6 Getting Started Guide
NOTE: If your system is pre-configured with software RAID 5, the system
performs a RAID synchronization to optimize the array. The process runs in the
background and may affect your overall system performance until it completes.
If the system is powered off before the process completes, RAID
synchronization will begin again when the system is powered up and continue
until it completes.

Entering the Default Administrator User Name
and Password
When logging into the NAS system for the first time, you must enter an
administrator user name and password. The default administrator user
name for your NAS system is administrator and the default password
is storageserver.
Configuring the Network IP Address
for the NAS System
If you have a DHCP server on your network, you are not required to
configure your NAS system’s IP address because DHCP automatically
assigns an address to the NAS system. If your network is not configured
with a DHCP server, configure the NAS system’s IP address through
the Network Configuration window.
To access the Network Configuration window, click Start and select
Settings→ Control Panel→ Network Configuration.
