D-Link DNS-343 NAS Enclosure
The D-Link® 4-Bay Network Storage Enclosure (DNS-343) is the perfect way to store, share, and safeguard your documents, music, videos, and photos. With the D-Link tool-less installation, you can easily insert up to 4 SATA drives1 without any tools or attaching any cables. Plus, the DNS-343 is a scalable solution, allowing you to start off with one SATA hard disk drive (HDD) and add up to 3 more as you grow.

Protection, Performance and Flexibility
By supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, and JBOD, the DNS-343 gives you a variety of data protection options to help avoid data loss due to hard drive failure. RAID 0 combines all drives in a ‘striped’ configuration, splitting data evenly across the hard drives to provide the highest performance. RAID 1 causes two drives to mirror each other, providing maximum protection. If there are four drives present, you can set up two separate RAID 1 partitions. If one drive fails, the unaffected drive in the partition will continue to operate normally. Once you replace the failed drive, RAID 1 mirroring will resume and both drives will mirror each other again. Advanced RAID 5 offers the highest performance with the most reliable data recovery in the case of a drive failure. RAID 5 technology uses a clever algorithm to distribute your data over 4 SATA hard disk drives and, in the case of a hard drive failure, the DNS-343 will continue to function with your data intact.

Simplified Management
With the included Memeo™ software, you can create schedules and rules including real-time full or incremental backups and storage quotas for specific users and groups. Using Memeo backup software, you can automatically back up your data onto the DNS-343, creating a failsafe protection solution from accidental data loss on your PC. The 4-Bay Network Storage Enclosure features an OLED to display important information including IP address, hard drive statistics, temperature, RAID status, and server status (FTP and UPnP™).

USB Port Functionality
The USB port can act as a print server port, allowing a USB printer to be added to your network without the need for a dedicated computer. The USB port can also support a Universal Power Supply (UPS) monitor that supports ‘smart’ signaling over a USB connection. If a power outage were to occur, the compatible UPS monitor would allow the UPS unit to safely shut down the DNS-343. When power is restored, the UPS monitor would then automatically power up the DNS-343.

For flexible usage, the DNS-343 includes features such as a built-in FTP server2 to access files over the Internet and a UPnP™ Media server to stream digital content to compatible media players. With RAID 5 technology, an OLED that displays vital storage information, a management program that allows you to easily set rules and schedules, and a variety of built-in servers, the 4-Bay Network Storage Enclosure (DNS-343) is a secure expandable and reliable storage solution for the home and business.

First of all, upgrade the firmware to 1.04, which is beta at this time. Version 1.03 locks up every day or so. Performance is on the slow side with RAID5, but I have 6TB of backup storage. Overall, it does what its suppose to and the added features like the email alerts, print server, UPS connectivity and OLED make it a comparable unit to my previous unit that was just 2-bay, for the same price!

Although a little pricey, I do love this little baby, because of what it does. It gives you Raid in different versions. Easy setup and no problems yet. If your doing a web ftp it's not free but an affordable premium price yearly of thirty bucks.

This is the best device out there for the price and number of bays. I've purchased 2 of them for extreme redundancy first one running at RAID 0 for performance and the second one holding all data from the first as a backup. not one issue yet.


Well worth the price

I purchased this product 2 months ago and have been totally happy. I recieved the product within 2 days of ordering and had it set up that evening. The setup instructions are easy to follow and seem to be very complete. To longest part of the process was waiting for the drives to format. I installed 4 500GB harddrives in RAID5. After the overhead for raid, OS, FTP and print servers I had over 1.4 TB of usable storage space. I use it to share media files and documents across my home network with no issues.


Excellent Home NAS!!

Bought this a few months ago. Does most of what I expected it to do. It is flawless in its network file sharing capability. I have Ubuntu, Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7 machines as well as two OSX systems, all work extremely well with this NAS. Most recent firmware includes Vista 64bit support. My favorite feature is the iTunes music server which is one of the primary reasons I bought it. Only 4 stars because I couldn't get the UPS monitor or the Print Server functionality working with my setup. Otherwise the device is rock solid and has been running almost continuously for 7 months without freezing or crashing.
