Instant GigaCD Server

Introduction

The Linksys EtherFast Instant GigaCD Server

With 20 gigabytes of storage space, the Instant GigaCD Server can save valu- able time and space by sharing your favorite CD-ROMs. Faster and less cum- bersome than a standard CD-ROM jukebox, the Instant GigaCD Server allows your CD-ROM data to become simultaneously available to multiple network users. Upload frequently-used CDs, graphic storage CDs, standard audio CDs, games, or any other high-demand CD and avoid having to locate it or swap it out with a co-worker.

You don’t have a CD-ROM drive installed on your network PC? No problem. Just access the Instant GigaCD Server and use the CD data there. Configurable from your web browser and accessible from your Network Neighborhood, the EtherFast Instant GigaCD Server saves time, money and valuable workstation space.
