Chapter 2 - Hardware Installation

For the download function to work, an internal drive has to be installed. Depending on the model, this can be following:

DS5-OE

3.5” IDE drive up to 750GB

2.5” IDE drive (requires HDD module) CF card (requires CF module)

DS5

2.5” IDE drive (requires HDD module) CF card (requires CF module)

DS5M

3.5” SATA drive up to 750GB 2.5” SATA drive

Note: The DS5 only supports the FAT32 file system or for CF cards also FAT16. Make sure your hard drive is formatted using FAT32 before you install it. If formatted using NTFS, the DS5 will be able to read from the drive but will not be able to write to it!

1.Prepare your hard drive and format it using FAT32.

2.Install the drive or CF card and make sure all cables are connected.

3.Switch the power on your DS5 to ON, and wait for the system to boot.

4.If you already have some media files on the drive, you will now be able to access them from the file library.

5.If the drive is still empty, use the File Copy command in the Setup menu to copy new files from an external USB drive to the internal HDD or CF card.
