The D-Link® 2TB 4-Bay Network Storage (DNS-343-2TB) is the perfect way to store, safeguard, and share your documents, music, videos, and photos with anyone in your network.
Features:
• 2TB OF STORAGE With EXTRA ROOM TO GROW
The DNS-343-2TB comes with two 1TB SATA hard drives1 - plenty of space to store up to 640,000 digital photos, 33,320 hours of digital music, or 500 two-hour DVD-quality movies2. The DNS-343-2TB is expandable and has room for two additional 3.5” hard drives1 to support your growing storage needs. Adding a drive is a breeze with the D-Link tool-less design.
• PROTECTION, PERFORMANCE AND FLEXBILITY
By supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, and JBOD, the DNS-343-2TB gives you a variety of data protection options to help avoid data loss due to hard drive failure. RAID 0 combines all drives in a ‘striped’ configuration, splitting data evenly across the hard drives to provide the highest performance. RAID 1 causes two drives to mirror each other, providing maximum protection. If there are four drives present, you can set up two separate RAID 1 partitions. If one drive fails, the unaffected drive in the partition will continue to operate normally. Once you replace the failed drive, RAID 1 mirroring will resume and both drives will mirror each other again. RAID 5 offers a combination of high performance and reliable data recovery while optimizing drive capacity usage. RAID 5 technology uses a clever algorithm to distribute data over 3 or 4 hard drives and, in the case of a hard drive failure, the DNS-343-2TB will continue to function with your data intact.
• SIMPLIFIED MANAGEMENT
The included backup software allows you to set schedules and rules including real-time full or incremental backups and storage quotas for specific users and groups. The software also allows you to automatically back up data onto the DNS-343-2TB, creating a failsafe protection solution from accidental data loss on your PC. The 2TB 4-Bay Network Storage features an OLED screen to display important information including IP address, hard drive statistics, temperature, RAID status, and server status (FTP and UPnP™).
• PRINT SERVER AND UPS MONITORING
The DNS-343-2TB includes print server functionality – just connect a USB printer to share it within your network. This eliminates the need for a dedicated computer to host a shared printer. The USB port can also be used by a compatible Universal Power Supply (UPS) that supports “smart” signaling over a USB connection. With this feature enabled, UPS status can be displayed on the DNS-343-2TB’s OLED screen. Furthermore, if a power outage were to occur, the compatible UPS can safely shutdown the DNS-343-2TB before power is completely lost. When power is restored, the UPS would then automatically power up3 the DNS-343-2TB.
• FTP AND UPnP MEDIA SERVER
For convenience, the DNS-343-2TB includes a built-in FTP server4 to access files over the Internet, allowing you to download or upload files when travelling. It also has a UPnP™ Media server5 to stream digital content to compatible media players, which effectively eliminates the need to power up a dedicated PC media server.
• THE PERFECT SOLUTION
Equipped with five different modes of RAID technology, Jumbo Frame support of up to 9000 bytes6, Gigabit connectivity, an OLED screen that displays vital storage information, a management program that allows you to easily set rules and schedules, and a variety of built-in servers, the 2TB 4-Bay Network Storage (DNS-343-2TB) with its sleek design and quiet cooling fans, is a secure, expandable and reliable, high-performance, cost-effective solution perfect for your home or small business.
