Chapter 4 Web Configurator Basics • Total capacity: Sum of the member disks • Advantages: Maximum storage capacity, especially for disks of mixed sizes. Flexibility (you can add disks to the JBOD • Disadvantages: Not as fast or reliable as RAID. JBOD allows you to combine multiple physical disk drives into a single virtual one, so they appear as a single large disk. JBOD can be used to turn several different-sized drives into one big drive.
Chapter 4 Web Configurator Basics RAID 1 RAID 1 creates an exact copy (or mirror) of a set of data on another disk. This is useful when data backup is more important than data capacity. The following figure shows two disks in a single RAID 1 array with mirrored data. Data is duplicated across two disks, so if one disk fails, there is still a copy of the data.
Chapter 4 Web Configurator Basics capacity of the array is the capacity of the smallest drive (1TB, 1TB, 2TB, 2TB) * (Number of disks - 2) = 1TB * (4-2) = 2TB. The remaining space (2 TB) is unused. Table 24 RAID 6 RAID 6 A1 A2 AP AQ B1 BP BQ B2 CP CQ C1 C2 DQ D1 D2 DP DISK 1 DISK 2 DISK 3 DISK 4 RAID 10 RAID 10 (RAID 1+0) is a nested RAID where two RAID 1 arrays are stored on the physical disks with a RAID 0 array on top. It is a stripe of mirrors.
Chapter 4 Web Configurator Basics following example shows data stripped across three disks (A1 to A3 in the first strip for example) with parity information (AP) on the fourth disk.

C HAPTER 21 Troubleshooting 21.1 Troubleshooting Overview This chapter offers some suggestions to solve problems you might encounter. The potential problems are divided into the following categories.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting • Turn the NAS off and on. • If the problem continues, contact the vendor. An HDD LED is off. The HDD LED is off when the NAS cannot detect a hard drive in the drive bay. Replace or install a hard drive. See Installing or replacing a hard disk. An HDD LED is red. Red means that the NAS detected an error on the hard drive (like a bad sector for example). The NAS automatically tries to recover a bad sector, but the LED stays red until the NAS restarts.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting • Make sure the Ethernet cable is connected properly to the NAS and connected to another (Ethernet) device. Make sure the other device is turned on. If it’s connected directly to a computer, make sure that the computer network card is working (ping 127.0.0.1 on the computer). • Use another Ethernet cable. If you’re connecting to a Gigabit Ethernet, make sure you’re using an 8-wire Ethernet cable. • If the problem continues, contact the vendor.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting The NAS Starter Utility discovered my NAS but the status is always unreachable, even though I can access it. You may need to add the NAS Starter Utility to your software firewall’s allow list or lower your software firewall or anti-virus scanner’s security level. Alternatively you may have to configure your software firewall or other security software to allow UDP port 50127 traffic from the NAS.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting • If you are trying to login directly by typing the server name into your web browser’s address field, make sure you are using the correct server name as the web site address. • The default server name is ‘NAS’ followed by the number of your model (‘NAS540’ for example). If you have changed the server name, use the new one. • If the server name has been changed and you do not know the new server name, see the troubleshooting suggestions for I forgot the server name of the NAS.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting 1 In Internet Explorer, click Tools, Internet Options and then the Security tab. Figure 184 Internet Options: Security 2 Click the Custom Level... button. 3 Under Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting, make sure that Enable is selected (the default). 4 Click OK to close the window.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting I can see the login screen, but I cannot log in to the NAS. • Make sure you have entered the username and password correctly. The default username is admin, and the default password is 1234. These fields are case-sensitive, so make sure [Caps Lock] is not on. • Turn the NAS off and on. • If this does not work, see Section 1.1.5 on page 17 to reset the device. I cannot see the multi-language web configurator screens while using Internet Explorer. Use Section 21.4.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting • In Windows XP or 2000, click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network Connections (Network and Dial-up Connections in Windows 2000/NT) > Local Area Connection > Properties. • Check that Client for Microsoft Networks is in the list of components and has its check box selected. 21.6 Users Cannot Access the NAS A local user cannot access a share • Check that the NAS is turned on and connected to the network.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting • Check the NAS’s DNS setting. The DNS server the NAS is using must be able to resolve the domain controller’s address. If the domain controller uses a private IP address, the NAS needs to use a private DNS server. If the domain controller uses a public IP address, the NAS needs to use a public DNS server. • Leave the domain and re-join it. A domain user can’t access a share.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting Replacing smaller disks in a RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 6 with larger capacity hard disks did not expand the storage capacity. The NAS normally expands the storage capacity by itself after rebuilding the RAID but may not if the NAS rebooted during the RAID re-build. After the re-build finishes, go to the Storage screens and select the volume or disk group and click Manage and use Expand the volume with unallocated disk space. 21.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting 2 Enter \\nas followed by the number of your model (540 for example) or the Server Name you assigned the NAS. This shows you the folders in the NAS. 3 Use drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste to transfer files from your NAS to your local computer’s folder or your storage device. • You can download the files from your NAS. Just click on the file(s) in the Share Browsing screen (Section 4.5.5 on page 79). Your computer will prompt you for the location where you want to save the file.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting I cannot use some applications in the Web Configurator. • The firmware installed in your NAS includes the features mentioned in Section 4.6.2 on page 87. This does not include the applications you can install using the Package Management screen. • You can use the Package Management screen (Chapter 11 on page 227) to install more applications from a web location (specified in the firmware) to your NAS.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting 3 If an iTunes client is connected, the NAS’s iTunes server function scans the published media server folders for files every three minutes. Leave iTunes connected to the NAS for three minutes. Then use the NAS’s eject button (as shown next) to disconnect. Figure 186 iTunes Eject Button 4 Then click the NAS’s link to reconnect.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting 2 If you have files from the iTunes Store that use DRM, you need to use your Apple account ID and password to authorize other computers to play the files. Apple permits you to authorize up to five computers at a time. To authorize a computer, open iTunes and click Store > Authorize Computer.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting • Make sure the person trying to access the share is using Internet Explorer 6.0 (and later) or Firefox 1.07 (and later). • You need to use a public address to access the NAS’s web-published shares from the Internet.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting 1 Make sure the NAS is connected to the Internet. See Section 9.4 on page 175 for details about testing network connections. 2 Click Maintenance > Log to check the NAS’s log for a message about the file. 2a If the log message displays “no such file or directory”, the file may have been removed from the NAS. Make sure the file still exists in the watch folder. 2b If the log message displays “filename is queued”, the file may still be waiting for auto upload.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting 21.18 Backups I cannot make a backup. • Check that enough space is available on the external disk. If there isn’t you may need to purge older backups or delete other files on the backup USB disk or NAS. • If you are using the Backup screen (Section 20.3 on page 307): • You can look at the Backup screen’s Last Run Result display. • If you’re backing up to another NAS or a computer, check that it allows the NAS to write files to it.
Chapter 21 Troubleshooting • Increase the user’s quota on the volume containing the local sync folder (see Section 15.3.2 on page 263). 4 344 Check for any logs about removal of the user account. When you remove a user’s NAS account, the NAS also removes the link to the user’s Google account. However the NAS keeps the data in the local sync folder. Reconfigure a user account and link it to the Google account to let the user use Google Drive again.
