players. Overheating can be kept to a minimum with

its aluminum chassis and built-in Smart Fans.

ROBUST SOFTWARE INCLUDED

The included CD contains D-Link’s Easy Search

Utility. This utility allows you to easily locate the

DNS-343 anywhere on the network. Once it is

located, use the utility to map the hard drive(s) so

they will appear in My Computer on your PC. Backup

software is also included on the CD. This will allow

the back up of valuable fi les from a computer to the

DNS-343 manually, per a schedule or in real-time.

Real-time backups are a great way to safeguard

against unfortunate accidents that may result in the

loss of precious fi les.

PREVENT HARD DRIVE FAILURE
WITH RAID 1/RAID 5 TECHNOLOGY

Backing data up to a regular hard drive offers a basic

level of protection, but there is always the chance of a

hard drive failure. Using the DNS-343 with its four internal

SATA drives and selectable RAID 1/RAID 5 backup modes,

you can choose to mirror between the two drives (i.e.

duplicate data on both drives) or spread your data among

three or more drives for maximum protection of valuable

data. If one drive fails, the others continue to function as a

single unit until the failed drive is replaced.
