Chapter 1: Introduction

Overview

Thank you for choosing the Thecus IP Storage Server. The Thecus IP storage is an easy-to-use storage server that allows a dedicated approach to storing and distributing data on a network. Data reliability is ensured with RAID features that provide data security and recoveryover multiple Terabyte of storage are available using RAID 5 and RAID 6. Gigabit Ethernet ports enhance network efficiency, allowing Thecus IP storage to take over file management functions, increase application and data sharing and provide faster data response. The Thecus IP storage offers data mobility with a disk roaming feature that lets you swap working hard drives for use in other Thecus IP storage, securing the continuity of data in the event of hardware failure. The Thecus IP storage allows data consolidation and sharing between Windows (SMB/CIFS), UNIX/Linux, and Apple OS X environments. The Thecus IP storage’s user-friendly GUI supports multiple Languages.

Product Highlights

File Server
First and foremost, the Thecus IP storage allows you to store and share files over an IP network. With a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device, you can centralize your files and share them easily over your network. With the easy-to-use web­based interface, users on your network can access these files in a snap.
FTP Server
With the built-in FTP Server, friends, clients, and customers can upload and download files to your Thecus IP storage over the Internet with their favorite FTP programs. You can create user accounts so that only authorized users have access.
iTunes Server
With the built-in iTunes server capability, the Thecus IP storage enables digital music to be shared and played anywhere on the network!
Printer Server
With the Thecus IP storage’s Printer Server, you can easily share an IPP printer with other PCs connected to your network.
Multiple RAID
Thecus IP storage supports multiple RAID volumes on one system. So, you can create RAID 0 for your non-critical data, and create RAID 1,5,6,50 or 60 (depend on model) for mission-critical data. Create the RAID levels depending on your needs.
iSCSI Capability
Thecus IP storage is not only a file server, but it also supports iSCSI initiators. Your server can access Thecus IP storage as a direct-attached-storage over the LAN or Internet. There is no easier way to expand the capacity of your current application servers. All the storage needs can be centrally managed and deployed. This brings ultimate flexibility to users.
Superior Power Management
7
Thecus IP storage supports schedule power on/off. With this feature, administrator can set at what time to turn on or off the system. This feature is a big plus for people who want to conserve energy. Wake-On-LAN enables administrator to remotely turn on the system without even leaving their own seat.

Overview

Your Thecus IP storage is designed for easy installation. To help you get started, the following chapter will help you quickly get your Thecus IP storage up and running. Please read it carefully to prevent damaging your unit during installation.

Before You Begin

Before you begin, be sure to take the following precautions:
1. Read and understand the Safety Warnings outlined in the beginning of
the manual.
2. If possible, wear an anti-static wrist strap during installation to prevent
static discharge from damaging the sensitive electronic components on the Thecus IP storage.
3. Be careful not to use magnetized screwdrivers around the Thecus IP
storage’s electronic components.

Cable Connections

To connect the Thecus IP storage product to your network, follow the steps below:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from your network to the WAN/LAN1 port on
the back panel of the Thecus IP storage.
2. Connect the provided power adaptor and power cord into the power socket
on the back panel. Plug the other end of the cord into a surge protector socket.

Chapter 3: First Time Setup

Overview

Once the hardware is installed, physically connected to your network, and powered on, you can configure the Thecus IP storage so that it is accessible to your network users. There are two ways to set up your Thecus IP storage: using the Thecus Setup Wizard or the LCD display (Depend on models). Follow the steps below for initial software setup.

Thecus Setup Wizard

The handy Thecus Setup Wizard makes configuring Thecus IP storage a snap. To configure the Thecus IP storage using the Setup Wizard, perform the following steps:
1. Insert the installation CD into your CD-ROM drive (the host PC must be
connected to the network).
2. The Setup Wizard should launch automatically. If not, please browse your
CD-ROM drive and double click on Setup.exe.
3. The Setup Wizard will start and automatically detect all Thecus storage
devices on your network. If none are found, please check your connection and refer to Chapter 7: Troubleshooting for assistance.
4. Select the Thecus IP storage that you like to configure.
5. Login with the administrator account and password. The default account
and password are both “admin”.
16
6. Name your Thecus IP storage and configure the network IP address. If
your switch or router is configured as a DHCP Server, configuring the Thecus IP storage to automatically obtain an IP address is recommended. You may also use a static IP address and enter the DNS Server address manually.
7. Change the default administrator password.
8. Finished! Access the Thecus IP storage Web Administrator Interface by
pressing the Start Browser button. You can also configure another
17
Thecus IP storage at this point by clicking the Setup Other Device button.
NOTE
The Thecus Setup Wizard is designed for installation on systems running Windows XP/2000/vista/7/8/10 or Mac OSX or later. Users with other operating systems will need to install the Thecus Setup Wizard on a host machine with one of these operating systems before using the unit.
Press Exit to exit the wizard.

Typical Setup Procedure

From the Web Administration Interface, you can begin to setup your Thecus IP storage for use on your network. Setting up the Thecus IP storage typically follows the five steps outlined below.
For more on how to use the Web Administration Interface, see Chapter 4: Web Administration Interface.
Step 1: Network Setup
From the Web Administration Interface, you can configure the network settings of the Thecus IP storage for your network. You can access the Network menu from the control panel. For details on how to configure your network settings, refer to
Chapter 4: System Network.
Step 2: RAID Creation
Next, administrators can configure their preferred RAID setting and build their RAID volume. You can access RAID settings from the control panel of the Web Administration Interface by navigating to Storage Management > Disk and RAID.
For more information on configuring RAID, see Chapter 4: Storage > Disk and RAID Management.
Don’t know which RAID level to use? Find out more about the different RAID levels from Appendix B: RAID Basics.
Step 3: Create Local Users or Setup Authentication
Once the RAID is ready, you can begin to create local users for Thecus IP storage, or choose to setup authentication protocols such as Active Directory (AD).
18
For more on managing users, go to Chapter 4: Privilege.
For more information on configuring Active Directory, see Chapter 4: Privilege > ADS Support.
For information about the benefits of Active Directory, see Appendix D: Active
Directory Basics.
Step 4: Create Folders and Set Up ACLs
Once users are introduced into your network, you can begin to create various folders on the Thecus IP storage and control user access to each using Folder Access Control Lists.
More information on managing folders, see Chapter 4: Privilege > Share Folder.
To find out about configuring Folder Access Control Lists, see Chapter 4:
Privilege > Share Folder> Edit & ACL.
Step 5: Start Services
Finally, you can start to setup the different services of Thecus IP storage for the users on your network.
19

Chapter 4: System Administration

NOTE
Your computer’s network IP address must be on the same subnet as the
Thecus IP storage. If the Thecus IP storage has default IP address of
192.168.1.100, your managing PC IP address must be 192.168.1.x, where x is a number between 1 and 254, but not 100.
