Introduction
Congratulations on your new TeraStation! Your TeraStation Pro is a powerful file server that’s
as easy to use as a hard drive. With its straightforward configuration GUI, anyone can easily
configure the TeraStation’s settings. You don’t even necessarily need to configure it at all;
right out of the box it’s ready to be plugged in and put to work. But the TeraStation remains
a fast, reliable Linux-based server, with four huge hard drives that may be configured in
RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 10 arrays. It also includes SAMBA 3.0, allowing it to join
Active Directory domains, download users, passwords, and groups, and keep them up to
date. This user manual is intended to assist you in configuring your new TeraStation.
Because we’re constantly updating our product, the images and text in this manual may vary
slightly from the images and text displayed by your TeraStation. These changes are minor
and should not affect the ease of setup adversely. As time passes, future user interfaces,
updated software, and later versions of this manual may be freely available for download at
