Accessing the DAR300’s hard drive on the network

Of the various options for accessing the DAR300's hard drive from a PC, perhaps the easiest way is by using the "Browse computer" function.

In the Control Panel, click on “Search” and then select “Computers or people”. Enter “DAR300” as the computer name and then click on “Search”. The DAR300 is displayed on the right side after a few seconds.

Double-click on the "DAR300" icon in the results window to display the content of the DAR300 hard drive in the Windows Explorer.

You can now access the directories, files and file properties with the mouse and keyboard as usual. You can also copy any files from your PC hard drive to the DAR300 hard drive (e.g. drag-n-drop, i.e. by "dragging" the files from one window to another).

Please note the basic file structure of the DAR300.

All audio files are located in the "Music" directory. When copying music files, make sure that you copy them into this directory or a subdirectory of this main folder. Otherwise, your music files will not be included in the music database of the DAR300.

All picture files are located in the "Photo" directory. When copying picture files, make sure that you copy them into this directory or a subdirectory of this main folder. Otherwise, your picture files will not be included in the photo database of the DAR300.

Any files can be in the "Files" directory, e.g. video files that should be played on video network players. The DAR300 does not see the "Files" directory. You can save files of any type there and also use the DAR300 hard drive as a backup drive.

Note: The DAR300 can only see audio files (MP3, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC and WAV) on the „Music“ drive and picture files (bmp, jpg, Tiff, gif, png) on the “Photo” drive.

!Note: These three main directories cannot be renamed.
