Includes:: a web file server which means that you can download your documents, photos, & other multimedia files from anywhere. Once configured, simply log into your Share Center™ using the friendly web user interface to view a listing of available files. A convenient USB (Universal Serial Bus) port on the front of the Share Center™ can be used to attach external USB (Universal Serial Bus) storage drives, USB (Universal Serial Bus) printers, or an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for monitoring. Enjoy Performance, Protection, & Flexibility The availability of four different hard drive modes (Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1) allows users to choose the configuration best suited to their needs. Standard mode creates two separately accessible hard drives. JBOD combines both drives to create a single, easy to use volume. RAID 0 combines both drives in a “striped” configuration, which provides the highest performance when using a Gigabit Ethernet connection. RAID 1 creates a copy of your data on both drives, providing maximum protection; if one drive fails while configured as RAID 1, the unaffected drive continues to function as a single drive until the failed drive is replaced. The new drive will then be re-mirrored, allowing the Share Center™ to return to its full level of protection.
