• NetWare Service
If you wish to use NetWare to access the LevelOne NAS, you must activate the NetWare
service. The LevelOne NAS will then operate in a manner similar to a Novell NetWare
3.12 file server.
• Web Service
Other than standard OS support, you have the choice to use a web browser to access your
files on the LevelOne NAS. If your LevelOne NAS is connected to the Internet and uses
a valid IP address, the LevelOne NAS allows you to access your files using a web
browser from anywhere in the world.
• FTP Service
If you wish to download files from or upload files to your LevelOne NAS by using file
transfer protocol (FTP), you must first activate the FTP service.
Disk Configuration
The LevelOne NAS can accommodate a maximum of four disks. The Disk Volume can be
configured according to your needs.
• Single Disk
You can choose to use a stand-alone disk. However, if the disk is damaged, all data will
be lost.
• RAID 5 Disk Volume
Three or more hard disks can be teamed up to form a large-capacity RAID 5 disk group.
This system will distribute and store data among its various member disks as it is received.
At the same time it uses an amount of space roughly equivalent to a whole disk to store
reference numbers with the same elements. Should one of the disks in the group suffer
some kind of damage, you can shut down the computer and install a new disk, and the
system will restore the data on the new disk using the reference number. In addition, if
you have a system with four disks but use only three in your RAID 5 group, the fourth
will serve as a backup disk. If one of the three disks is damaged the system will
automatically start using the spare disk without powering down and changing the affected
disk. Generally speaking, the capacity of a RAID 5 disk group is one disk’s worth of
space less than the total rated capacity of the group.
Note. RAID 5 may be used only with equipment which has three or more disks.
• RAID 1 Mirroring Disk Volume
Mirroring Disk protects your data by automatically backing up the contents of one disk
onto the second disk of a mirrored pair. This protects your data if one of the disks fails.
Unfortunately, the storing capacity is equal to a single disk, as the second drive is used to
automatically back up the first. Mirroring Disk is suitable for personal or corporate use to
store important data.
