Protect

RAID technology to protect your data in the event of a hard drive failure 4 different modes to choose from:

• Standard mode creates two separately accessible hard drives.
• JBOD combines both drives in a linear fashion for maximum space efficiency.
• RAID 0 combines both drives in a ’striped’ configuration, splitting data evenly across the hard drives to provide the highest performance.
• RAID 1 causes two drives to mirror each other, providing maximum protection. If one drive fails, the unaffected drive in the partition will continue to operate normally. Once you replace the failed drive, RAID 1 mirroring will resume and both drives will mirror each other again.

Manage

• Create a failsafe protection solution from accidental data loss on your PC
• Automatically back up your data
• Set schedules and rules with incremental backups and storage quotas for specific users and groups.
• Built-in Remote Backup application allows you to backup your ShareCenter device to a second device at an off-site location

1. Hard drive(s) not included with DNS-325 model. DNS-325-110 includes 1 x 1TB SATA drive. An internal 3.5" SATA drive is required to store or share files and must be formatted before use. RAID 0 and RAID 1 require the use of two (2) SATA drives. To avoid drive incompatibility in RAID 0 or RAID 1 operation, use SATA drives from the same manufacturer. Formatted drive capacity for RAID 1 operation is dependent on the drive capacity of the lower-sized drive. May not work with older generation SATA drives. For a list of SATA drives that have been tested to work with the DNS-325 visit the FAQs section.
2. Use of an FTP Server over the Internet does not provide secure or encrypted transmissions, unless the end user enables SSL authentication in their FTP client.
3. D-Link cannot guarantee full compatibility or proper playback with all codecs. Playback capability depends on the codec support of the UPnP AV media player.
4. D-Link makes no warranty as to the availability, reliability, functionality, and operation of the iTunes Server feature.
5. Computer must adhere to Microsoft’s recommended System Requirements.
