TORRE ETHERNET 10/100/1000 2 DISCOS (2 LIBRES)
If you deploy the DNS-323 storage enclosure in your home or office, you will be able to centrally store files on the network, ready for access locally or over the Internet.
This will allow you to benefit from the new high performance SATA technology, enabling you to back up important documents or play photo, music and video collections via a Media Player, at an affordable cost.
2-Bay Network Storage Enclosure
The D-Link DNS-323 2-Bay Network Storage Enclosure enables users at home or in the office to share documents such as music, photos and videos across the network and on the Internet, so family members, friends, or employees can gain access to them. In the office, this enclosure also provides a central network point to back up valuable files and protect them from drive failure by using the built-in RAID 1 mirroring technology. At home, this device can be used to stream music, photos and videos to UPnP AV compatible network media players1.
Convenience, Performance and Flexibility
The DNS-323 allows for up to two 3.5” SATA hard drives of any capacity. Tools or cables are not required to install the hard drive(s), simplifying the setup process significantly. Four different hard drive modes are available, allowing users and administrators to choose the configuration best suited to their needs:
- 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, which provides the highest performance, enabling speeds of up to 23MBps-read and 15MBps-write (184/120Mbps respectively) when using a Gigabit Ethernet connection3
- RAID 1: makes the drives mirror each other, for back-up purposes. If one drive fails while configured as RAID 1, the unaffected drive continues to function as a single drive until the failed drive is replaced
In addition, the DNS-323 includes a USB Print Server for printing from any computer on the network and a fan to prevent overheating.
Safe-file sharing locally or over the Internet
Based on the Internet Protocol (IP), the DNS-323 is not tied to any particular operating system and is suitable for use in Windows, MAC or Unix environments.
The DNS-323 includes an FTP server4, allowing files to be accessed remotely over the Internet. Users and/or groups may be configured and assigned to folders with either read or read/write permissions. With access rights defined in this way, data can be kept safe in either the home or office environment. Quotas can also be allocated to each user/group to limit their amount of storage.
Content Streaming To A Media Player or iTunes® Software
At home, once music, photo and video collections have been saved on to the DNS-323 for safekeeping, the built-in UPnP AV media server may be used to stream the content to compatible media players, such as those found in D-Link’s MediaLounge product line. This feature provides high levels of convenience as it does not require a computer to be turned on.
The DNS-323 also features an iTunes® Server. When enabled, the DNS-323 will be automatically detected in the iTunes program, which means the software will be able to find and play music directly from the DNS-323.
Rich software features
D-Link’s Easy Search Utility is included on the product CD. This utility allows you to locate the DNS-323 on the network, once located the utility can be used to map the hard drive(s) so that they will appear in “My Computer” on the PC. Backup software is also included. This software allows you to backup your files from a computer to the DNS-323 manually, in keeping with a schedule, or in real-time. These real-time backups are an excellent way of safeguarding against unfortunate accidents that may result in the loss of important files.
The Download Scheduling feature allows you to set up scheduled folders or file downloads from an FTP or web server and thus backup sessions.
The Power Management feature allows the drives to enter a hibernation state in order to save energy and extend hard drive life.
