Introduction
The NSA210 lets you share files and back up data on your home
network. You can also play video, music, and show photo files stored on
the NSA210 using a media client such as the DMA-2500.
How It Works
Above is the NSA210 in a home network. Users back up and share data
on the NSA210. The DMA-2500 plays the NSA210’s media files on the
TV. A USB hard drive provides extra storage space and files are copied
directly from the USB memory stick to the NSA210.
Place the NSA210 behind a firewall and/or IDP (Intrusion Detection and
Prevention) device to protect it from attacks from the Internet.
See the User’s Guide on the included CD for details on configuring all of
the NSA210’s features.

Install Hard Drive
Once you intall a hard drive on the NSA210 and create a volume, all
existing data on the disk will be erased.
The NSA210 must be turned off before you remove or install
hard drive.
Creating a volume formats the hard drive. All data will be lost.
Back up any files on the disk to another location before you
install the disk in the NSA210.
1. Make sure the power and Ethernet cords are disconnected from the
NSA210.
2. Place the NSA210 on a flat surface with the
bottom panel facing up. This exposes the bottom
panel where the thumbscrew is located. Loosen
the thumbscrew using a flat head screwdriver or
a coin.
3. Bring the NSA210 to an upright position and take
off the front lid to open the hard disk tray as
shown in the following:

6
4. Slide in the hard disk into the tray until the hard disk
is fitted snugly inside the NSA210.
5. Attach the front panel to cover the hard disk tray.
Place the NSA210 on a flat surface with the bottom
panel facing up and tighten the screw.
If you want to use two hard drives and configure them as RAID volumes,
you should have: 1) a SATA hard disk installed inside the NSA210; and
2) an eSATA hard disk with its cable. It is also recommended to use the
same disk size and model for best performance. Refer to the User’s
Guide for the steps to create volumes on your NSA210.
Connect the NSA210
1. Use the included Ethernet cable to connect the
LAN port on the rear of the NSA210 to a computer,
switch, or router on your network.
2. Connect one end of the power cord to the POWER
socket on the rear of the NSA210 and the other
end to the external power supply. Connect the
external power supply to a power outlet.
Use ONLY the included power adapter.

Troubleshooting
Try the following if you cannot get to the NSA210 login screen.
• Make sure the NSA210 is turned on.
• Check the NSA210’s cable connections. Make sure the NSA210’s
LAN LED (located on the LAN port) is on or flashing.
• Make sure you have initialized your NSA210 using the NAS Starter
Utility.
• If you were trying to login directly by typing the server name (default
nsa210) into your web browsers address field, make sure you have
installed the NAS Starter Utility and that you have typed the server
name correctly. If it still doesn’t work, try running the NAS Starter
Utility steps again.
• Make sure your computer’s IP address is in the same subnet as the
NSA210’s IP address. You can use the NAS Starter Utility to find
the NSA210’s IP address. See the User’s Guide appendix on
setting up your computer’s IP address for how to change your
computer’s IP address. Skip this if you know that there are routers
between your computer and the NSA210 (like if you are connecting
through the Internet).
• Ping the NSA210 from your computer. Make sure your computer’s
Ethernet adapter is installed and functioning properly. In a
(Windows) computer, click Start, (All) Programs, Accessories
and then Command Prompt. In the Command Prompt window,
type “ping” followed by the NSA210’s IP address and press
[ENTER]. Use the NAS Starter Utility to find the NSA210’s IP
address if you don’t know it.
• Use Internet Explorer 6.0, Mozilla Firefox 1.07, Netscape Navigator
7.0, or later versions of these with JavaScript enabled.

Einführung
Mit dem NSA können Sie in Ihrem Heimnetzwerk von verschiedenen
Geräten aus gemeinsam auf Dateien zugreifen und Daten sichern. Sie
können mit einem Medien-Client wie dem DMA-2500 auch Video-,
Musik- und Fotodateien abspielen, die auf dem NSA gespeichert sind.
So funktioniert es
Die obige Abbildung zeigt den NSA in einem Heimnetzwerk. Benutzer
sichern Daten auf dem NSA und haben gemeinsamen Zugriff darauf.
Der DMA-2500 spielt die Mediendateien des NSA auf dem Fernsehgerät
ab. Eine USB-Festplatte bietet zusätzlichen Speicherplatz, und Dateien
werden direkt von jedem PC im Netzwerk oder auch vom USB auf das
NSA geladen.
Schließen Sie das NAS möglichst hinter ihrem Router mit Firewall an.
Eine Beschreibung zum Konfigurieren aller Funktionen des NSA finden
Sie im Benutzerhandbuch, das auf der CD enthalten ist.
