D-Link DNS-313 ShareCenter Solo 1-Bay Network Storage Enclosure

Introduction

The D-Link DNS-313 1-Bay Network Storage Enclosure enables you to share your documents, photos, music, and videos across the network and on the Internet (via an FTP server) so that family members, friends, or employees can access them at any time.

This enclosure, which can hold one 3.5” SATA hard drive of any capacity, creates a central network point for backing up valuable files. The DNS-313 shares files over the Internet via the built-in FTP server. Users and groups can be created and assigned to folders with either read or read/write permissions. In addition, the DNS-313 can be used to stream photos, music, and videos to UPnP AV-compatible network media players.

The included CD contains D-Link’s Easy Search Utility. After the initial installation and hard drive formatting are completed, this utility allows you to locate the DNS-313 on the network and map drives to your computer. Backup software is also included on the CD. This software allows you to back up your files from a computer to the DNS-313 manually, by a schedule, or in real-time. Real-time backups are a great way to safeguard against unfortunate accidents that may result in the loss of important files. Combining ease of use with practical, high-performance features, the DNS-313 is an organized solution for any network. Free up disk space on computers and centralize data on your network with the DNS-313 1-Bay Network Storage Enclosure.

Note: Please insert an Ethernet cable from your router to the DNS-313 and run the installation wizard included in the CD whenever you install a new Hard Drive to the DNS-313. When first powered on, during the initial boot sequence, the DNS-313 will wait to be assigned an IP address via DHCP. If it does not receive a DHCP-assigned IP address, by default it will have a self-assigned IP address of 192.168.0.32.
