Getting to Know Your NAS

1.1 Overview

Use the NAS as your own personal cloud. Here are some key features:

Start using ZyXEL NAS instantly with FindMe - Use ZyXEL FindMe to discover your NAS on your home network and get in control in under 15 seconds. Then do an easy installation with no need to install a NAS utility.

Access and share files from your NAS wherever you are - Using the ZyXEL Drive mobile app makes it easy.

Create a shared cloud space for people without a NAS - Provide your cloud space for your friends or family members when you share a folder from the NAS with the ZyXEL Drive mobile app. Your friends and family members don't need to purchase an additional NAS - just install the ZyXEL Drive mobile app on their mobile devices.

Protect your data from drive failure - The NAS's RAID 1 capability clones contents from one drive to another. If a drive is damaged or corrupted, you still have another drive to restore from or use.

Get up and running quickly with the easy-to-use interface - The ZyXEL NSM (NAS Station Management) 5.1 intelligent desktop provides a rich feature set of tools with an easy-to-understand GUI design to help you get things done quickly. The multitasking capability through a multi-window interface enables you to quickly get applications up and running.

Check your NAS while you're away - Even if you have several ZyXEL NAS devices, visit the myZyXELcloud Web portal from anywhere to see their health status at a glance.

Stream multimedia contents to your big screen TV - Bring your favorite multimedia files on the NAS to the big screen. ZyXEL zCloud app lets you play your favorite videos, music, or photos on your big screen with TV streaming devices such as Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Roku 3, and Amazon Fire TV; or directly on smart TVs like those from Samsung and LG.

Above is the NAS in a home network. Users back up and share data on the NAS. The media player plays the NAS's media files on the TV. A USB hard drive provides extra storage space and files are copied directly from the USB mass storage device to the NAS.

Place the NAS behind a firewall and/or IDP (Intrusion Detection and Prevention) device to protect it from attacks from the Internet.

Refer to the Quick Start Guide for hardware connections and how to install and remove hard drives from the disk trays.

Note: Turn off and disconnect the NAS before you install or remove the internal hard disk or disks.

		Off The NAS does not have a 1000 Mbps Ethernet connection.

1.3 Hard Disks

The NAS has internal hard disk bays. Install SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) hard disks. Note that the SATA hard disks are treated as internal or SATA volumes. Any hard disk connected to a USB port is considered an external or USB volume.

1.4 SD Card

Use up to a 128 GB SDXC card with the front panel SD card slot. The SD card slot works with the COPY/SYNC button (see Section 1.6 on page 17 for details).

1.5 Power Button

Use the power button on the front panel to turn the NAS on or off.

- Press the power button for one second to turn on the NAS.

Figure 2 Using the Power Button to Turn Off the NAS

graph LR
    A["Press"] --> B["1 Beep"]
    B --> C["2 Beeps"]
    B --> D["3 seconds"]
    B --> E["2 more seconds"]
    D --> F["Release for software shutdown"]
    E --> G["Release for hardware shutdown"]

• To have the NAS go through its normal software shutdown process and turn itself off, press the power button until you hear one beep (after about three seconds), then release it.
• To perform a hardware shutdown and have the NAS immediately turn itself off without going through the normal shutdown process, press the power button until you hear a second beep (after about five seconds), then release it.

1.6 COPY/SYNC Button

Use the COPY/ SYNC button on the front panel to copy or synchronize files between a connected USB or SD device and the NAS. See Section 17.10 on page 232 for more details on how to configure the copy/sync settings.

1.7 RESET Button

Use the RESET button on the rear panel to restore the NAS's default settings.

Figure 3 The RESET Button

graph LR
    A["Press"] --> B["1 Beep"]
    B --> C["2 Beeps"]
    C --> D["5 more seconds"]
    D --> E["Release to Clear All Settings"]
    F["Release to Reset IP Address Password"] --> B
    G["Release to Clear All Settings"] --> C

- Press the RESET button until you hear one beep (after about two seconds), then release it. You will hear one more beep after you release the button.

This resets the NAS's IP address and password to the default values.

- Press the RESET button until you hear two beeps. After the second beep, continue pressing the button for five more seconds, then release it. You will hear three quick beeps after you release the button.

This resets the NAS to the factory default configuration. All settings you have configured on the NAS, including IP address, password, user accounts, groups, and so on will be reset to the factory defaults.

The reset process does NOT affect the volume settings, nor data stored on the NAS.

You should periodically back up your configuration file to your computer (see Section 26.5 on page 310 for details about managing the NAS's configuration file). You could then restore your configuration in the event that you or someone else reset the NAS to the factory defaults.

Note: Keep the NAS in a secure location in order to prevent unauthorized reset of the device.

You may need to close and re-open the NAS Starter Utility to discover the NAS. This is because the NAS automatically re-acquires IP address information, so its IP address may change. If no IP address information is assigned, the NAS uses Auto-IP to assign itself an IP address and subnet mask. For example, you could connect the NAS directly to your computer. If the computer is also set to get an IP address automatically, the computer and the NAS will choose addresses for themselves and be able to communicate.

2.3 NAS Starter Utility

• The NAS Starter Utility broadcasts a request packet when you first run it. Each NAS has an NAS Starter Utility Agent that always listens and responds to requests from the NAS Starter Utility. The NAS Starter Utility receives the response packet that contains information, such as host name, IP, and so on.
• If you plan to use more than one NAS in your network, configure them with unique server names. This enables you to identify each NAS in the NAS Starter Utility screens.

2.3.1 NAS Seeker Screen

Use this screen to view the NASs in your network. The NAS's Server Name. The default is 'NAS' followed by the number of your model ('NAS540' for example). See Section 2.3.5 on page 23 for how to change it to a more recognizable one in your network.

Click the NAS Starter Utility icon on your desktop or in the Windows system tray to start the NAS Starter Utility. Alternatively you can click Start > Programs > ZyXEL > NAS Starter Utility.

Managing Users, Groups, and Shares

5.1 Managing Users, Groups, and Shares

• Use the Users screens (Chapter 22 on page 281) to create and manage administrator and user accounts.
• Use the Groups screens (Chapter 23 on page 287) to create and manage groups of user accounts. You can assign users to groups and grant individual groups access rights to specific shares.
• Use the Shares screens (Chapter 24 on page 291) to manage access permissions mapped to specific folders on a volume. A share is equivalent to the Windows concept of a shared folder. Map a share to a network drive for easy and familiar file transfer for Windows users.

Backing Up, Retrieving, and Syncing Files

6.1 About Backups

Backup before you need it. The NAS's multiple backup methods make it easy to follow the 3-2-1 backup rule:

• At least 3 copies of data
• Stored on at least 2 different media
• With at least 1 copy off-site.

6.2 Managing a USB Device and USB Backups

Use the USB ports and SD card slot to copy or synchronize files between a connected USB or SD device and the NAS. You can use the USB drive or SD card for off-site backups.

• Use the Copy/ Sync button on the front panel to copy or synchronize files between a connected USB or SD storage device and the NAS. See Section 17.10 on page 232 to configure the copy/ sync settings.
• Use the NAS's Backup screens (Section 27.3 on page 321) to schedule backups of files and folders on your NAS to a USB device or SD card. See Section 14.14.2 on page 194 for an example.

6.3 Remote Backups

Use the NAS's Backup screens (Section 27.3 on page 321) to schedule backups of files and folders on your NAS to another ZyXEL NAS or a NAS using rsync.

• See Section 14.14.1 on page 192 for an example of backing up to a remote NAS.
- Use the Restore screens (Section 27.4 on page 332) to restore previous backups based on the backup job. See Section 14.14.3 on page 196 for an example.
- If you deleted an archive backup job or the NAS or the RAID array containing the backup job failed, you can restore by backup files. See Section 14.14.3 on page 196 for an example.

6.4 Internal Backups

Use the NAS's Backup screens (Section 27.3 on page 321) to schedule backups of files and folders on your NAS to another folder on the NAS.

• See Section 14.14.2 on page 194 for an example of how to back up the NAS to another NAS.
- Use the Restore screens (Section 27.4 on page 332) to restore previous backups based on the backup job. See Section 14.14.3 on page 196 for an example.

6.5 Cloud Backups

Use the NAS with cloud services for off-site backups and synchronization.

• Use Dropbox (Chapter 20 on page 274) to log the NAS into your Dropbox account to easily move files to your NAS and have the NAS download *.torrent files.
• Use Memopal (Section 18.7 on page 254) to back up files on the NAS to your Memopal online backup and storage account.

6.6 Synchronizing Files

Besides backups, the NAS also provides pure synchronization solutions.

Note: Synchronization is not backup. When you delete a file in one location, synchronization deletes it in the other location. Do not store your only copy of a document in a synchronized folder.

• Use the GoogleDriveClient package (Section 18.8 on page 256) to two-way synchronize local NAS folders and Google Drive accounts. Changes in the Google Drive account appear in the local sync folder and changes in the local sync folder appear in the Google Drive account.
• Use the ownCloud package (Section 18.6 on page 251) to host your own private cloud on the NAS. The ownCloud package lets the NAS work as an ownCloud server so computers and mobile devices using the ownCloud client can access, sync, and share files across devices.

PART I

Web Desktop at a Glance

7.1 Overview

This chapter describes how to access the NAS web configurator and provides an overview of its screens. The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy NAS setup and management using an Internet browser.

Use Internet Explorer 11.0.9, Mozilla Firefox 31.0, Safari 5.1.7, Google Chrome 37.0.2, or later versions of these browsers. The recommended screen resolution is 1440 by 900 pixels or higher.

In order to use the web configurator you need to allow:

• Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
• JavaScript (enabled by default).

7.2 Accessing the NAS Web Configurator

1 Make sure your NAS is properly connected and that your computer is in the same subnet as the NAS (refer to the Quick Start Guide or the appendices).
2 Open your browser and type in the server name of the NAS. The default is "nas" followed by the number of your model ("nas540" for example). Configure the server name of your NAS using the Network Configuration screen (Section 2.3.5 on page 23) of the NAS Starter Utility.

These volumes have higher access performance than volumes on a disk group but are less flexible in regards to size.Details include the currently used percentage of the volume.Shared Folder (Normal) - green on the circle represents the volume's percentage of used capacity in a healthy state.LUN (Normal) - blue on the circle represents the iSCSI LUN's percentage of used capacity.Degraded - orange on the circle represents the volume's percentage of used capacity in a degraded state. Degraded means one or more disks has failed but you can still replace a faulty disk to recover the volume.Crashed/ Full - a red exclamation point represents the volume is in a down state. Down means you cannot recover the volume. Full means the volume has run out of space.Available - gray on the circle represents the volume's percentage of unused capacity.This section also displays the volume's used capacity, and total capacity available.
Volume (for External Volumes)	Details include the currently used percentage of the volume.Used - green on the circle represents the volume's percentage of used capacity in a healthy state.Full - a red exclamation point represents the volume has run out of space.Unformatted - purple on the circle represents the connected USB storage device is not formatted with a file system.Unsupported - violet on the circle represents the connected USB storage device uses a file system the NAS does not support.Available - gray on the circle represents the volume's percentage of unused capacity.This section also displays the volume's used capacity, and total capacity available.
Volume on Disk Group	This section shows the current storage usage for each volume built on top of a disk group. You can expand a volume's size after creation if the disk group has unallocated space. You can also expand a disk group by adding hard disks.

8.3 Internal Storage

A volume is a basic storage space on the NAS. To store data on the NAS, you must create at least one volume. Your NAS supports the following:

• Internal volumes (built on the hard disks installed in the NAS)
• External volumes (built on the external storage devices attached to the NAS)

Internal Volumes

Table 7 Internal Volumes

OPTION DESCRIPTION
Volume Allocates all	the available space to the volume.Provides better performance.
Volume on Disk Group	Allows you to create multiple volumes on a disk group.Allows you to customize the size of a volume.

RAID Types

The following table describes RAID types.

Note: RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and the hot spare option apply to 4-bay NAS devices.

Table 8 RAID Types

RAID TYPE	NO. OF HDD	NO. OF HDD ALLOWED TO FAIL	DESCRIPTION CAPACITY
Basic 1	0 Use Basic	with one disk. It has	no fault tolerance.	1 x (HDD size)
JBOD 2-	4 0 Use JBOD	with two or more	disks for maximum capacity. This is just a collection of disks with no fault tolerance.	sum of HDD sizes
RAID 0 2	-4 0 Use RAID 0	with two or four	ur disks for maximum speed and no fault tolerance.	sum of HDD sizes
RAID 1	2-4	(No. of HDD) -1	Use RAID 1 to create an exact copy of data on one disk to a second disk. Use this with two to four disks to mirror primary data to another disk(s) with high performance.You can add a hot spare to a 2-disk RAID 1.	Smallest HDD size
RAID 5 3	-4 1 Use RAID 5	with three or four	disks to balance performance and hard disk capacity usage with data protection in case of disk failure.You can add a hot spare to a 3-disk RAID 5.	(No. of HDD – 1) x (smallest HDD size)
RAID 6 4	2 Use RAID 6	with four disks for more data protection in case of disk failure.		(No. of HDD – 2) x (smallest HDD size)
RAID 10	4	1 HDD in each RAID 1 group	Use RAID 10 with four disks to get better performance than RAID 6, with slightly less data protection.	(No. of HDD / 2) x (smallest HDD size)

Repair Volumes or Disk Groups

If a hard disk in a RAID 1 with a hot spare or a RAID 5 with a hot spare fails, the NAS automatically uses the hot spare to re-build the volume or disk group. Later you can replace the failed hard disk and add the new disk as a hot spare.

A hard disk failure in a RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, or RAID 10 degrades the volume or disk group. Replace the failed disk and use the Internal Storage screen's Repair link to repair the volume.

Change RAID Type

You can change the following RAID types without losing stored data. This can help you manage your storage capacity as you add more disks.

Table 9 Internal Volumes

RAID TYPE WHAT YOU CAN CHANGE IT TO
Basic RAID 1
RAID 1 RAID 1 with a hot spare	or RAID 5
RAID 5 RAID 5 with a hot spare	or RAID 6

Expand Volumes or Disk Groups

As your content grows, you can do the following to expand the storage capacity of a volume or disk group without losing stored data.

Table 10 Expand Volumes and Disk Groups

EXPANSION METHOD	DESCRIPTION
Using unallocated disk space	You can add more storage space to a volume if there is still some space unallocated on the same disk group.
Adding disks You	can add one or more disks to a JBOD, RAID 1 or RAID 5.The hard disk you want to add must have capacity equal to or greater than the smallest disk in the volume or disk group.
Replacing with larger disks	You can replace smaller disks in a RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 6 with larger disks.Replace disks one-by-one.Replace the smallest disk in the volume or disk group first.After replacing a disk, you must use the Internal Storage screen's Manage link to repair the volume.Wait for the repair process to complete before you replace another disk.

Use the Volume screen to configure and manage internal volumes. From the Internal Storage screen, click Volume to open the screen as shown.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Repair RAID Select this to repair a degraded RAID volume.
Expand the volume by adding disk(s)	Select this to add one or more disks to a JBOD, RAID 1 or RAID 5 volume. You can add a disk to increase an array's capacity or to use as a hot-spare (standby). When you add a disk to an existing array, you do not have to re-create shares, access rights and so on as you would if you create a new volume.Note: This option is available when a disk has not been allocated to any volume or disk group yet.
Expand the volume with unallocated disk space	Select this to add more storage space to a volume if there is still some space unallocated on the same disk group. Select this if the NAS fails to expand a volume by adding disk(s) and the final volume capacity is not as expected. For example, you want to expand a 1 TB RAID 1 volume by adding two more 1 TB disks. The volume size should be 2 TB after expansion, however, you just see 1 TB. Use this option to fix the issue.

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 20 S.M.A.R.T Info

LABEL DESCRIPTION
ID This is the identification number used to tag a hard disk attribute.This is standard across all S.M.A.R.T-enabled storage devices. However it depends on the storage vendor which attributes it will allow S.M.A.R.T to diagnose.
Attribute	This refers to an attribute of the hard disk that S.M.A.R.T can assess. Attributes describe the hard disk's physical state, performance, wear-and-tear, and so on.
Value	This is a value that corresponds to the Raw Data. Compare this with the Threshold.S.M.A.R.T compresses the raw value(s) into a digit from 1 to 253, where 1 indicates the worst scenario while 253 indicates the best scenario.The values 100 or 200 usually represent the mean or normal value.
Worst This is the lowest value attained by the hard disk since S.M.A.R.T started its assessment of the hard disk.
Threshold This is the attribute's threshold value. If the attribute's current normalized value is less than or equal to the threshold, the attribute has failed. An attribute value close to or below the threshold indicates the hard drive is no longer reliable.
Type This shows S.M.A.R.T's assessment of the hard disk.Old_age indicates end-of-product life from old-age (normal wearing out) if the attribute value is less than or equal to the threshold.Pre-fail indicate imminent hard drive failure if the attribute value is less than or equal to the threshold.Note that just because an attribute is of the Pre-fail type does not mean your hard drive is ready to fail. It only means this if the current normalized value of the attribute is less than or equal to the threshold.

Table 20 S.M.A.R.T Info

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Updated	This indicates when the hard drive updates the value for this attribute. • Always means the hard drive updates this attribute during normal operation and during offline activities. • Offline means the hard drive only updates this attribute when no one is accessing the hard drive.
When Failed This column indicates when (if ever) the attribute failed. An attribute has failed if the normalized value is less than or equal to the threshold. • -: This displays if the attribute is not failing now and has never failed in the past. • FAILING_NOW: This displays if the attribute's current normalized value is less than or equal to the threshold. • In_the_past: This displays if the attribute's current normalized value is greater than the threshold but the worst recorded value is less than or equal to the threshold.
Raw Data	This is the attribute's unprocessed raw data. These values show exact amounts of time or numbers of attempts or errors. The meaning to the raw values is specific to the hard drive manufacturer. Table 42 on page 156 has some information about whether a higher or lower individual raw S.M.A.R.T. attribute value is better.

8.3.6.3 S.M.A.R.T Attributes

The following table describes some common S.M.A.R.T. attributes. If a higher or lower raw attribute value is better, it is indicated in the BETTER column. Since S.M.A.R.T. attributes and their definitions vary by manufacturer, refer to the hard drive manufacturer for details about the attributes your hard drive supports.

Table 21 S.M.A.R.T. Attributes

ID	ATTRIBUTE NAME	BETTER	DESCRIPTION
01	Read Error Rate	Low	Shows the rate of hardware read errors. If this is not zero, there is a problem with the disk surface or the read/write heads.
02 Throughput Performance		High	This is the hard drive's general (overall) throughput performance. A decreasing value indicates a problem.
03 Spin-Up Time Low This is the average number of milliseconds the hard drive took for spindle spin up (from zero RPM to fully operational).
04	Start/Stop Count		The total number of spindle start and stop cycles.
05 Reallocated Sectors Count		Low Total	number of reallocated sectors on the hard drive. When the hard drive detects a read/write/verification error, it marks the sector as “reallocated” and transfers the data to a specially reserved (spare) area. The process is also known as remapping with “reallocated” sectors known as remaps. The more sectors the hard drive has to reallocate, the slower read and write speeds become.
06 Read Channel Margin			This is the margin of a channel when it reads data.
07	Seek Error Rate	Low	This is the rate of the magnetic heads’ seek errors. A failure in the mechanical positioning system, such as servo damage or a thermal widening of the disk, results in seek errors. An increasing number of seek errors indicate the condition of the disk surface and the mechanical subsystem are worsening.
08 Seek Time Performance		High This is an average performance indicator for the seek operations of the magnetic heads. Mechanical subsystem problems cause this value to decrease.
09	Power-On Hours (POH)	Low This is	how many hours the hard drive has been in a power-on state. The raw value lists the total number of hours (or minutes, or seconds depending on the manufacturer).
10	Spin Retry Count	Low	This is the total number of spin start retry attempts. This is the number of attempts to spin up to fully operational speed the hard drive has made when the first attempt did not succeed. An increase in this value is an indicator of hard disk mechanical subsystem problems.
11	Recalibration Retries	High This is	the number of times recalibration was requested when the first attempt did not succeed. A decrease in this value is an indicator of hard disk mechanical subsystem problems.
12	Device Power Cycle Count		This is the number of times the hard drive has gone through a full power on and power off.
13	Soft Read Error Rate	Low This is	the number of uncorrected read errors the hard drive has reported. If this is not zero, back up your data.
190	Airflow Temperature	Low This indicates the temperature of the airflow measured by a Western Digital hard drive.
190	Temperature Difference from 100	High This indicates the value of 100 - the temperature in degrees Celsius. Manufacturers can set a minimum threshold that corresponds to a maximum temperature.
191	G-sense error rate	Low This is the number of mistakes caused by impact loads.
192	Power-off Retract Count	Low This is how many times the heads are loaded off the media.
193	Load/Unload Cycle	Low This is the number of load and unload cycles into head landing zone position.
194	Temperature Low	This is the hard drive's internal temperature.
195	Hardware ECC Recovered	High This is the time between ECC (Error Correction Code)-corrected errors.
196	Reallocation Event Count	Low This is the total number of reallocation (remap) operations. The raw value is the total attempts to move data from reallocated sectors to a spare area. Successful and unsuccessful attempts are both included.
197	Current Pending Sector Count	Low This is the number of unstable sectors awaiting reallocation. If the sector is later successfully written or read, this value decreases and reallocation is not performed. Only failed write attempts cause a reallocation, not read errors. This can be difficult to test since only direct I/O writes to the disk cause reallocations, not cached writes.
198	Uncorrectable Sector Count	Low This is the number of errors reading or writing a sector that were not correctable. An increase in this value is an indicator of disk surface defects or mechanical subsystem problems.
199	UltraDMA CRC Error Count	Low This is the number of data transfer errors through the interface cable according to the ICRC (Interface Cyclic Redundancy Check).
200	Write Error Rate / Multi-Zone Error Rate	Low This is the total number of errors in writing sectors.
201	Soft Read Error Rate	Low	This is the number of read/write head off-track errors. If the value is not zero, make a backup.
202	Data Address Mark Errors	Low This is the number of data address mark errors. This could also be a different, manufacturer-specific attribute.
203	Run Out Cancel Low	This is the number of ECC (Error Correction Code) errors.
204	Soft ECC Correction	Low This is the number of errors corrected by software ECC (Error Correction Code).
205	Thermal Asperity Rate (TAR)	Low This is the number of thermal asperity errors. Thermal asperity is a read signal spike caused by sensor temperature rise due to touching the disk surface or contaminant particles.
206	Flying Height		This is the height of the hard drive's read/write heads above the disk surface.
207	Spin High Current		This is the quantity of high current used to spin up the drive.
208	Spin Buzz This is the number of buzz routines to spin up the drive. When the arm holding the read/write heads is stuck, the motor driving it tries to oscillate the arm to free it. This causes an audible vibration.
209	Offline Seek Performance		This is the hard drive's seek performance during offline operations. Offline operations are tests the drive does itself as opposed to those that an external diagnostic tool has it do. Seek performance is how quickly the drive moves from track to track.
220	Disk Shift Low This is how far the disk has moved relative to the spindle (this kind of shift is usually due to shock).
221	G-Sense Error Rate	Low This is the number of errors that have resulted from external vibration and shock.
222	Loaded Hours This is how long the hard drive has operated under data load (this requires movement of the magnetic head armature).
223	Load/Unload Retry Count		This is how many time the magnetic head has changed position.
224	Load Friction	Low	This is resistance caused by friction in mechanical parts during operation.
225	Load/Unload Cycle Count	Low This is the total number of load cycles.
226	Load 'In'-time		This is the total time that the magnetic heads actuator has had a load (not been in the parking area).
227	Torque Amplification Count	Low This is the number of attempts to compensate for variations in platter speed.
228	Power-Off Retract Cycle	Low This is how many times the magnetic armature was automatically retracted because the power was cut.
230	GMR Head Amplitude		This is the amplitude of thrashing (or the distance of repetitive forward and reverse head motion).
231	Temperature Low This is the hard drive's temperature.
240	Head Flying Hours		This is the total time that the head has been positioning.
250	Read Error Retry Rate	Low This is the number of errors in reading from the disk.

8.4 iSCSI

The NAS supports the iSCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface) standard and can serve as an iSCSI target. When the iSCSI initiator is successfully connected to an iSCSI target over an IP

network, data transmission and storage management can be processed through the network. In other words, you can access and manage the target the same way as a locally attached drive.

In the following example, a branch office has a NAS named NAS1. You want to expand your data storage capacity by accessing an iSCSI LUN (Logical Unit Number) volume called VOL1 on NAS1 over the Internet. Your computer is the iSCSI initiator and the NAS is the iSCSI target. When the initiator is successfully connected to the target, your computer can use VOL1 on the NAS as its own internal storage.

The configuration steps are as follows:

1 Create an iSCSI LUN Volume for the iSCSI target in NAS1.

2 Configure NAS1 as an iSCSI target.

8.6 Technical Reference

This section contains background on JBOD and the RAID levels used on the NAS.

JBOD

• Minimum number of disks: 1
• Total capacity: Sum of the member disks
- Advantages: Maximum storage capacity, especially for disks of mixed sizes. Flexibility (you can add disks to the JBOD
- Disadvantages: Not as fast or reliable as RAID.

JBOD allows you to combine multiple physical disk drives into a single virtual one, so they appear as a single large disk. JBOD can be used to turn several different-sized drives into one big drive. For

example, JBOD could convert 100 GB, 200 GB, 250 GB, and 500 GB drives into one large logical drive of 1050 GB. Since data isn't striped across disks, if one disk fails, you should just lose the data on that disk (but you may lose data in the whole array depending on the nature of the disk failure). You can add disks to the JBOD array later (using the Add disk to JBOD feature) and even remove them so JBOD offers a lot of flexibility. However JBOD read performance is not as good as RAID as only one disk can be read at a time and they must be read sequentially. The following figure shows three disks in a single JBOD array. Data is not written across disks but written sequentially to each disk until it's full.

Table 31 JBOD

A1 B1 C1
A2 B2 C2
A3 B3 C3
A4 B4 C4
DISK 1 DISK 2 DISK 3

RAID 0

RAID 0 spreads data across two or more disks (data striping) with no mirroring nor parity for data redundancy, so if one disk fails the entire array will be lost. The major benefit of RAID 0 is performance. The following figure shows two disks in a single RAID 0 array. Data can be written and read across disks simultaneously for faster performance.

Table 32 RAID 0

A1 A2
A3 A4
A5 A6
A7 A8
DISK 1 DISK 2

RAID 0 capacity is the size of the sum of the capacities of the disks in the RAID 0. For example, if you have four disks of sizes 1 TB, 2 TB, 3 TB and 2 TB respectively in one RAID 0 array, then the maximum capacity is 8 TB.

Typical applications for RAID 0 are non-critical data (or data that changes infrequently and is backed up regularly) requiring high write speed such as audio, video, graphics, games and so on.

RAID 1

RAID 1 creates an exact copy (or mirror) of a set of data on another disk. This is useful when data backup is more important than data capacity. The following figure shows two disks in a single RAID

1 array with mirrored data. Data is duplicated across two disks, so if one disk fails, there is still a copy of the data.

Table 33 RAID 1

A1 A1
A2 A2
A3 A3
A4 A4
DISK 1 DISK 2

As RAID 1 uses mirroring and duplexing, a RAID 1 array needs an even number of disks (two or four for the NAS).

RAID 1 capacity is limited to the size of the smallest disk in the RAID array. For example, if you have two disks of sizes 150 GB and 200 GB respectively in one RAID 1 array, then the maximum capacity is 150 GB and the remaining space (50 GB) is unused.

Typical applications for RAID 1 are those requiring high fault tolerance without need of large amounts of storage capacity or top performance, for example, accounting and financial data, small database systems, and enterprise servers.

RAID 6

RAID 6 can tolerate two simultaneous drive failures by calculating dual distributed parity data on striped data across disks. Dual parity provides extra data protection, however, it is slower to write than most other RAID levels.

RAID 6 uses parity to store redundant data on space equal to the size of two disks for later data recovery. Therefore, on a RAID 6 array, only 50% of the space is available as usable capacity. If you have four disks of sizes 1TB, 1TB, 2TB, 2TB respectively in one RAID 6 array, then the maximum capacity of the array is the capacity of the smallest drive (1TB, 1TB, 2TB, 2TB) * (Number of disks - 2) = 1TB * (4-2) = 2TB. The remaining space (2 TB) is unused.

DISK 1 DISK 2 DISK 3 DISK 4

RAID 10

RAID 10 (RAID 1+0) is a nested RAID where two RAID 1 arrays are stored on the physical disks with a RAID 0 array on top. It is a stripe of mirrors. RAID 1 provides redundancy while RAID 0 boosts performance. The following figure shows two disks in two RAID 1 arrays. Data is duplicated across two disks, so if one disk fails, there is still a copy of the data. These two arrays are configured as a single RAID 0 array for faster performance.

Table 35 RAID 10

A1 A1 A2 A2
A3 A3 A4 A4
A5 A5 A6 A6
A7 A7 A8 A8
DISK 1 DISK 2 DISK 3 DISK 4

Typical applications for RAID 10 are those requiring both high performance and reliability such as enterprise servers and high-end moderate-sized database systems. RAID 10 is often used in place of RAID 1 or RAID 5 by those requiring higher performance. It may be used instead of RAID 1 for applications requiring more capacity.

RAID 5

RAID 5 provides the best balance of capacity and performance while providing data redundancy. It provides redundancy by striping data across three disks and keeps the parity information (AP) on the fourth disk (in each stripe). In case of disk failure, data can be recovered from the surviving disks using the parity information. When you replace the failed disk, the reconstructed data is written onto the new disk. Re-synchronize the array to have it return to its original state. The following example shows data stripped across three disks (A1 to A3 in the first strip for example) with parity information (AP) on the fourth disk.

Table 36 RAID 5

A1 A2 A3 AP
B1 B2 BP B3
C1 CP C2 C3
DP D1 D2 D3
DISK 1 DISK 2 DISK 3 DISK 4

The capacity of a RAID 5 array is the smallest disk in the RAID set multiplied by one less than the number of disks in the RAID set. For example, if you have four disks of sizes 150 GB, 150 GB, 200

GB and 250 GB respectively in one RAID 5 array, then the maximum capacity is 450 GB (3 * 150 GB, the smallest disk size) and the remaining space (300 GB) is unused.

Typical applications for RAID 10 are transaction processing, relational database applications, enterprise resource planning and other business systems. For write-intensive applications, RAID 1 or RAID 1+0 are probably better choices, as the performance of RAID 5 will begin to substantially decrease in a write-heavy environment.

Hot-spare

A RAID 1 or RAID 5 array with a hot-spare operates as a three-disk RAID 1 or RAID 5 array with the fourth disk on standby. The standby disk automatically comes into play if a disk in the array fails. The advantage of a hot-spare is that if a disk fails, then the array resynchronizes automatically with the standby disk and operates at healthy array speed after the resynchronization.

Note: You need four hard disks installed to use RAID 10, RAID 5 or RAID 5 with hot-spare.

RAID and Data Protection

If a hard disk fails and you're using a RAID 1, RAID 10, or RAID 5 array then your data will still be available (but at degraded speeds until you replace the hard disk that failed and re-synchronize the array). However, RAID cannot protect against file corruption, virus attacks, files incorrectly deleted or modified, or the NAS malfunctioning.

10.1 Overview

This chapter discusses the Control Panel screens. Use the Control Panel screens to configure network settings and upload firmware.

10.2 What You Can Do

• Use the TCP/IP screen (Section 10.4 on page 107) to configure the NAS's TCP/IP network connection settings such as the teaming mode and IP addresses.
• Use the PPPoE screen (Section 10.4.2.2 on page 111) to configure PPPoE settings for a direct Internet connection.
• Use the UPnP Port Mapping screen (Section 10.5 on page 113) to automatically configure your Internet gateway's firewall and Network Address Translation (NAT) to allow access to the NAS from the Internet.
• Use the Terminal screen (Section 10.6 on page 119) to enable or disable Telnet and SSH access.
• Use the DyDNS screen (Section 10.7 on page 120) to configure the domain name settings of your NAS.
• Use the FW Upgrade screen (Section 10.8 on page 122) to upload new firmware.

10.3 What You Need to Know

IP Address

The NAS needs an IP address to communicate with other devices on your network. The NAS can get an IP address automatically if you have a device on your network that gives them out. Or you can assign the NAS a static (fixed) IP address.

DNS Server Address

A DNS (Domain Name System) server maps domain names (like www.zyxel.com) to their corresponding numerical IP addresses. This lets you use domain names to access web sites without having to know their IP addresses. The NAS can receive the IP address of a DNS server automatically (along with the NAS's own IP address). You can also manually enter a DNS server IP address in the NAS.

PPPoE

Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) allows the NAS to establish a direct Internet connection if you do not have a router. PPPoE is a dial-up connection. You need a username and password from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to set up the connection.

10.4 TCP/IP Screens

Use the TCP/IP screens to have the NAS use a dynamic or static IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, PPPoE and DNS servers, and to test the network connection.

10.4.1 Configuring General TCP/IP Settings

Click Control Panel > Network > TCP/IP > General Settings in the navigation panel to open the following screen. This screen allows you to configure the default gateway and DNS server.

10.5 UPnP Port Mapping Screen

Use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) port mapping to allow access from the WAN to services you select on the NAS. It is recommended that you place the NAS behind an Internet gateway firewall device to protect the NAS from attacks from the Internet. Many such Internet gateways use UPnP to simplify peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. UPnP can automatically configure the Internet gateway's firewall and Network Address Translation (NAT) to allow access to the NAS from the Internet.

Figure 67 UPnP for FTP Access

In the above example, UPnP creates a firewall rule and NAT port forwarding mapping to send FTP traffic (using TCP port number 21) from the public IP address a.b.c.d to the NAS's private IP address of 192.168.1.20.

Use the NAS's UPnP Port Mapping screen to configure the UPnP settings your Internet gateway uses to allow access from the WAN (Internet) to services you select on the NAS. You can also set which port Internet users need to use in order to access a specific service on the NAS.

Note: To use UPnP port mapping, your Internet gateway must have UPnP enabled.

If your Internet gateway supports Port Address Translation (PAT is sometimes included with a port forwarding feature), you can have the Internet users use a different TCP port number from the one the NAS uses for the service.

Figure 68 UPnP Port Address Translation for FTP Example

graph LR
    A["Database 192.168.1.20"] -->|TCP: 21| B["Router"]
    B -->|TCP: 2100| C["Internet"]
    C --> D["Computer"]

In the above example, the Internet gateway uses PAT to accept Internet user FTP sessions on port 2100, translate them to port 21, and forward them to the NAS.

10.5.1 UPnP and the NAS's IP Address

It is recommended that the NAS use a static IP address (or a static DHCP IP address) if you will allow access to the NAS from the Internet. The UPnP-created NAT mappings keep the IP address the NAS had when you applied your settings in the UPnP Port Mapping screen. They do not automatically update if the NAS's IP address changes.

Note: WAN access stops working if the NAS's IP address changes.

For example, if the NAS's IP address was 192.168.1.33 when you applied the UPnP Port Mapping screen's settings and the NAS later gets a new IP address of 192.168.1.34 through DHCP, WAN access stops working because the Internet gateway still tries to forward traffic to IP address 192.168.1.33. Since you can no longer access the NAS from the WAN, you would have to access the NAS from the LAN and re-apply your UPnP Port Mapping screen settings to update the Internet gateway's UPnP port mappings.

    D --> E["Computer"]

10.5.2 UPnP and Security

UPnP's automated nature makes it easier to use than manually configuring firewall and NAT rules, but it is also less secure. Using UPnP may make your network more susceptible to snooping and hacking attacks.

10.5.3 The NAS's Services and UPnP

This section introduces the NAS's services which an Internet gateway can use UPnP to allow access to and from the Internet.

CIFS (Windows File Sharing)

Common Internet File System (CIFS) is a standard protocol supported by most operating systems in order to share files across the network. Using UPnP port mapping for CIFS allows users to connect from the Internet and use programs like Windows Explorer to access the NAS's shares to copy files from the NAS, delete files on the NAS, or upload files to the NAS from the Internet.

If you configure UPnP port mapping to allow CIFS access from the WAN but cannot get it to work, you may also have to configure the Internet gateway to also allow NetBIOS traffic. See Section 16.3 on page 205 for more on CIFS.

FTP

File Transfer Protocol is a standard file transfer service used on the Internet. Using UPnP port mapping for FTP allows remote users to use FTP from the Internet to access the NAS's shares. A user with read and write access to a share can copy files from the share, delete files from the share, or upload files to the share. See Section 17.4 on page 215 for more on FTP. If you use UPnP to allow FTP access from the WAN, you may want to use a different WAN port number (instead of the default of port 21) to make it more secure. Remember to tell the remote users to use the custom port number when using FTP to access the NAS.

HTTP (Web Configurator)

You can use UPnP port mapping to allow access to the NAS's management screens. If you use UPnP to allow web configurator access from the WAN, you may want to use a different WAN port number (instead of the default of port 80) to make it more secure. Remember to use the custom port number when accessing the NAS's web configurator from the Internet.

HTTP (Web Published Shares)

This is the NAS's web publishing feature that lets people access files using a web browser without having to log into the Web Configurator. Use UPnP port mapping to allow access to these files from the Internet without having to enter a user name or password. See Section 17.8 on page 230 for more on web publishing.

10.5.4 UPnP Router

UPnP allows access to your NAS through a UPnP router. Click Network > UPnP Port Mapping > UPnP Router to check if the NAS has found a UPnP router on the network.

11.2 File Browser

Click File Browser on the Desktop to open the following screen in a new tab. Use the file browsing screens to play, open, upload, and download files. A share is a set of user access permissions for a specific folder on a volume (gives someone access to a folder). It is equivalent to the Windows concept of a shared folder, but the access rights are independent of the folder (you configure the share and the folder separately). You can map a share to a network drive for easy and familiar file transfer for Windows users.

• A folder icon with a hand indicates a share.
• The administrator owns and manages the public shares.
• Double-click a media file to open it. Double-click other types of files to be able to save them.
• Click to the right of a file or folder name to select it.
• Use the [SHIFT] key to select a range of entries. Hold down the [CTRL] key to select multiple individual entries.
• Drag and drop files to open a screen that lets you choose whether to copy or move them.
• You can upload files of up to 2 GB in size.
• You can download individual files of up to 4 GB in size with Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer 7 and later or up to 2 GB in size with Internet Explorer 6.

11.2.2 Share and Folder Names

The name can only contain the following characters:

- Alphanumeric (A-z, 0-9) and Unicode.

The NAS allows FTP access to shares, folders or files with names encoded in the UTF-8 (8-bit UCS/Unicode Transformation Format) format. So your FTP client must support UTF-8 in order to access shares, folders or files on the NAS with Unicode names.

• Spaces
• _ [underscores]
  • . [ periods ]
• [ d a s h e s ]

Other limitations include:

• All leading and trailing spaces are removed automatically.
• Multiple spaces within names are converted to a single space.
• Share names must be unique (they cannot be the same as other share names).
• The NAS creates automatic volume names for external (USB) disk volumes. These are a type of share, so the share name you configure cannot conflict with the external (USB) disk volume names. "ExtVol1" or "ExtVol2" are examples of external (USB) disk volume names.
• Folder names must be unique (they cannot be the same as other folder names).
• The minimum character length of a name is one character, that is a name cannot be blank.
• The maximum character length of share name is 239 characters.
• Unicode is supported for share names, although your FTP client must support UTF-8. Full support should be available in all Windows versions after Windows 2000.

14.6 File Sharing Tutorials

The following sections cover using the NAS for file sharing. This chapter assumes you have already followed the Quick Start Guide instructions to perform initial setup and configuration (so you have a working volume). See the rest of this User's Guide for details on configuring the NAS's various screens.

14.6.1 Creating a User Account

Jimmy wants to create accounts for his sons Bob and Kevin. This is how he would do it.

1 Go to the advanced administration screens.

2 Click Sharing > Users to open the Users screen. Then click Add User.

Users Add User Search Edit User Delete User Info Selected User(s) Display Number 20 Go to Page 3 Page 1 Of 1 User Type Username Jimmy John admin

3 Configure the screen as follows and write down the username and password to give to Bob. If the username and password are the same as Bob's Windows login, Bob will not need to enter a username and password when he logs into his share from his computer. Set the Account Type to User so Bob doesn't get to configure the whole NAS. Click Apply to create the account.

Add User General Settings Quota (per volume) Group Membership Username Bob New Password Password (Confirm) Account Type Administrator User Apply Cancel

4 The account now displays in the Users screen.

Page 1 Of 1
User Type	Username
	Bob
	Jimmy
	John
	admin

Now that Jimmy has created Bob's account, he can go through the steps again to create another account for Kevin. After both accounts are created, he can go to Section 14.6.2 on page 156 to create shares for Bob and Kevin.

14.6.2 Creating a Share

Suppose Jimmy has already created separate accounts for his sons Bob and Kevin. Now Jimmy wants to create a share for each son. He also wants to make sure that each son can only access his own share (to keep them from deleting each other's files). This is how he would do it.

1 In the NAS's administration web configurator screens, click Shares > Add Share. Click Add Share to create a new share.

Status	Share Type	Share Name	Share Path	Share Owner	Permission Type
	Auto	JetFlash-Transcend-16GB-8-07-1	JetFlash-Transcend-16GB-8-07-...	admin	Public
	Predefined	video	Volume1/video	admin	Public
	Predefined	photo	Volume1/photo	admin	Public
	Predefined	music	Volume1/music	admin	Public
	Built-in	admin	Volume1/admin	admin	Private

2 Specify a name for the share and select which volume it should be on. Configure the screen as follows. Then click Edit.

Add Share Share Name Bob Volume Volume1 ( 3.58 TB ) Make this share owned by admin Enable This Share Enable Recycle Bin Publish this share to Media Server Publish this share to Web Share Access Advanced Edit Apply Cancel

3 Configure the screen as follows to give Bob full access right to the share. Then click Apply to create the share.

Share Access Configuration Available User(s)/Group(s) Jimmy John anonymous-ftp everyone children family Authority : Full Bob admin Note: You may select multiple users/groups by using Ctrl + Click. Apply Cancel

Now that Jimmy has created Bob's share, he can go through the steps again to create another share for Kevin.

14.6.3 Creating a Group

After creating user accounts for Bob and Kevin, Jimmy wants to create a group for his sons and another one for the parents. Jimmy can assign access rights to his sons' group for certain shares such as a cartoons share and allow only the parents' group to access the scary movie share. This is how he would create the group.

1 In the NAS's administration web configurator screen, click Groups > Add Group.

Groups Add Group Search Edit Group Delete Selected Group(s) Status Group Name

2 Specify a name for the group. Select the user(s) you want to add to the group from the Available User(s) list and click Add Selected User(s). Configure the screen as follows. Then click Apply to create the group.

Add Group Group Name children Available User(s) Bob admin Group Membership Add Selected User(s) → ← Remove Selected User(s) Apply Cancel

Now that Jimmy has created a group for Bob and Kevin, he can go through the steps again to create another group for the parents. Then he can see the rest of the tutorials for how to use the groups in assigning access rights to shares.

14.6.4 Accessing a Share From Windows Explorer

If you map a NAS share (where data is stored) to a Windows network drive, you can use Windows Explorer to transfer files to and from the NAS as if it was another folder on your computer. Here he maps Jimmy's share to Jimmy's computer.

1 Start Windows Explorer and go to the NAS's server name. The default is 'nas' followed by the number of your model ('nas540' for example).
2 Click Tools > Map Network Drive.

NSA File Edit View Favorites Tools Help Address \nsa Folders Map Network Drive... Disconnect Network Drive... Synchronize... Folder Options...

3 Select the network drive that you want to map the NAS to from the Drive list box. This example uses I. Then browse to and select the share on the NAS. Click Finish.

Map Network Drive Windows can help you connect to a shared network folder and assign a drive letter to the connection so that you can access the folder using My Computer. Specify the drive letter for the connection and the folder that you want to connect to: Drive: I: Folder: Browse... Example: \\server\share ✓ Reconnect at logon Connect using a different user name. Sign up for online storage or connect to a network server. < Back Finish Cancel

Browse For Folder Select a shared network folder Nsa Nsa Nsa admin Jimmy music photo public video Printers and Faxes Make New Folder OK Cancel

4 Enter the username and password for Jimmy's account and click OK. You do not need to do this if the username and password are the same as Jimmy's Windows login.

Connect to nsa localdomain Connecting to nsa User name: Password: Remember my password OK Cancel

5 After the mapping is done, you can then simply copy and paste or drag and drop files from/to your local computer's drives to or from this network folder. Just like the NAS's share was another folder on your computer.

Now that Bob has mapped Jimmy's share to Jimmy's computer, he can go through the steps again to map Kevin's share to Kevin's computer.

14.6.5 Accessing a Share Using FTP

You can also use FTP to access the NAS. Suppose Jimmy is temporarily using a different computer and wants to access his share without mapping it to the computer. This is how he would do it.

1 Open the FTP client (Windows Explorer is used here) and type "ftp://username@server" where "username" is the account's username and "server" is the NAS's IP address or server name.

File Edit View Favorites Tools Help Address Ftp://Jimmy@nsa Folders Desktop My Documents My Computer

2 Enter your password and click Login.

Log On As Could not login to the FTP server with the user name and password specified. FTP server: nsa User name: Jimmy Password: ••••• After you log on, you can add this server to your Favorites and return to it easily. FTP does not encrypt or encode passwords or data before sending them to the server. To protect the security of your passwords and data, use Web Folders (WebDAV) instead. Learn more about using Web Folders. Log on anonymously Save password Log On Cancel

3 Now you can access files and copy files from/to your local computer's drives to or from this network folder.

14.6.6 Accessing a Share Through the Web Configurator

You can browse and access files through the web configurator.

1 Log into the NAS web configurator (see Section 7.2 on page 38) using the appropriate user name and password (this example uses Jimmy's) and click File Browser. Click a share (the admin share in this example) to see the top level of the share's contents.

Keep me logged in

Now, anyone who connects to the NAS's Web Configurator screens will automatically do so by HTTPS. Use a secure method to let your users know the correct fingerprint for the NAS's certificate so they can check it before adding a security exception (as in steps 6 to 7 on pages 185 to 186). See the next section for how to use FTPES with the NAS for secure FTP transfers.

14.12 Using FTPES to Connect to the NAS

This section covers how to use FTP over Explicit TLS/SSL with the NAS for secure FTP transfers. Before you go through this section, read Section 14.11 on page 177 to configure HTTPS. This example uses FileZilla.

1 Open FileZilla and click File > Site Manager > New Site.

• Configure the Host field with the NAS's address.
• Set the Servertype to FTPES - FTP over explicit TLS/ SSL.
• Configure the account name and password.
• Click Connect.

Site Manager Select Entry: My Sites New site General Advanced Transfer settings Charset Host: 192.168.1.35 Port: 21 Servertype: FTPES - FTP over explicit TLS/SSL Logontype: Normal User: Gonzo Password: Account: Comments: New Site New Folder Rename Delete Copy Connect OK Discard

2 A security warning screen displays. The SHA1 fingerprint must match the NAS's certificate you downloaded from the NAS to your computer. (Double-click the NAS's certificate file and then click Details and look at the Thumbprint). If they match, click OK.

Unknown certificate The server's certificate is unknown. Please carefully examine the certificate to make sure the server can be trusted. Details Host: 192.168.1.35:21 Valid from: 9/12/2008 Valid to: 9/12/2011 Serial number: 00:8f:2d:37:2c:36:14:e7:37 Public key algorithm: RSA with 1024 bits Fingerprint (MD5): 14:bc:16:d9:61:0d:00:12:a9:66:4a:5f:ab:8c:c4:50 Fingerprint (SHA-1): 62:77:6f:09:cf:4c:12:94:84:38:e7:93:d5:d6:5b:ce:82:46:60:83 Subject of certificate Common name: NSA Organization: ZyXEL Certificate issuer Common name: NSA Organization: ZyXEL Session details Cipher: AES-128-CBC MAC: SHA1 Trust this certificate and carry on connecting? Always trust certificate in future sessions. OK Cancel

The shares and folders to which Gonzo has access display. Now you can use FTP to securely transfer files to or from the NAS. Use a secure method to let your users know the correct fingerprint for the NAS's certificate so they can check it before adding a security exception.

14.13 Using a Mac to Access the NAS

14.14 How to Use the BackupPlanner

Note: The screens and links in this section appear only after you have installed and enabled BackupPlanner. BackupPlanner is an application that you can install using Package Management (see Chapter 18 on page 246.)

Use the NAS's BackupPlanner to have a backup of your files and folders.

Schedule backups for times when the network is not busy (like at night or on weekends). For example, you might do daily backups of important individual files or folders and a weekly general archive. You can save backups to another location so your files can survive even if the original RAID or NAS fails.

14.14.1 Creating an Archive Backup

To backup the NAS every week to a remote NAS:

1 Click Protect > Backup > Add Job.

Figure 93 Protect > Backup

Backup Info

2 Identify the backup job and select Archive.

New files are often added to the shares that you need to back up and existing files are not frequently changed so select Incremental. The NAS does a full backup first and later only copies source files that are new and/or modified since the last backup. This example sets the NAS to do another full backup after every four incremental backups.

3 Click OK in the warning dialog box.

Figure 100 Protect > Backup > Add Job: Step 3

You are creating a mirror job. When you run this job, all the file/folders in the target that are different from the source content will be DELETED! Are you sure the target is empty?

4 For this example, assume not many files need to be backed up so leave the compression off.

• Turn on the encryption to protect these sensitive files during the transfer. The final files stored on the remote NAS will be unencrypted (usable).
• Restrict the bandwidth usage to 256 KB/s to stop the archives from using all of your network connection's available bandwidth.
• You don't have to configure a purge policy for a synchronization backup.
• Click Next.

Figure 101 Protect > Backup > Add Job: Step 3

You do not need to use a special restore process to use the files a synchronization backup creates. The copy of files that the NAS creates on the other NAS's Backups share can be used directly by anyone with access to that share.

14.14.3 Restoring Archived Files by Backup Job

If you have backup jobs for which the NAS has already performed backups, you can restore the files based on the backup job. Do the following:

16.1 Overview

This chapter gives an overview of the various features included in the system setting screens. Upgrade the NAS firmware. Use package management to add more useful applications in your NAS. Identify your NAS on the network and set the time that the NAS follows for its scheduled tasks/logs.

16.2 What You Can Do

• Use the Packages screens (Section 16.4 on page 207) to upload new firmware and download and install applications from the web.
• Use the Server Name screen (Section 16.5 on page 209) to specify the NAS's server and workgroup names.
• Use the Date/ Time screen (Section 16.6 on page 210) to set up date/time and choose a time zone for the NAS.

16.3 What You Need to Know

Package Management

This feature enables you to install and use the following applications.

• Gallery - This web-based application allows your NAS to host pictures. You can upload images in your local computer or shares to this application. Use the Gallery administrator account (default username admin, password 1234) to log into the Gallery console. There you can create accounts for other users.
• NFS - NFS (Network File System) is a file-sharing protocol most commonly implemented on Unix-like systems.
• NZBGet - This news grabber helps download files from UseNet.
• PHP-MySQL-phpMyAdmin - This tool can be used to manage MySQL through the web. Enter 'root' as the username and '1234' as the password to log in. This includes MySQL, PHP, and phpMyAdmin.
• Logitech® Media Server - This enables you to manage a Logitech's Squeezebox device connected to the NAS.
• TFTP - Use this to configure the NAS to accept log files from TFTP clients.

• Transmission - This Bit Torrent client supports adding tasks through torrent files and magnet links.

• WordPress - This allows you to create and manage a blog. Use the WordPress administrator account (default username admin, password 1234) to log in. You can then create accounts for other users.

• carbohydrate - Use this to have the NAS manage your downloads including those from one-click hosting sites. One-click hosting sites allow Internet users to easily upload files to the one-click host's server so others can download them.
• Memopal - Use this to back up files on the NAS to your Memopal online backup and storage account.
• ownCloud - Use this to store, synchronize, and share files, photos, calendars, and more with computers and mobile devices.
• myZyXELcloud-Agent - Use this to go to mycloud.zyxel.com to set up a free DDNS hostname for the NAS so you can connect to it easily from the Internet.

The following applications come with their own configuration screens and documentation:

• Gallery
  • NZBGet
• PHP-MySQL-phpMyAdmin
  • Logitech® Media Server
• Transmission
• WordPress
• m y Z y X E L c l o u d - A g e n t
• own Could

Windows/CIFS

Common Internet File System (CIFS) is a standard protocol supported by most operating systems in order to share files across the network.

• CIFS is included by default in Windows operating systems.
• You can use Samba with Linux to use CIFS.
  • CIFS transfers use security.

Time Lag

Time lag occurs when the time on the NAS falls behind the time on the time server. This may happen if:

• the time server is no longer reachable
• if the NAS is shut down often (the NAS internal battery keeps time when the NAS is shut down and this may cause possible variance)
  • power surges occur.

The NAS gives no warning if time lag occurs. You should resynchronize the time after a power surge or after you have shut down the NAS several times.

16.4 Package Management Screen

17.3 What You Need to Know

FTP

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a file transfer service that operates on the Internet. A system running the FTP server accepts commands from a system running an FTP client. FTP is not a secure protocol. Your file transfers could be subject to snooping.

FTPES (File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL)

File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL (FTPES) is a file transfer service that uses either TLS (Transport Layer Security) or SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) for secure transfers across the Internet. It requests for a mutual method of encryption from the FTP server for its file transfer sessions. Your FTP client must be set to use FTPES as in the following example.

Figure 117 FTP Client Example

Media Server

The media server feature lets anyone on your network play video, music, and photos from the NAS (without having to copy them to another computer). The NAS can function as a DLNA-compliant media server and/or an iTunes server. The NAS streams files to DLNA-compliant media clients or computers using iTunes. The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a group of personal computer and electronics companies that works to make products compatible in a home network.

iTunes Server

The NAS iTunes server feature lets you use Apple's iTunes software on a computer to play music and video files stored on the NAS. You can download iTunes from www.apple.com.

Download Service

The NAS's download service downloads files from the Internet directly to the NAS. You do not have to download to your computer and then copy to the NAS. This can free up your computer's system resources.

The NAS can download using these protocols.

• HTTP: The standard protocol for web pages.
• FTP: A standard Internet file transfer service.
• P2P download: Peer-to-peer files sharing protocol.

Web Publishing

Web publishing lets you "publish" shares (containing folders and files) on the NAS so people can access the files using a web browser without having to log into the Web Configurator. This way you can share files with others without them having to know and enter a username and password.

For example, if you want to share photos in a FamilyPhotos share, you could "web publish" it and others could use a web browser to access the photos at http://my-NAS's-IP-Address/MyWeb/FamilyPhotos.

RSS

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a format for delivering frequently updated digital content. A channel uses a feed to deliver its contents (items). Subscribe the NAS to a feed to be able to download the contents.

17.4 FTP Server Screen

Use FTP or FTPES (FTP over Explicit TTL/SSL) to upload files to the NAS and download files from the NAS. Click Applications > FTP Server to open the following screen.

17.11 Technical Reference

This section provides technical background information on the topics discussed in this chapter.

17.11.1 Sharing Media Files on Your Network

The media server feature lets anyone on your network play video, music, and photos from the NAS (without having to copy them to another computer). The NAS can function as a DLNA-compliant media server and/or an iTunes server. The NAS streams files to DLNA-compliant media clients or computers using iTunes. The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a group of personal computer and electronics companies that works to make products compatible in a home network.

• Publish shares to let others play the contained media files.
• The media server is a convenient way to share files you download.
• Hardware-based media players can also play the files. See page 354 for the supported multimedia file formats.

Note: Anyone on your network can play the media files in the published shares. No user name and password or other form of security is used. The media server is enabled by default with the video, photo, and music shares published.

Songs from the iTunes Store

After using iTunes on your computer to download songs from Apple's iTunes Store, you can copy them to the NAS. Many of these songs have DRM (Digital Rights Management). At the time of writing, you can use your Apple account ID and password to authorize up to a total of five computers to play the files. To authorize a computer, open iTunes and click Store > Authorize Computer.

17.11.2 Download Service

The NAS's download service downloads files from the Internet directly to the NAS. You do not have to download to your computer and then copy to the NAS. This can free up your computer's system resources.

The NAS can download using these protocols.

• HTTP: The standard protocol for web pages.
• FTP: A standard Internet file transfer service.
• P2P download: Peer-to-peer files sharing protocol.

Note: Do not use the NAS for illegal purposes. Illegal downloading or sharing of files can result in severe civil and criminal penalties. You are subject to the restrictions of copyright laws and any other applicable laws and will bear the consequences of any infringements thereof. ZyXEL bears NO responsibility or liability for your use of the download service feature.

Torrent Files

The NAS needs a “.torrent” file for P2P download to download a file. The torrent file gives the NAS information about the file to be downloaded (and shared) and the tracker(s) (computers) that coordinates the distribution of the file.

When you add a P2P download task in the NAS's web configurator screens, you can copy and paste the URL of the torrent file. The NAS automatically downloads the torrent file and saves it in a torrent folder within the folder where the NAS stores downloaded files (the admin share's download folder by default).

If you already have the torrent file saved on your computer, you can just specify its location when adding a download task through the web configurator. Another method is to use FTP or a CIFS program (Windows Explorer for example) to copy the torrent file into the torrent folder. The NAS automatically uses the torrent file.

After your P2P download and sharing are finished, you can go to the incoming folder within the destination share or folder and delete the .torrent file if you need to free up hard disk space.

17.11.3 Download Service Notification

Use the download service notification to keep track of downloaded files on the NAS. You can subscribe to the NAS's download list on your computer. When the NAS finishes downloading new files, your RSS reader displays the information and links for the files. You can also download the files from the RSS reader to your computer.

See Section 14.7.3 on page 168 for a tutorial about using the download service notification.

In the Download Service screen, select Enable Download Notify and click Apply. An RSS feed icon appears. Click the icon to subscribe to the NAS's download list.

Note: The download service notification only keeps track of files downloaded via P2P download.

17.11.4 P2P Download Security

When you download using P2P, you reveal your IP address. This increases the risk of hacking attacks, which can be protected against by a good firewall.

Use a Hardware-based Firewall

Place a hardware-based firewall between your network and the Internet (a software-based firewall on your computer would just protect the computer itself, not the NAS since your computer is not between your NAS and the Internet).

Figure 136 Firewall

    A["Router"] --> B["Switch"]
    B --> C["Cloud"]
    D["Hackers"] --> E["Malicious Packets"]
    F["Viruses"] --> E
    E --> G["INTERNET"]

Ideally your firewall should have the following:

• Stateful packet inspection to control access between the Internet and your network and protect your NAS (and computers) from hacking attacks.
• IDP (Intrusion Detection and Prevention) to detect malicious packets within normal network traffic and take immediate action against them.
• Anti-virus to check files you download for computer viruses.

P2P Download and Your Firewall

The anti-virus feature on a firewall probably cannot check P2P downloads for viruses, so use anti-virus software on your computer to scan the NAS for viruses.

When you download using P2P download, many other P2P download users are also trying to download the file from you. The firewall slows this down because by default, it only allows traffic from the Internet in response to a request that originated on the LAN (it lets you get files from the Internet and blocks those on the Internet from getting files from you).

    style E fill:#ccf,stroke:#333

To speed up P2P download file transfers, configure your firewall's port forwarding to send incoming TCP port 9090 and UDP port 9089 connections to the NAS. You probably need to use your firewall's HTML (web-based) configuration interface to set this up (see the firewall's manual for details). You may also have to configure a corresponding firewall rule.

17.11.5 Web Publishing Example

This example covers how to configure the Web Publishing screen to let people use a web browser to access a share named FamilyPhotos without logging into the Web Configurator and shows how to access the share through the Internet.

1 Click Applications > Web Publishing and configure the screen as shown (enable the web publishing and move FamilyPhotos over to Published Shares) and click Apply.

Figure 139 Applications > Web Publishing (Example)

Applications - Web Publishing Web Publishing Disable Web Publishing Enable Web Publishing Support HTTPS Port Number: 30 Unpublished Shares Jimmy Jimmy2 admin music photo public video Published Shares FamilyPhotos Publish Selected Share(s) Unpublished Selected Share(s) Apply Reset

2 Now open your web browser and type in the address of the NAS's FamilyPhotos web page. In this example, the NAS's IP address is 192.168.1.33, and the name of the web-published share is FamilyPhotos. So you would enter "http://192.168.1.33/MyWeb/FamilyPhotos/" in your browser's address bar. Then press [ENTER] or click Go. A screen displays listing the share's files.

• Click a file's link to open the file.
• Right-click a file's link and select Save Target As.. (in Internet Explorer) to save a copy of the file.
• Click a label in the heading row to sort the files by that criteria.
• To customize how the page looks and works, create an index.html or index.htm file and store it in the share.

17.11.6 Web Publishing

Web publishing lets you "publish" shares (containing folders and files) on the NAS so people can access the files using a web browser without having to log into the Web Configurator. This way you can share files with others without them having to know and enter a user name and password.

For example, if you want to share photos in a FamilyPhotos share, you could "web publish" it and others could use a web browser to access the photos at http://my-NAS's-IP-Address/MyWeb/FamilyPhotos.

Note: The NAS does not use any security for the files in the published folders. It is not recommended to publish shares if you do not have the NAS behind a good hardware-based firewall. See page 236 for more on firewalls.

Additionally, you can use HTML editing software (not included) to create an index.html or index.htm file to define and customize how your website works and looks.

Accessing Web-published Shares from the Internet

You need to use a public address to access the NAS's web-published shares from the Internet. If your NAS uses a private IP address, you may need to use the public IP address of your Internet gateway and configure NAT or port forwarding on your Internet gateway and possibly firewall rules in order to let people access the NAS's web-published shares from the Internet.

Web Publishing Port Number

If the web-published shares use a port number other than 80 (the normal port for web traffic), users must include it after the NAS's IP address in order to access the NAS's web-published shares. For example, say you specified port 8080, the NAS's IP address is 192.168.1.23, and the name of the web-published share is FamilyPhotos. You would have to enter "http://192.168.1.23:8080/MyWeb/FamilyPhotos/" in your browser's address bar to access the share's web page.

The NAS's web configurator uses port 80. To make the web configurator more secure, you can have the web-published shares use another port number. Then you can configure one set of firewall rules and NAT or port forwarding settings on your Internet gateway specifically for allowing access to the web-published shares and another separate set of rules for accessing the NAS's web configurator.

17.11.7 Printer Sharing

The NAS can act as a print server. A print server lets multiple computers share a printer. Connect a printer to the NAS's USB port to let multiple computers on your network use it. See www.zyxel.com for a list of compatible printers.

Figure 141 Printer Sharing

You can copy files from a USB device to the NAS or from the NAS to a USB device. Simply press and release the COPY/SYNC button to start copying files. See Section 17.10 on page 232 for details about configuring the copy settings.

The following figure illustrates how copying files works when you copy files from a USB device to the NAS. The same concept applies when you copy files from the NAS to a USB device.

Figure 142 Copying Files Example
Before Copy

graph LR
    A["USB"] --> B["After Copy"]
    C["NAS"] --> D["After Copy"]
    E["USB"] --> F["After Copy"]
    G["NAS"] --> H["After Copy"]

Both storage devices contain file A.

• A copy of files A and B from the USB device is transferred to the NAS.
• File A from the USB device replaces file A on the NAS.

17.11.9 Synchronizing Files

Synchronization makes the contents on the target device identical to the ones on the source device. You can synchronize files from a USB device to the NAS or from the NAS to a USB device. In addition, you may also synchronize files in both directions simultaneously.

Press and hold the COPY/ SYNC button until you hear a beep to synchronize files. See Section 17.10 on page 232 for details about configuring the synchronization settings.

USB -> NAS or USB <- NAS

When you synchronize files in one direction, contents on the source device replace the files on the target device.

The following figure illustrates how synchronization works when you synchronize files from a USB device to the NAS. The same concept applies when you synchronize files from the NAS to a USB device.

Figure 143 Synchronizing Files Example 1
Before Sync

Both storage devices contain A.

• A copy of files A and B from the USB device is transferred to the NAS.
• File A from the USB device replaces file A on the NAS.
• File C on the NAS is deleted.

USB <-> NAS

When you synchronize files in both directions simultaneously, both storage devices transfer unique files to one another. Files with the same file name are synchronized according to their modification date/time. The difference in modification time between the two files has to be greater than five minutes. More recently modified files overwrite the older ones during synchronization.

The following figure illustrates how synchronization works when you synchronize files in both directions simultaneously.

A on the USB device and B on the NAS are modified more recently.

• File A from the USB device replaces file A on the NAS.
• File B from the NAS replaces file B on the USB device.
• A copy of file C from the USB device is transferred to the NAS.
  • A copy of file D from the NAS is transferred to the USB device.

17.12 Syslog Server Screen

Use this screen to configure the NAS to accept syslog logs from syslog clients such as ZyXEL's G-4100 v2.

Note: You may need to configure any firewalls between the NAS and the syslog clients in order to let the syslog traffic go to the NAS.

19.1 Overview

This chapter discusses the features in the Auto Upload screens.

The auto upload feature uploads media files stored in the NAS to the Flickr and/or YouTube sharing websites. Besides web publishing and media server, auto upload is another convenient way to share media files with your friends and family. You can link the NAS to your Flickr and/or YouTube account and select shares for the NAS to upload. The NAS uploads the media files stored in the specified shares to your Flickr and/or YouTube account. When you add new files to the specified shares, the NAS also automatically uploads the new files to your Flickr and/or YouTube account.

19.2 What You Can Do

• Use the Flickr/ YouTube screen (Section 19.4 on page 262) to upload photos and videos to your Flickr and YouTube accounts.
• Use the FTP Uploadr screen (Section 19.5 on page 270) to upload files to FTP servers.

19.3 What You Need to Know

FTP

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a file transfer service that operates on the Internet. A system running the FTP server accepts commands from a system running an FTP client. FTP is not a secure protocol. Your file transfers could be subject to snooping.

FTPES (File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL)

File Transfer Protocol over Explicit TLS/SSL (FTPES) is a file transfer service that uses TLS (Transport Layer Security) or Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for secure transfers across the Internet.

20.1 Overview

The Dropbox Web-based file hosting service uses cloud computing to let you use file synchronization to store and share files and folders with others across the Internet. Use your Dropbox account to easily move files to your NAS and have the NAS download *.torrent files.

20.2 Dropbox Screen

Use the Dropbox screen to log the NAS into your Dropbox account. This creates Drop2NAS and zDownload folders in your Dropbox account. See Section 20.3 on page 276 for how to use the folders to move files to your NAS and have the NAS download *.torrent files. The NAS checks the Dropbox account's Drop2NAS and zDownload folders every three minutes.

20.3 How to Use Dropbox with the NAS

Here is how to use the Drop2NAS and zDownload folders the NAS creates in your Dropbox account.

Using the Drop2NAS Folder

The NAS connects to Dropbox and copies files in the Drop2NAS folder to the NAS's admin\Dropbox\FromDropbox folder and empties the Drop2NAS folder. The NAS initiates connections to the Dropbox server so you do not need to configure rules on a firewall in front of the NAS to allow access to the NAS. Dropbox is not connecting to the NAS. When you upload files of the same name to the Drop2NAS folder, the NAS adds a number to the names of the files in the NAS's

admin\Dropbox\FromDropbox folder in the format of "filename(n).extension". Here is an example of the Drop2NAS folder.

Note: Do not delete the NAStoken file as it is needed for your NAS to work with the Dropbox account.

Using the zDownload Folder

The NAS copies *.torrent files in the zDownload folder to the NAS's admin\download\torrents folder and automatically starts downloading them. The NAS adds a suffix to the name of each torrent file in the Dropbox account's zDownload folder and keeps updating it to show the job's state (downloading, queued, paused, canceled, uploading, finished, error, or retrying). The NAS does not take any action for folders nor other types of files in the zDownload folder. Here is an example of torrent files in the zDownload folder.

Recycle bins in the NAS help users recover accidentally deleted files or folders in the shares. When you delete an item, a recycle folder is created within the share to hold the deleted item.

Every share can have its own recycle folder. You must enable the recycle-bin function to recycle deleted items. You can configure this setting when you add or edit a share. See Section 24.4.2 on page 296 for details on activating the recycle bin in a share.

Later if you want to retrieve a deleted item, you can locate the item in the recycle folder. You may move or copy the deleted item to another share.

Maintenance Screens

26.1 Overview

This chapter discusses the Maintenance screens. The Maintenance screens allow you to manage system configurations.

26.2 What You Can Do

• Use the Power screen (Section 26.3 on page 302) to configure power settings for the NAS, including power saving, UPS, power on/off after power failure, power on/off schedule, and Wake on LAN.
• Use the Log screen (Section 26.4 on page 306) to check the system's logs.
• Use the Configuration screen (Section 26.5 on page 310) to backup or restore the NAS configuration file.
• Use the SSL screen (Section 26.6 on page 311) to configure HTTPS and the NAS's SSL certificate.
• Use the Shutdown screen (Section 26.7 on page 313) to restart or shut down your NAS.
• Use the Unpair myZyXELcloud screen (Section 26.8 on page 314) to remove the pairing between the NAS and the myZyXELcloud account.

26.3 Power Screen

Use this screen to manage power settings for the NAS.

Click Maintenance > Power to display the following screen.

Figure 187 Maintenance > Power

Maintenance - Power Power Management Turn off hard disk(s) 15 minutes Enable Sleeping HDD LED Blinking Minimum UPS Capacity Minimum UPS Capacity 50 % Note: • This feature will not work now because there is no UPS control cable connected. • The NAS automatically shuts down if the UPS's remaining charge gets down to this level. Power On After Power Failure • Keep Former Status If the system was on when the power failed, it restarts automatically when the power is restored. If it was off, it stays off. • Always Power On The system restarts automatically when the power is restored. • Always Power Off The system will not restart after power failure. You must press the power button manually to restart it. Power On/Off Schedule • Enable Power Control Schedule Edit Wake On LAN Setting • Enable Wake On LAN Apply Reset

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 114 Maintenance > Power

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Power Management
Turn off hard disk(s)	Enter the number of minutes to wait when the NAS is idle before spinning the hard disks down to sleep (hibernation). The default time is 15 minutes.
Enable Sleeping HDD LED Blinking	Select this to have the HDD LED blink slowly when the hard disk is sleeping (hibernating). Clear this to have the HDD LED stay on when the hard disk is sleeping.
Minimum UPS Capacity
Minimum UPS Capacity	When you use an APC Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with a USB connection to the NAS, the NAS shuts itself down if the APC UPS's battery charge gets down to the percentage you specify in this field. This allows the NAS to shut down properly and avoid data loss caused by a power failure when the UPS stops supplying power.A setting around 50% is recommended. A setting close to 100% is not recommended since it would cause the NAS to shut down whenever the UPS is charging. A setting close to 0 is also not recommended since the UPS would not have enough power to allow the NAS to shutdown properly.
Power On After Power Failure	Select an option to set whether or not the NAS restarts when the power is restored after a power failure.Note:
Keep Former Status	Select this option to have the NAS automatically restart only if it was operating when the power failed. The NAS remains off if it was already off when the power failed.
Always Power On	Select this option to keep the NAS operating as much of the time as possible. The NAS restarts automatically even if it was turned off when the power failed.
Always Power Off	Select this option to keep the NAS from automatically restarting when the power is restored after a power failure. This is a computer's “traditional” behavior. Select this if you have other servers such as a domain controller or DNS server that you want to start or check after a power failure before the NAS turns on.
Power On/Off Schedule
Enable Power Control Schedule	Select this option to have the NAS turn itself off and on or reboot according to the schedules you configured.Click Edit to go to the screen where you can configure the power control schedules.Refer to Section 26.3.1 on page 304 for this screen.Note:
Enable Wake On LAN	Enable Wake On LAN to be able to turn on the NAS through its wired Ethernet connection.You must have a computer or router on your LAN that supports sending Wake On LAN “magic packets” to turn on the NAS.To use Wake On LAN from a computer on your LAN, install a program such as Wake On LAN EX or another Wake On LAN program that supports sending magic packets.You can use Wake On LAN from a remote location if the router in front of the NAS supports sending magic packets.Use the NAS's power button or the Web Configurator's Maintenance > Shutdown menu to turn off the NAS.
Apply Click this to	save your changes.
Reset Click this to	restore previously saved settings.

27.1 Overview

This chapter introduces different ways of protecting data on the NAS and covers the Protect screens.

Table 127 Overview of Protection Methods

SITUATION ACTION
Unexpected NAS behavior after configuration changes	Back up the NAS configuration file before you make major configuration changes. See Section 27.5 on page 336.
Need to transfer data from your computer to the NAS after volume(s) have been created	Backup your data to a computer or other storage devices.
Data infected by virus Use anti-virus software on your computer to scan files before saving them onto the NAS. Although this may be slow so you may want to schedule it to occur while no one is using the NAS.Use a firewall with anti-virus capability on your network.
Hard drive malfunction.	Use RAID. See Section 8.6 on page 98 for more information on RAID.
NAS malfunctionNetwork downNatural disaster such as a fire or earthquake occurs where your NAS is located	Back up data to another NAS or external USB hard drive. See Section 14.14 on page 191 for an example of how to back up the NAS to another NAS.

27.2 What You Can Do

• Use the Backup screens (Section 27.3 on page 321) to create and customize backup jobs.
• Use the Restore screens (Section 27.4 on page 332) to restore previous backups made with the NAS.

27.3 Backup Screens

Use this screen to create and customize scheduled backup jobs for your files.

You can have several backup jobs for specific folders and time periods.

Table 129 Protect > Backup: Step 1

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Job Information
Job Name Enter a	name to identify the backup job.
Job Description	Enter a short description (up to 100 keyboard characters) for the backup job.
Backup Type Choose the backup type the NAS implements for the backup job.
	Archive- This is a backup of the source folder in an archive format. Once you backup your files in the target folder, you cannot access the files individually unless you have the extracting tool used by the NAS. If there are existing files in the target folder prior to the NAS's backup job, the files remain undisturbed. You can also choose between the following types of archive:Full- The NAS does a fresh backup each time. This provides the most protection but also requires the most storage space.Incremental- The NAS backs up new or modified files from the source folder since the last backup. The first backup is a full backup. You can also do a full backup after several incremental backups. Enter how many incremental backups the NAS runs before it performs a full backup of the source folder. You must keep the latest full backup to be able to restore the files later.Synchronization- This does a backup of individual files. If you use this type, you cannot use theRestorefeature of the NAS. You can also choose between the following types of synchronization:Mirror- The NAS deletes all data in the target folder before running the backup. It makes the target folder identical to the source folder.Publish- The NAS does a backup of individual files to the target folder without overwriting existing files in that folder. It makes a copy of the source files.Rsync- This synchronizes individual files to another device that supports rsync. Rsync is open source and provides incremental file transfers. It only sends the differences in the files through the connection so it brings the remote files into sync very quickly.The NAS deletes all data in the target folder before running the backup. It makes the target folder identical to the source folder.If you use this type, you cannot use theRestorefeature of the NAS.

27.3.3 Backup: Step 3

Use this screen to specify compression, encryption and purge policies for the backup job. This step is only available if you are doing an archive backup or a synchronization backup to a remote target.

Figure 203 Protect > Backup: Step 3

Protect - Backup Add a new backup Job Step 3 Compression Yes No Encryption Encrypt Archive File: Yes Password: No Purge Policy Keep All Old Backup files Keep Only the last backup files Keep Backups For day(s)

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 131 Protect > Backup: Step 3

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Compression	Select Yes if you want NAS to compress the files for your backup. Otherwise, choose No.In an Archive backup, compression is a method of packing computing files in a way that saves hard disk space.For a Synchronization backup (to a remote target), the source data will be compressed before the transmission to reduce the transmission time. It is used in slow networks only.
Encryption	Select Yes if you want NAS to encrypt the files for your backup. Otherwise, choose No.In an Archive backup, this means using a password to secure files.For a Synchronization backup (to a remote target), this means securing the file transfer session. However the final file stored on the remote NAS is unencrypted. This takes a long time. Make sure you really need this feature before enabling it.
Bandwidth	Restrict the bandwidth of synchronization backups to help stop them from using all of your network connection's available bandwidth. This is more important when backing up to a remote NAS or computer through the Internet.
Purge Policy	The NAS maintains the files that have been included in your backups. However to save hard disk space, you can choose to delete files that have been included in previous backups.Select Keep All Old Backup files to store all files that have been included in previous backups.If you want to store a certain number of backup files, select Keep Only the last n backup files (1-30). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 30 to specify how many backups the NAS stores. All backup files older than the last one are deleted. You will not be able to recover files that existed (only) in those previous backups. Select this if backup space is limited and recovery of old files is not important.If you want to store all backups for a certain time period, select Keep Backups for n day(s)(1-3650). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 3650 to specify how many days the NAS stores all backup files. After this day has expired, all backup files will be deleted.

27.5 Configuration File Backup and Restoration

Use the Maintenance > Configuration menus to create a file of your NAS configurations such as passwords, shares and volumes created, network settings and so on. If you're going to do some major configuration changes, then it is advisable to create a configuration backup file. If things go wrong after you make the configuration changes, you can always go back to the previous configuration by restoring an earlier configuration file.

If you forgot the NAS password, then use the RESET button (see Section 1.7 on page 17) to return the NAS to the factory default configuration.

Note: Configuration File Backup and Restoration does not affect data (your files and folders), volumes on the NAS.

28.2 Power, Hardware, Connections, and LEDs

The NAS PWR LED does not turn on (no LEDs are on).

• Make sure the NAS is turned on.
• Make sure you are using the power adaptor or cord included with the NAS.

• Make sure the power adaptor or cord is connected to the NAS and plugged in to an appropriate power source. Make sure the power source is turned on.

• Turn the NAS off and on.

• If the problem continues, contact the vendor.

An HDD LED is off.

The HDD LED is off when the NAS cannot detect a hard drive in the drive bay. Replace or install a hard drive. See Installing or replacing a hard disk.

An HDD LED is red.

Red means that the NAS detected an error on the hard drive (like a bad sector for example). The NAS automatically tries to recover a bad sector, but the LED stays red until the NAS restarts. Even if the hard drive still functions, it is recommended that you replace it since errors are a sign that the hard drive may fail soon. See Installing or replacing a hard disk.

Installing or replacing a hard disk.

Do not remove or install a hard disk while the NAS is turned on. The NAS must be turned off before you remove or install the hard disk.

1 Turn the NAS off, remove the front panel and make sure:

• there is a SATA I or SATA II (3.0 Gbit/s) compatible hard disk installed.
• the hard disk is installed correctly in the disk bay. Push the disk back into the NAS disk bay until the hard disk is fitted snugly inside the NAS (see the NAS Quick Start Guide).
• the hard disk could be faulty. Try a different hard drive or test the original hard disk in a different NAS or computer.

2 If you had to replace the drive, turn on the NAS and go to the Storage screen.

• If you have a RAID I volume click the Repair icon next to the new drive.
• If you are using RAID 0 you will need to recreate the whole volume. All of your data is lost.
• If you are using a single-disk JBOD volume, you need to create a new volume on the new drive.
• If you are using a two-disk JBOD volume, you need to create a whole new volume on both drives.

The LAN LED (by the LAN port) is off.

• Make sure the Ethernet cable is connected properly to the NAS and connected to another (Ethernet) device. Make sure the other device is turned on. If it's connected directly to a computer, make sure that the computer network card is working (ping 127.0.0.1 on the computer).
• Use another Ethernet cable. If you're connecting to a Gigabit Ethernet, make sure you're using an 8-wire Ethernet cable.
• If the problem continues, contact the vendor.

See Table 1 on page 15 for a description of NAS LEDs.

The NAS turns off or reboots by itself.

Check the Power Management screen. This is where you configure power settings for the NAS, including power saving, UPS, power on/off during power failure and power on/off schedule. The NAS may be set to turn off under certain conditions.

A power failure occurred while the NAS was downloading files.

• If power failure occurs during the active download period, the NAS will verify whether the downloaded files were damaged.
• If a file is corrupted, the NAS will download the file again.
• If the file is intact but not completely downloaded, the NAS will resume the download task after it restarts.

28.3 NAS Starter Utility

The NAS Starter Utility cannot discover my NAS.

• Close the NAS Starter Utility and reopen it.
• Check your hardware connections and make sure they are set up correctly.
• Only one instance of the NAS Starter Utility can run on your computer. Make sure you close any duplicate windows for this application.
• Wait for the SYS LED to stop blinking before clicking Discover.
• Confirm that the computer running the NAS Starter Utility has a network connection. See the section on the NAS's LAN connection for related information.
• The computer running the NAS Starter Utility can only discover NASs in the same subnet. NASs connected to the same switch or router as your NAS Starter Utility computer are usually in the same subnet unless the router is doing subnetting or the switch is implementing VLAN.

The NAS Starter Utility discovered my NAS but the status is always unreachable, even though I can access it.

You may need to add the NAS Starter Utility to your software firewall's allow list or lower your software firewall or anti-virus scanner's security level. Alternatively you may have to configure your software firewall or other security software to allow UDP port 50127 traffic from the NAS. If there is a hardware firewall between you and the NAS, configure it to allow UDP port 50127 traffic from the NAS.

I have at least two NASs in my network, how do I identify which one I want to configure in the NAS Starter Utility screens.

If you have several NASs connected to your computer/network, give each a unique name. You may have to disconnect all but one and use the NAS Starter Utility to rename it. Then connect another NAS and rename it and continue to connect and rename the NASs one-by-one until they are all connected and each has a unique name.

Alternatively, if you have a DHCP server on your network and you can access it's list of assigned IP addresses, you could see which IP address belongs to which NAS. You can check the MAC address of your NAS by checking the attached sticker in the device housing.

28.4 NAS Login and Access

I forgot the server name of the NAS.

• The default server name is 'NAS' followed by the number of your model ('NAS540' for example).
• Use the NAS Starter Utility to discover your NAS. If you have admin privileges, you can directly change the IP address of the NAS using the NAS Starter Utility.
• If the server name has changed and you don't have the NAS Starter Utility, see Section 1.7 on page 17 to use the RESET button to return to the default setting.

I cannot get to the NAS login screen.

• Use the NAS Starter Utility to discover your NAS. If you have admin privileges, you can directly change the IP address of the NAS using the NAS Starter Utility.
• Make sure you have used the NAS Starter Utility to initialize your NAS.
• If you used the RESET button, the NAS may have a new IP address. Close and reopen the NAS Starter Utility to discover the NAS.

• Make sure the NAS is turned on.

• If you are trying to login directly by typing the server name into your web browser's address field, make sure you are using the correct server name as the web site address.

• The default server name is 'NAS' followed by the number of your model ('NAS540' for example). If you have changed the server name, use the new one.
• If the server name has been changed and you do not know the new server name, see the troubleshooting suggestions for I forgot the server name of the NAS.
• If it still doesn't work, try using the NAS Starter Utility.
• Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick Start Guide and Table 1 on page 15.
• By default, the NAS gets an IP address automatically. The NAS assigns itself an IP address if no device assigns one. If your computer is also set to get an IP address automatically, the computer and the NAS can both assign themselves IP addresses and communicate. See Section 10.4 on page 107 if you need to configure the NAS with a static IP address.
• If you are connecting to the NAS by its IP address, make sure you use the correct one. If the NAS has a wired Ethernet connection and a wireless connection through an attached USB wireless dongle, the NAS has a different IP address for each connection. To connect through the wired Ethernet connection, use the wired Ethernet connection's IP address. To connect through the wireless connection, use the wireless connection's IP address.
• Make sure your computer's IP address is in the same subnet as the NAS's IP address. You can use the NAS Starter Utility to find the NAS's IP address. Skip this if you know that there are routers between your computer and the NAS.
• Ping the NAS from your computer. Make sure your computer's Ethernet adapter is installed and functioning properly. In a (Windows) computer, click Start, (All) Programs, Accessories and then Command Prompt. In the Command Prompt window, type "ping" followed by the NAS's IP address (use the NAS Starter Utility to find the NAS's IP address if you don't know it) and then press [ENTER].
• Make sure you are using Internet Explorer 6.0 (and later) or Firefox 1.07 (and later).
• Make sure your Internet browser does not block pop-up windows and has JavaScript and Java enabled. With Internet Explorer 6, you may also have to enable scripting of safe ActiveX controls. See Section 28.4.1 on page 341.

I forgot the password.

• The default password is 1234.
- If you have changed the password and forgotten it, you will have to reset the NAS.

28.4.1 Enabling Scripting of Safe ActiveX Controls

If pages of the web configurator do not display properly in Internet Explorer, check that scripting of safe ActiveX controls is enabled.

1 In Internet Explorer, click Tools, Internet Options and then the Security tab.

I can see the login screen, but I cannot log in to the NAS.

• Make sure you have entered the username and password correctly. The default username is admin, and the default password is 1234. These fields are case-sensitive, so make sure [Caps Lock] is not on.
• Turn the NAS off and on.
• If this does not work, see Section 1.7 on page 17 to reset the device.

I cannot see the multi-language web configurator screens while using Internet Explorer.

Use Section 28.4.1 on page 341 to enable the scripting of safe ActiveX controls.

The Web Configurator logs out by itself.

The web configurator management session automatically times out if it is left idle for 15 minutes. Simply log back into the NAS if this happens to you.

28.5 I Cannot Access The NAS

I cannot access a share.

• Check that the NAS is turned on and connected to the network. Try to ping the NAS or use the NAS Starter Utility to discover it.
• Make sure you have used the NAS Starter Utility to initialize your NAS. See Chapter 2 on page 19 for more information.
• Check that you entered your login name and password correctly.
• Check that the share exists and check its access settings.
• Check if the shared folder is a subfolder of another (parent) share. Check that the parent share's access rights do not conflict with the subfolder share. It is recommended that you do not create subfolder shares.
• Check if there are any existing mapped network drives to the NAS. You may need to disconnect existing mapped network drives as a new mapped network drive connection may use (different) previously-saved login information. To do this, open Windows Explorer and click Tools > Disconnect Mapped Network Drives.
• Check that the volume in which the share resides, exists and is not down or degraded. If it is down or degraded, see Section 28.2 on page 337.
• Make sure you have the client for Microsoft networks installed and enabled in your network connection's properties.

- In Windows XP or 2000, click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network Connections (Network and Dial-up Connections in Windows 2000/NT) > Local Area Connection > Properties.

- Check that Client for Microsoft Networks is in the list of components and has its check box selected.

28.6 Users Cannot Access the NAS

A local user cannot access a share

• Check that the NAS is turned on and connected to the network. The local user should try to ping the NAS or use the NAS Starter Utility to discover it.
• The local user should check that he entered his login name and password correctly.
• Check if the share exists and has the correct access settings for this user.
• Check the Access Control List (ACL) of read/write permissions associated with specific files and/or folders. Account names added to the list are linked to the files and folders that they are allowed to access, along with what kinds of actions they are allowed to perform with those files and folders (delete, move, rename, and so on).
• The user's computer may already be connected to another of the NAS's shares using a different user name and/or password. This can happen without the user realizing it if the user's computer automatically connects to a share at logon. Right-click any other connected shares and click Disconnect. Then re-attempt to connect to the desired share.
• Check if the share has an ANONYMOUS or EVERYONE access right. If the user is already logged into a share using her username and password, she will NOT be able to access a share that has ANONYMOUS FTP only access rights (as these require 'no login'). In this case she should log out and try to access the share again without logging in. See Section 17.4 on page 215 for more details.
• Check if the shared folder is a subfolder of another (parent) share. Check that the parent share's access rights do not conflict with the subfolder share. It is recommended that you do not create subfolder shares.
• Check if the user belongs to a group with conflicting access rights. DENY always takes precedence. If you allow a user FULL access to a share but set his group to DENY, then he will NOT be able to access the share.
• The local user should check if there are any existing mapped network drives to the NAS. He may need to disconnect existing CIFS connections as new CIFS connection may use previously-saved login information that may be different to NAS login.
• Check that the array in which the share resides, exists and is not down or degraded. If the array is down or degraded, see Section 28.2 on page 337.
• If the user is using DFS links, then he can only access the NAS using CIFS and not FTP.
• Check that the share has not been disabled.

I cannot import domain user or user group information even though testing of the connection to the domain controller is OK.

• Check the NAS's DNS setting. The DNS server the NAS is using must be able to resolve the domain controller's address. If the domain controller uses a private IP address, the NAS needs to use a private DNS server. If the domain controller uses a public IP address, the NAS needs to use a public DNS server.
• Leave the domain and re-join it.

A domain user can't access a share.

In addition to the checks listed previously for local users, check that the domain controller is turned on and connected to the network.

A user can access a share but cannot access individual folders or files within the share.

- Check the Access Control List (ACL) of read/write permissions associated with the share's specific files and/or folders. Account names added to the list are linked to the files and folders that they are allowed to access, along with what kinds of actions they are allowed to perform with those files and folders (delete, move, rename, and so on).

28.7 External USB Drives

The COPY LED is red.

Copying files to or from a USB device or SD card failed. The USB device or SD card may not be compatible with the NAS. Try to save the files onto a computer and then from the computer to the NAS (through the network connection).

28.8 Storage

Migrating from RAID 1 to RAID 5 did not expand the storage capacity.

The NAS normally expands the storage capacity by itself after rebuilding the RAID but may not if the NAS rebooted during the RAID re-build.

After the re-build finishes, go to the Storage screens and select the volume or disk group and click Manage and use Expand the volume with unallocated disk space.

Replacing smaller disks in a RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 6 with larger capacity hard disks did not expand the storage capacity.

The NAS normally expands the storage capacity by itself after rebuilding the RAID but may not if the NAS rebooted during the RAID re-build.

After the re-build finishes, go to the Storage screens and select the volume or disk group and click Manage and use Expand the volume with unallocated disk space.

28.9 Firmware

I want to know the firmware version on the NAS.

Go to the Status screen. The Firmware field shows you the current firmware version running.

28.10 File Transfer

I want to transfer my file(s) from my local computer or storage device to the NAS.

- After you initialize your hard disk, you can directly access the folders in your NAS and transfer files in the same way you transfer files in your local computer:

1 On your Windows computer, click Start > Run or open a web browser.

2 Enter \ nas followed by the number of your model (540 for example) or the Server Name you assigned the NAS. This shows you the folders in the NAS.

3 Use drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste to transfer files over to your NAS.

- Use the COPY/ SYNC button to transfer files from an external (USB) storage device to the NAS.

I want to transfer my file(s) from the NAS to my local computer or storage device.

- After you initialize your hard disk, you can directly access the folders in your NAS and transfer files in the same way you transfer files in your local computer:

1 On your Windows computer, click Start > Run or open a web browser.

2 Enter \ nas followed by the number of your model (540 for example) or the Server Name you assigned the NAS. This shows you the folders in the NAS.
3 Use drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste to transfer files from your NAS to your local computer's folder or your storage device.

- You can download the files from your NAS. Just click on the file(s) in the Share Browsing screen (Section 11.2 on page 124). Your computer will prompt you for the location where you want to save the file.

28.11 Networking

I want to control who can access my folder(s)/file(s).

• If you are an administrator, you can configure a user's access rights. Use the Shares screen (Section 24.3 on page 291) to do this.
• If you enabled Web Publishing for a folder, anyone on your network can play the media files in the published shares. No user name and password or other form of security is used. The media server is enabled by default with the video, photo, and music shares published.

One of the computers in my network cannot use the printer I connected to the NAS.

• You must install the printer driver on each computer that will use the printer.
• Check Section 28.4 on page 340 and check for related connectivity issues.

28.12 Some Features' Screens Do Not Display

Many NAS features require a valid internal volume.

Features like the print server, download service, FTP and Windows/CIFS access will not work without a valid internal volume. Make sure you have a volume on an internal disk and that the volume is in the healthy state.

• Install an internal disk if one is not installed yet or has failed. See the Quick Start Guide for how to install an internal disk.
• Create a new volume if you do not have one on the internal disk yet.
• Make sure the volume on the installed internal disk is in a healthy state.

I cannot use some applications in the Web Configurator.

• The firmware installed in your NAS includes the features mentioned in Section 10.8 on page 122. This does not include the applications you can install using the Package Management screen.
• You can use the Package Management screen (Chapter 18 on page 246) to install more applications from a web location (specified in the firmware) to your NAS.
• If you have installed the application and can see the application's configuration screen but still cannot use it, check that you have Enabled the application.

28.13 Media Server Functions

I set the media server function to publish a folder, but some of the files in the folder do not display in the list on the media client.

Files with formats that are not supported on the media server may not display in the list. See page 354 for the file formats that the media server supports.

I published a folder with the media server function, but the media client does not play some of the files (or does not play them properly).

1 Files with formats that are not supported on the media server may not display in the list. See page 354 for the file formats that the media server supports.
2 If you are using media client software, you may need to install codecs on your computer. Since the media client software uses your computer's installed codecs, files do not play if the required codec is not installed on your computer.
3 The media client may not support the file's format.

iTunes does not display the names of all the music files I just put on the NAS.

1 Make sure the files are a format supported by iTunes. See page 354.
2 Go to Applications > Media Server. Make sure the share containing the music files is published and the iTunes server option is enabled.
3 If an iTunes client is connected, the NAS's iTunes server function scans the published media server folders for files every three minutes. Leave iTunes connected to the NAS for three minutes. Then use the NAS's eject button (as shown next) to disconnect.

5 Another way to get the NAS's iTunes server function to scan the published media server folders for files is to go to Applications > Media Server and disable and re-enable the iTunes server option. If you uploaded many files, it may take awhile for the NAS to find and list all of them. Then try reconnecting your iTunes client.

I cannot use iTunes to play files located on my NAS.

1 Make sure the files are a format supported by iTunes. See page 354.
2 If you have files from the iTunes Store that use DRM, you need to use your Apple account ID and password to authorize other computers to play the files. Apple permits you to authorize up to five computers at a time. To authorize a computer, open iTunes and click Store > Authorize Computer.

3 If you are connecting through a NAT router, make sure that TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 are open for traffic on both the server and the client and all points in between (especially the NAT router). If your router includes a firewall, make sure it also allows TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 traffic.

28.14 Download Service Functions

The download list items are missing after I removed a hard drive.

The NAS's download list is stored on the system volume. If you have two JBOD volumes, it is possible to remove one and still use the other. However if you remove the system volume, you may lose the download list. With two JBOD volumes, the hard disk that was installed first is usually the system volume.

I cannot find the download files.

By default, the Download Service feature stores downloaded files as follows:

• P2P download jobs are stored in /*/incoming (where ‘*’ is a folder that you have set.)
• HTTP/FTP jobs are stored in /* (where '*' is a folder that you have set.)
• All jobs triggered by RSS channels create the subfolder in /* using the channel name where it store all files downloaded from that channel (where ‘*’ is a folder that you have set.)

Check your Preferences in the Download Service (Section 17.7 on page 219) screens to know or configure where downloaded files are stored.

28.15 Web Publishing

A web-published share cannot be accessed by web browser from the Internet.

• Make sure the person trying to access the share is using the correct web address (and port number if the NAS's web publishing feature is not using port 80). See page 240 for details.
• Make sure the publishing feature is turned on and the share is in the list of published shares.
• Make sure the person trying to access the share is using Internet Explorer 6.0 (and later) or Firefox 1.07 (and later).

• You need to use a public address to access the NAS's web-published shares from the Internet. If your NAS uses a private IP address, use the public IP address of your Internet gateway (firewall) and configure NAT or port forwarding on your Internet gateway and possibly firewall rules in order to let people access the NAS's web-published shares from the Internet.

• Make sure the firewall's public IP address is static or that the firewall uses a Dynamic Domain Name (DDNS).

• Web publishing uses TCP protocol and the port number you specify. Make sure there is not another service using TCP protocol with the same port number.
• If Firefox access to the share does not work, check that you did not set the Web publishing feature to use one of the following ports. (Firefox blocks these ports by default.)

• Make sure your ISP allows you to run a server and is not blocking the port number of the NAS's web publishing feature.

28.16 Auto Upload

The NAS does not automatically upload files to Flickr or YouTube.

1 Make sure the NAS is connected to the Internet. See Section 10.4 on page 107 for details about testing network connections.
2 Click Maintenance > Log to check the NAS's log for a message about the file.

2a If the log message displays "no such file or directory", the file may have been removed from the NAS. Make sure the file still exists in the watch folder.

2b If the log message displays "filename is queued", the file may still be waiting for auto upload. Check the grace period setting in the service's Configuration screen. You can set a smaller grace period to shorten the queue time.

2c If you cannot find any log messages about the file:

• Make sure the Folder Watch List includes the folder containing the file. You can upload the file to the watch folder again.
• Make sure the file's format is supported by Flickr or YouTube. You can find the supported file extensions in the Folder Watch List.

2d If the log message displays "not authorized yet", check if you can enter the NAS's Configuration screen for the service. If you changed the password of your Flickr or YouTube account, you cannot access the service's Configuration screen, and the NAS cannot auto upload files. Make sure you also update the account information in the NAS.

3 Make sure the file size does not exceed the limit imposed by the service. At the time of writing, Flickr restricts the file size to 10 MB, and YouTube restricts the file size to 100 MB.
4 Make sure you did not exceed the service's upload quota. Flickr and YouTube have different policies about how much you can upload within a certain period, for example, 100 MB/week.
5 The NAS may have temporarily failed to connect to the service. You can upload the file to the watch folder again.

28.17 Package Management

The NAS won't install the package(s) I selected in the Package Management screen.

• The web location of the package may be undergoing maintenance. Try again at a later time. Upgrade the firmware of the NAS.
• If a new firmware is available, do an upgrade and try installing the package(s) again.

I want to know how my hard disk is performing.

Use S.M.A.R.T. (Self Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) to monitor hard disks. It detects and reports the reliability of hard disks using standard indicators, enabling administrators to anticipate possible disk failures.

28.18 Backups

I cannot make a backup.

• Check that enough space is available on the external disk. If there isn't you may need to purge older backups or delete other files on the backup USB disk or NAS.
• If you are using the Backup screen (Section 27.3 on page 321):
• You can look at the Backup screen's Last Run Result display.
• If you're backing up to another NAS or a computer, check that it allows the NAS to write files to it. For a synchronization backup, the target must be another NAS or another compatible model.
• Check that the NAS is not performing another backup job. Scheduler queues backups when a different backup is already going on at the time a backup is scheduled.

The backup does not run at the time configured.

• Check that the correct time is configured on the NAS.
• Check that the NAS is able to access the time server from which it gets the time; see Section 16.6 on page 210.

28.19 Google Drive

Google Drive stopped syncing.

1 Make sure the NAS is connected to the Internet. See Section 10.4 on page 107 for details about testing network connections.
2 Check if you have exceeded the Google Drive account's storage quota. You may need to:
- Delete unneeded files.
- Empty the Google Drive trash bin. Note, this permanently deletes everything in the bin, even if Google moved it there without telling you (because you moved a file out of the local sync folder for example).
- Upgrade the account's capacity
3 Click Maintenance > Log to check the NAS's log messages. If a log message says you have exceeded your storage quota on the NAS:
- Delete unneeded files.
- Clean out the recycle bin (see Section 24.4.2 on page 296).
- Increase the user's quota on the volume containing the local sync folder (see Section 22.3.2 on page 283).
4 Check for any logs about removal of the user account. When you remove a user's NAS account, the NAS also removes the link to the user's Google account. However the NAS keeps the data in the local sync folder. Reconfigure a user account and link it to the Google account to let the user use Google Drive again.
