1.1 Overview
Thank you for purchasing the ZyXEL UNS Series.
Making enterprise data storage perform more efficiently can be a daunting task. Adopting the right
storage solution will not only reduce the complexities involved in data management, but will also
maximize cost savings and increase the operational flexibility within the existing network
infrastructure. The UNS Series is a unified Network Attached Storage (NAS) unit that consolidates
both NAS and IP SAN characteristics, providing users with file level access and block level iSCSI
support for application such as email services or a database. The UNS Series features the following
file-based protocols: CIFS, NFS, AFP, FTP, and WebDAV for cross-platform file sharing, giving users
on diverse operating platforms access to shared files and directories. The UNS Series also supports
multi-level RAID technologies ensuring high data availability and integrity.
CHAPTER 1
Introduction
1.1.1 Feature Highlights
The UNS Series provides the following major benefits to your business:
• Cost-Effective Backup Solution
With the integration of Amazon S3's online data protection feature, you can easily backup safe
copies of your most important data into the claud, which ensures data safety.
• High Reliability
The Z File System (ZFS) of UNS Series provides a robust storage environment by eliminating any
data inconsistencies. As ZFS supports the self-healing feature, which enables the storage system to
detect silent data corruption and correct any error instantly. Furthermore it also offers snapshot, file
systems/volumes cloning, and anti-virus software, which enhances the overall performance of
disaster recovery processes.
• Optimized Storage Capacity
With the implementation of thin provisioning, the storage space can be conserved by assigning only
what is needed rather than allocating the full amount of space as requested. In addition, it features
data deduplication which enables better utilization of both network bandwidth and reduces the
amount of storage needed for any sets of files.

2.1.1 Accessing the NAS Web Configurator
The UNS Series storage system uses a web graphical user interface to operate. It supports most
common web browsers. Be sure to connect the LAN cable to the LAN1 port of the UNS Series
storage system.
The default IP setting is DHCP enabled. Please connect the LAN1 port to a network switch with an
Ethernet cable. If your network environment does not support DHCP configuration, connect the
LAN1 port directly to your notebook or PC to initialize the configuration.
Once the device fails to detect a DHCP configuration, a fixed IP 169.254.1.1 with a subnet mask of
255.255.255.0 is assigned to the device. Adjust the network port setting of your notebook or
desktop PC to the same subnet with a different IP such as 169.254.1.10. Open a web browser and
type 169.254.1.1 to connect to the web UI of UNS system.

18.1 Overview
This chapter provides information for Physical Disk in Storage Configuration.
18.1.1 Storage Configuration
The section covers a brief introduction to storage methods and management of storage pools and
disks.
The following is a reference guide to help you select a storage method for the various number of
disks supported on the UNS Series. Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) is a storage
method of storing data on multiple disks to provide a combination of greater capacity, reliability,
and/or speed.
CHAPTER 18
Physical Disk
Disk Striping (RAID Level 0)
RAID 0 provides a high level of disk I/O performance without fault tolerance. RAID 0 does not have
a minimum hard drive requirement.
Disk Mirroring (RAID Level 1)
RAID 1 provides high data reliability (100% data redundancy) at a reduced performance speed.
RAID 1 requires a minimum of two drives.
Independent Access Array with Rotating Parity (RAID Level 5)
RAID 5 distributes data across multiple disks while protecting the data against a single disk failure.
In the event of a failure of any disk member, the parity will be used to rebuild the contents of the
failed drive on the new one. RAID 5 requires a minimum of three drives.
Disk Striping with Double Distributed Parity (RAID Level 6)
RAID 6 distributes the data across multiple disks and protects against a two-disk failure. This RAID
level is designed for mission critical applications. RAID 5 and 6 display the same performance level.
RAID 6 requires a minimum of four drives.
Striping over RAID 5 volumes (RAID Level 50)
RAID 50 is a combination of RAID 5 and RAID 0 distributed parity (RAID 5) and data striping across
multiple disks (RAID 0). RAID 50 offers high reliability and transfer rate aggregation. RAID 50
requires a minimum of six drives.
Striping over RAID 6 volumes (RAID Level 60)
UNS Series User’s Guide 71
Chapter 18 Physical Disk
RAID 60 is a combination of RAID 6 and RAID 0 for double distributed parity (RAID 6). The data is
striped across multiple disks offering support for larger volumes. RAID 60 features the safest RAID
mode.

The following chapter provides information on Pool in Storage Configuration.
19.2 Pool
A storage pool or a pool is a set of managed hard disks that represents a logical unit of physical
storage. Inside the pool, all hard disks are organized into different levels of RAID sets. A pool can
be made of up of 512 RAID sets. Both iSCSI s (Volumes) and file systems are created based on the
pool. You can add spare disks to a storage pool for expanding the existing storage. Please refer to
the following figure for more information.
