Chapter 6: Tips and Tricks
USB and eSATA Storage Expansion
The ALL69000 supports external USB hard disks through its four USB ports. Once a USB hard
disk has successfully mounted, the entire volume will be linked automatically to the default
USB HDD folder. The ALL69000 supports up to 4 USB external storage devices. All file names
on the USB disk volume are case sensitive.
The ALL69000 also supports eSATA hard disks with its eSATA port.
Before attaching an eSATA or USB disk drive to ALL69000, 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\sdf1 where 192.168.1.100 means the IP address of ALL69000 and
sdf1 stands for the first partition on disk #6, the eSATA or USB disk drive. If it is an NTFS
partition, NAS users can open or copy files from \\192.168.1.100\usbhdd\sdf1 but cannot add
new files or modify existing files.
Adding a Spare Disk
With a RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, or RAID 10 volume, you can add a spare disk after the initial
RAID is setup. To add a spare disk, follow the steps below:
1. On the RAID Configuration Screen , tick the checkbox of the hard disk you wish to
designate as a spare disk.
2. Click
Add Spare . The disk will be configured as a spare disk. The system
automatically rebuilds the spare disk when one of the disks in the RAID set fails.
Remote Administration
You can set up your ALL69000 for remote administration. With remote administration, you can
access your ALL69000 over the Internet, even if your ALL69000 is behind a router. This is
especially useful if you are traveling and suddenly need a file from your ALL69000.
Setting up remote administration is a three-part process, and will require the following
equipment:
•
ALLNET ALL69000 NAS device
•
Cable / DSL Router with Dynamic DNS support
•
Home PC
•
Internet Connection
NOTE
If you want to write to an USB storage device, the file system must be FAT32.

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.
