Appendix C Updating the Software and
Extending the Memory
Software Updates
The StorPoint HD software stored in Flash Memory can easily be
updated over the network. All software updates are free of charge.
Extending
the Memory
You can increase the performance of your StorPoint HD by adding
extra memory; the basic 2 Mbytes of RAM can be increased up to
32 Mbytes. The extra cache memory will speed-up data flow rates,
especially when several users are accessing the same disk.
For more information see the Technical Support Page for the AXIS
StorPoint HD on the Axis Web site.
Checking if a Software
Update is available
Contact your dealer to check if there has been any new issues of the
software. You should have your present version numbers ready to
compare against the latest software issues from Axis.
Alternatively go to the Axis Web site at http://www.axis.com/ , where
you can download the latest versions of the software. A link to the Axis
Web site is available on the StorPoint HD’s Home Page. You can also
get files and information through anonymous ftp: log in to
ftp.axis.com and go to the /pub/axis directory.
Flash Memory The software that runs your Axis StorPoint HD is stored
in Flash Memory.
This is a memory chip that, like
ordinary ROM memory, keeps its contents even when
the power is turned off. What makes it unique is the
possibility to erase its contents and write new data to it.
This means that when software updates are available
for your
StorPoint HD, you can make use of them
without having to replace any parts. The new software is
simply loaded into the StorPoint HD over the network.
