NAS Management

Manage the main functions of the shared storage from this menu.

HD Initialization Wizard

The first time you use the NAS, you may have to initialize the hard disk. The wizard provides an easy way to initialize the hard disk.

By enabling SMART, the NAS will report when the hard drive is about to fail. Your hard drive must support this feature.

The HD Power Management should be enabled to prolong the life of the hard drive. When there is no activity for the set time period, the hard drive will power down to conserve power, save wear and tear, and prevent the unit from building up unnecessary heat. When a user wants to access the storage, the NAS will automatically wake up.

The status will show Ready when the hard drive is initialized. Click on the Initialize button to begin the initialization process.

Click OK to the warning message to continue the process.
