Once you’ve set everything up, click “Save” to start the DHCP server and save the settings.

4.2.4.2 Bonjour

In this section, you can enable or disable the Bonjour service. For Mac users, turn it on for easy access to the Login page via the Web browser. You can also enable

iTunes so music les can be accessed. When the iTunes option is enabled, you can store MP3 music les in the “/public/music” folder and play them directly from iTunes.

The Gigabit SATA NAS will automatically appear in iTunes under Shared Devices.

WEB CONFIGURATION

4.2.4.3 BitTorrent

In this section, you can manage your torrents and add new downloads to the queue.

Before you add the rst job, set a limit for the download and upload speed based on your network’s bandwidth. After changing the settings, click “Save” to apply the new conguration. NOTE: If there is no hard drive installed or if the drive isn’t

formatted, this menu is not available.

To start downloading les, you need to download a torrent le from the Internet rst, then upload it to the NAS. Once the torrent le is added, you can start downloading.

The downloaded les will be stored in your “/public/btdownload” folder. The BitTorrent client on the Gigabit SATA NAS can download ve les at a time, with a maximum of 40 les in the queue. Remember to start the download again if the device has been turned off or rebooted before the le has been downloaded completely. (Also see Section 6: Additional Features / BitTorrent.) NOTE: The BitTorrent client on the NAS uses the TCP protocol and the ports 6881-

6889. Make sure those ports are not blocked by your router or its rewall and, if necessary, set up port forwarding so trafc for those ports is forwarded to the NAS.

WEB CONFIGURATION

4.2.5 Maintenance

In this menu, you can format the hard drive(s), upgrade the rmware and manage the conguration settings.

4.2.5.1 Disk Utility

This utility can be used to format the hard drive(s) and view related disk information.

Encryption — The Gigabit SATA NAS supports 128-bit loop-AES encryption for the

EXT2 le system. When enabled, the drive needs to be formatted again, and you’ll be prompted for a password (which has to be exactly 20 characters). File System (Model 505888 / 1.5 TB) — The available le systems are EXT2, EXT3, FAT32 and NTFS. For the drive installed in the Gigabit SATA NAS, using EXT2

is recommended for optimum performance and functionality when it is used as

network drive only. If it’s to be connected to a PC via USB, as well, then NTFS is the preferred le system, so that it can be mounted without the need to install

additional applications to read the EXT2 partition. The performance of the network drive will not be as good as with EXT2, however.

File System (Model 505895 / 3 TB) — For drives not in a RAID array, there’s a choice among EXT2, EXT3 and FAT32. For drives installed in the Gigabit SATA

NAS, using EXT2 is recommended for optimum performance and functionality.

Scandisk — Click “Scan” to check the disk integrity. If possible, any errors found will automatically be xed. This can take awhile to nish, depending on the capacity of the drive. During any such xes, the disk can not be used.

Unmount — This function is only available for external USB drives attached to the NAS. Click “Unmount” to eject the USB drive before you disconnect it.

WEB CONFIGURATION

Detail — Click “Detail” to see additional disk information. If the drive supports S.M.A.R.T, it will also report the disk’s health status.

HDD Power Management — To save power and reduce heat, you can let the hard disk spin down if not used for a certain amount of time. Enter a time in minutes and click “Save” to apply the new setting. NOTE: The “disk spin down” function might not work properly for some WD hard drives due to the lack of the E3h command.

4.2.5.2 RAID Setting

In this section (Model 505895 only), you can manage the RAID array and set up your drives. The Gigabit SATA NAS supports RAID 0 and RAID 1. Two hard drives of identical capacity and make are required. If only one drive is installed, the RAID

conguration will not be available.

RAID 0 — Used when speed is the primary objective, RAID Level 0 (also called “striping”) is not redundant. This form of array splits each piece of data across both of the drives in segments; since data is written without any form of parity

data-checking, it allows for the fastest data transfer compared to the other setups. However, if one drive becomes damaged, the whole array can become corrupted. RAID 1 — This mode requires two identical drives for implementation. A RAID 1 creates an exact copy (or mirror) of a set of data on the second drive, useful when reliability and backup are more important than data capacity. Available capacity to the user will only be as large as a single drive, but when one of the

WEB CONFIGURATION

hard drives fails, it can be replaced and the data rebuilt. JBOD — Used to combine two hard drives of different capacity into a single, larger hard drive. If you’re using two identical drives, RAID 0 is recommended instead.

NOTE: Creating the RAID system can take awhile, depending on drive capacity. Do not turn off power or interrupt the system in any other way during this process!

The use of the EXT2 le system for optimum performance and functionality is

recommended. Also, changing the RAID setup requires that you to re-format the drives. Make sure you back up all data before doing so.

4.2.5.2.1 Rebuilding a RAID Array

When using RAID 1, if one of the drives fails, the faulty HDD has to be replaced and the RAID 1 array rebuilt.

1. Log in and go to the RAID Setting menu to check the disk status. If there’s a problem, it will show which drive needs to be replaced.

2. Turn off the power, remove the power supply from the AC outlet and replace the defective HDD with a new one.

3. Turn on the power and go to the RAID Setting menu. Click “Add disk” to start rebuilding your RAID array. NOTE: On the bridge board of the Gigabit SATA NAS, the P1 connector indicates

the drive at hdb, whereas P2 indicates the drive at hda. With rmware v2.6.3 or

later, P1 indicates the drive at hdc and P2 the drive at hdd.

WEB CONFIGURATION

4. Depending on capacity, rebuilding can take awhile. Do not turn off the power or interrupt the system in any other way. The HDD LED will be on while the RAID array is being rebuilt.

WEB CONFIGURATION

5. When the procedure is complete, the HDD LED will turn off and the disk status will show that the system is ready.

NOTE: Clicking “Remove system data” or “Remove raid system” will erase all data!

Only use these if you need to set up a different RAID system.

4.2.5.3 Firmware Upgrade

In this section, you can check the current rmware version and upgrade if a new one is available. Download the latest rmware and store it on your computer, then browse for the *.gz le, select it and start the upgrade. The upgrade process takes

about 10-20 minutes.

WEB CONFIGURATION

NOTE: Never turn off your device during the rmware upgrade procedure, as this may damage it. If for any reasons (e.g., power supply failure during the rmware

upgrade) the procedure fails, you may not be able to operate your device anymore.

4.2.5.4 Save Conguration

For backup and before every rmware upgrade, you can use this function to save the current conguration. Click “Save” and save the “cong.tar” le on your computer.

4.2.5.5 Restore Conguration

To quickly restore previous settings or set up multiple units, you can save the

conguration and then use this function to upload a previous backup. Browse for the “cong.tar” le on your computer and click “Restore” to restore the previous

settings.

GLOSSARY

7 GLOSSARY

BitTorrent — This is a peer-to-peer (P2P) le distribution client application, and also refers to its related le-sharing protocol. BitTorrent is designed to distribute

large amounts of data widely without incurring the corresponding consumption in costly server and bandwidth resources.

EXT2 — The ext2, or second extended, le system is a le system found mostly on Linux operating systems. This is the recommended le system for the

Gigabit SATA NAS network drive. EXT3 — The ext3, or third extended, le system is a journaled le system found mostly on Linux operating systems.

FAT32 — File Allocation Table (FAT) is a le system developed by Microsoft for MS-DOS. The FAT le system is considered relatively uncomplicated, and is

consequently supported by virtually all existing operating systems for personal

computers. The maximum size of a single le is limited to 4 GB. FTP — FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, is a commonly used protocol for exchanging les over any network that supports the TCP/IP protocol (such as the Internet or an intranet). There are two computers involved in an FTP transfer: a server (Gigabit SATA NAS) and a client (user’s computer). NTFS — NTFS, or New Technology File System, is the standard le system of Windows NT and its descendants. NTFS has several improvements over FAT,

but is not compatible with other operating systems (except, perhaps, in Read Only mode). LAN — A local area network (LAN) is a computer network covering a small local area, like a home, ofce or small group of buildings such as a residence, ofce complex or college. SMB — Server Message Block (SMB) is a network application-level protocol mainly applied to share les, printers, serial ports and miscellaneous communications between nodes on a network.

Torrent — A torrent can mean either a torrent metadata le or all les described by it, depending on context. The torrent le contains metadata about all the les it makes downloadable, including their names and sizes and checksums

of all pieces in the torrent. It also contains the address of a tracker that coordinates communication between the peers in the swarm.

FAQ

8 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: Why can’t I restart or turn off the server? A: Make sure there are no current le transfers in process or any other disk activity.

Close any other applications that might still be accessing the NAS, then try again.

Q: What port is the BitTorrent client on the Gigabit SATA NAS using? A: The BitTorrent client is using the TCP protocol and the ports 6881-6889.

Q: How many les can the BitTorrent client download at the same time?

A: It can download ve les at a time, with another 40 in the queue.

Q: Does the Gigabit SATA NASN support SSH or Telnet access? A: No, it doesn’t support SSH, Telnet or TFTP access.

Q: Why doesn’t the torrent le show up on the list after clicking “Add”?

A: If the new le doesn’t show up or the page stays blank, refresh the page or re-select “BTorrent” from the left-hand menu to reload the page.

Q: Can I use the Gigabit SATA NAS as a USB and network drive at the same time? A: No, it can be used either as a USB drive or as a network drive, but not both at

the same time. When both cables are connected, the USB connection has priority.

FAQ

Q: Which le system is recommended for the internal hard drive?

A: If the device is mainly used as network drive, using the EXT2 le system is recommended. When the drive is also often used as a USB drive, the most

suitable le system will depend on the operating system. NTFS is most suitable for Windows, and FAT32 offers the best compatibility.

Q: Why doesn’t the connected the USB cable show up on my computer? A: If the device is currently used as a network drive, it has to be restarted rst.

Depending on the le system of the internal hard drive, your operating system might not natively support it, and you need to either install an additional

application to mount the drive or re-format it using a different le system.
