USB Storage Expansion
The Thecus IP storage supports external USB hard disks through its USB ports.
Once a USB hard disk is successfully mounted, the entire volume will be linked
automatically to the default USB HDD folder. The Thecus IP storage supports USB
external storage devices. All file names on the USB disk volume are case sensitive.
Before attaching a USB disk drive to Thecus IP storage, you have to partition and
format it on a desktop computer or a notebook first. The attached device will be
located at
\\192.168.1.100\usbhdd\sd(x)1
where
192.168.1.100
means the IP
address of Thecus IP storage and
sd(x)1
stands for the first partition on the USB
disk drive.
Remote Administration
You can set up your Thecus IP storage for remote administration. With remote
administration, you can access your Thecus IP storage over the Internet, even if
your Thecus IP storage is behind a router. This is especially useful if you are
traveling and suddenly need a file from your Thecus IP storage.
Setting up remote administration is a three-part process, and will require the
following equipment:
Thecus IP storage device
Cable / DSL Router with Dynamic DNS support
Home PC
Internet Connection
NOTE
Router setup will differ slightly depending on router used. For this example,
we will use the Asus WL500g because it has support for Dynamic DNS.
Contact your router hardware vendor for setup help.
