DNS-323 Network Storage

[larlee_sg]

Can we use US Firmware 1.10 for our 323 here in SG?

I have configured RAID 1 and to transfer the files out, it took me 1 week to download 150GB out of the NAS even through i am connecting at 1gb.

Is it normal that if I switch off the NAS and power it on, the HDD will resync?


Please advise.
Thanks.

May not be advisable to upgrade to 1.10:

And nope, not normal to be resyncing with each power cycle.

I had ever transferred almost 1TB from my DNS-323 on RAID 1, but took only almost 24 hours as far as I could recall.

Transfer rate was about 12MB/s, so for you, if you aren't reaching this 'still way below expectation' speed, perhaps you need to enable Jumbo Frames on your NIC and DNS-323.

I called up dlink support line just now when I was walking to SLS..thinking that it might be in SLS...and they gave me crapped answer..like no serial number cannot give me good solutions...and kept asking me to try this and that..come on..power switch cannot press means cannot press...she's kinda dumb......all this customer support knows shlt about their own product...

Ya the worst part is they speak with either a Pinoy or prc accent and become duck and chicken talk.

Called up Asus and encountered the same pinoy type of customer service, all the arrr arr arrr english really got onto my nerves.

Anyone tried the dns323 with a sata3 drive yet?

 

[andoy31]

just in case -- you're putting 4k drives in your DNS-323

patch it to firmware 1.10 Beta then configure after which patch down to firmware 1.09 (firmware 1.09 is the stable one vs 1.10)

patches are located here
ftp : //dlink.com.sg/DNS-323

Firmware 1.09

Has anyone upgraded to 1.09? I cannot find it on the DLink Singapore site and dont want to be losing data.

Can I download safely from US or Canada and install?

Thanks VM

I have not upgraded as always any firmware updates we risk data lost. Unless u having major issues leave firmware alone. Not broken don't fix it.

Wheather can update US version u may drop dlink an email. They will eventually reply.

hey guys...

i had a drive the was quite wonky.. till one day.. i can't read it anymore.

then i took it out.. mount it to my pc and then formatted it to NTFS. then i pop it back into the 323. then formatted it to the linux.. wah lah.. i can see it now, but i can't get it to be stable.. some files i want to copy in.. is not taking.. if the drive dead? or damaged? should i not use it for my nas anymore?

 

[ahbao]

better be safe unless you are fine with data loss, can throw away the hdd liao

if it can be used in your PC, maybe you can use it to download BT

1. FTP.
2. USE a PC, remote into the pc from outside and access it.

no, Vpn is not required.

3. set everyone can view content.
