1D-Link ShareCenter DNS-320L User Manual

Section 1 - Product Overview

SAFELY SHARE DIGITAL FILES LOCALLY AND OVER THE INTERNET

The D-Link DNS-320L 2-Bay Network Storage, when used with internal SATA drives1, enables you to share documents, les,

and digital media such as music, photos, and video with everyone on the home or oce network. Remotely accessing les

through the Internet is also possible with the built-in FTP server. Whether you are allowing access locally or over the Internet,

keep data safe by only giving rights to specic users or groups. When conguring the DNS-320L, you can create users and

groups and assign them to folders with either read, read/write or deny permissions.

This is ideal for an oce environment with employee-specic sensitive data or for the home where you can ensure your children

will only have access to age appropriate material. The DNS-320L will be accessable from any computer (PC, MAC, or Linux) on

your network, without the need to install any software on the computer.

STREAM DIGITAL MEDIA CONTENT TO UPnP AV COMPATIBLE MEDIA PLAYERS

Back up your music, photo, and video collections to the DNS-320L for safekeeping. Then, enjoy the benets of the built-in UPnP

AV media server as you stream digital content to compatible media players2 (such as those found in D-Link’s MediaLounge

product line). This feature is highly convenient as it allows you to turn o a computer that would normally be needed for the

same function.

PROTECTION, PERFORMANCE, AND FLEXIBILITY

The availability of four dierent hard drive modes (Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, RAID1) allows you to choose the conguration

best suited to your needs. Standard mode creates two separately accessible hard drives. JBOD combines both drives in linear

fashion for maximum space eciency. RAID 0 combines both drives in a ‘striped’ conguration, which provides the highest

performance when using a Gigabit Ethernet connection. RAID 1 causes the drives to mirror each other, providing maximum

protection. If one drive fails while congured as RAID 1, the unaected drive continues to function as a single drive until the

failed drive is replaced. The new drive will then be re-mirrored, allowing the DNS-320L to return to its full protection.

To further enhance your ShareCenter’s capabilities, the DNS-320L supports a proprietary mydlink service, provided to D-Link

customers only, serves as a portal to those users who wish to access their data from any location. mydlink.com portal service

supports list, download, upload or delete les/folders and can see the status of a ShareCenter from any location via web browser.

Product Overview

1 Hard Drive(s) not included.

2 D-Link cannot guarantee full compatibility or proper playback with all codecs. Playback capability depends on the codec support of the UPnP™ AV media player.

6D-Link ShareCenter DNS-320L User Manual

Section 1 - Product Overview

Checking the Hardware Requirements

To use your DNS-320L, you will need at least one hard drive. If you plan to use RAID 1, which protects your data against one

hard drive failure, you will need two hard drives.

This section will help you:

•Selecttheharddrives

•Determineharddiskspaceyouwillneed

•Ensureyourdataisprotected

•Understandthebasicrequirementsforarouterorswitch

Selecting Hard Drives:

You can use hard drives from any manufacturer and with any capacity with your DNS-320L. The D-Link ShareCenter supports

standard3.5”internalSATAdrives.Ifyouareunsure,askyouradministratororharddriveretailer/manufacturertoverifythat

your hard drives meet this standard

*Warning - Any pre-existing data on the drives will be erased during installation.

Determining How Much Hard Drive Space you Need:

In order to protect your data from hard drive failure, your DNS-320L requires more space than what you will use for your data,

sometimes more than double the amount of space required.

Using a Router or Switch:

If you are connecting your ShareCenter to a router or switch, your router or switch needs to support Gigabit Ethernet

(1000Mbit/s) for maximum performance. The ShareCenter will auto-negotiate the highest connection speed available to your

router or switch.

Using an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS):

We highly recommend that you use your ShareCenter in conjunction with an uninterrupted power supply (UPS), which will

protect against sudden loss in power and power surges.

Set the maximum amount of users that can connect to the FTP server.

Set the amount of time a user can remain idle before being disconnected.

Set the FTP port. Default is 21. If you are behind a router, you will need to

forward the FTP port from the router to the device. Additional ltering and

rewall settings may need to be modied on your router to allow FTP Access

to the device from the Internet. Once the port has been forwarded on the

router, users from the Internet will access the FTP server through the WAN

IP address of the router.

In situations where the device is behind a rewall and unable to accept

incoming TCP connections, passive mode must be used.

Most standard FTP clients like Windows FTP, only support Western European

code page when transferring les. Support has been added for non standard

FTP clients that are capable of supporting these character sets.

Allow you to limit the amount of bandwidth available for each user.

What is RAID?

RAID, short for Redundant Array of Independent Disks, is a combination of two or more disks with the aim of providing fault tolerance and performance

improvement. There are several dierent levels of RAID, with each one providing a dierent method of sharing or distributing data amongst the

drives. The DNS-320L supports Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, and RAID 1.

Standard provides a single volume for each

drive.

Although performance is improved, the lack of

any RAID or mirroring means that if one drive

fails, all data on the volume will be lost.

Standard JBOD JBOD allows you to create a large virtual disk drive by

concatenating two or more smaller drives together.

It oers no redundancy and limited data protection..

243D-Link ShareCenter DNS-320L User Manual

Section 5 - Knowledge Base

RAID 0 provides data striping, which spreads out

blocks of data over all the drives, but does not

provide data redundancy.

Although performance is improved, the lack of

fault tolerance means that if one drive fails, all

data in the array will be lost.

RAID 1 RAID 1 provides mirroring over multiple disks, with the

same read/write speed of a single disk. A RAID 1 array

can only be as large as it’s smallest member disk.

Because the data is stored on multiple disks,

RAID 1 provides fault tolerance and protection, in

addition to performance advantages.

RAID 0

244D-Link ShareCenter DNS-320L User Manual

Section 5 - Knowledge Base

RAID Options

Here is a list of the RAID options available on the ShareCenter DNS-320L

Standard RAID - creates a single volume for one drive or more drives.

JBOD - allows you to create a large virtual disk drive by concatenating two

or more smaller drives together. The individual hard drives that makes up

a JBOD RAID can be dierent sizes and manufacturers. The total size of

the JBOD RAID is the combined total of all the individual drives in the set.

RAID 0 - allows you to assign two or more disks as a striped set. Once you

create the striped set, you will see it as a single disk drive. But when you

write data to the RAID 0 striped set, the data will be distributed across

all of the drives that make up the set. Because each disk has less to do,

it takes less time to write the data. The same is true when reading data;

instead of a single disk having to seek out and then send a large block of

data, multiple disks each stream their part of the data stream. As a result,

RAID 0 striped sets can provide a dynamic increase in disk performance.

245D-Link ShareCenter DNS-320L User Manual

Section 5 - Knowledge Base

RAID 1 - allows you to assign two disks as a mirrored set. Once you create

the mirrored set, you will see it as a single disk drive. But when you write

data to the mirrored set, it will duplicate the data across all members of

the set. This ensures that your data is protected against loss if any hard

drive in the RAID 1 set fails. In fact, as long as any single member of the set

remains functional, you will continue to operate normally, with complete

access to your data.

The customer’s sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of D-Link and its suppliers under this Limited Warranty will be, at

D-Link’s option, to repair or replace the defective Hardware during the Warranty Period at no charge to the original owner or to refund the actual

purchase price paid. Any repair or replacement will be rendered by D-Link at an Authorized D-Link Service Oce. The replacement hardware

need not be new or have an identical make, model or part. D-Link may, at its option, replace the defective Hardware or any part thereof with any

reconditioned product that D-Link reasonably determines is substantially equivalent (or superior) in all material respects to the defective Hardware.

Repaired or replacement hardware will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period or ninety (90) days, whichever is longer,

and is subject to the same limitations and exclusions. If a material defect is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines that it is not practical

to repair or replace the defective Hardware, the actual price paid by the original purchaser for the defective Hardware will be refunded by D-Link

upon return to D-Link of the defective Hardware. All Hardware or part thereof that is replaced by D-Link, or for which the purchase price is refunded,

shall become the property of D-Link upon replacement or refund.

license granted by D-Link for the Software. Replacement Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period and is subject

to the same limitations and exclusions. If a material non-conformance is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines in its sole discretion that it

is not practical to replace the non-conforming Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non-conforming Software will be refunded by

D-Link; provided that the non-conforming Software (and all copies thereof) is rst returned to D-Link. The license granted respecting any Software

for which a refund is given automatically terminates.
