• SMART - Use S.M.A.R.T. (Self Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) to monitor hard
disks. It detects and reports the reliability of hard disks using standard indicators, enabling
administrators to anticipate possible disk failures.
• SqueezeCenter - This enables you to manage a Logitech's Squeezebox device connected to the
NSA.
• Syslog - Use this to configure the NSA to accept syslog logs from syslog clients.
• TFTP - Use this to configure the NSA to accept log files from TFTP clients.
• Transmission - This Bit Torrent client supports adding tasks through torrent files and magnet
links.
• Wordpress - This allows you to create and manage a blog. Use the NSA administrator
credentials to log in. The administrator can then create accounts for other users.
• eMule - eMule is an open-source peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing application similar to eDonkey,
which can be used to download files from the Internet. It uses the Kad protocol.
• pyLoad - Use this to have the NAS manage your downloads including those from one-click
hosting sites. One-click hosting sites allow Internet users to easily upload files to the one-click
host's server so others can download them.

Windows/CIFS
Common Internet File System (CIFS) is a standard protocol supported by most operating systems
in order to share files across the network.
• CIFS is included by default in Windows operating systems.
• You can use Samba with Linux to use CIFS.
• CIFS transfers use security.
Time Lag
Time lag occurs when the time on the NSA falls behind the time on the time server. This may
happen if:
• the time server is no longer reachable
• if the NSA is shut down often (the NSA internal battery keeps time when the NSA is shut down
and this may cause possible variance)
• power surges occur.
The NSA gives no warning if time lag occurs. You should resynchronize the time after a power surge
or after you have shut down the NSA several times.
