Security Lock

Media Serving

With the Shared Storage Drive’s Media Serving capabilities, you can view videos or photos and listen to music on your home entertainment center without ever turning on your computer. The Media Server feature is disabled by default on the Shared Storage Drive.

Once your Shared Storage Drive is properly connected to your network, you can copy music, movies, or videos directly to it. Next, connect an UPnP™ AV compatible digital media adapter (DMA) through your router, and your home network becomes a home entertainment center.
