Network Information:
Displays the current IP address and
the MAC address of your network drive.
The DHCP server should be disabled in order not to interfere
with your existing DHCP server. In most circumstances, your
router will be assigning the IP addresses or in a company, a
dedicated DHCP server might already be running.
When the network drive is connected directly to your
computer via patch cable but without a router, the DHCP
server will be turned on. This will allow you to connect to the
network drive without crossover cable.
•
Service Information:
By default, both Samba and FTP
services are enabled, allowing you to transfer files via FTP or
mount the network drive using SMB.
If you only use one of these services, we recommend
disabling the other one for security reasons. You can always
enable it again in the future.
•
Disk Information:
Displays details about the installed hard
drive and the capacity.
If you do not see any details, it is possible that the drive has
not yet been installed or it has not been recognised because
it has not yet been formatted. Make sure the hard drive has
been installed properly and then use the disk utility to format
it.
