CHAPTER 1

Get to Know Your NAS

1.1 Overview

This User’s Guide covers the following models: NAS326, NAS520, NAS540, and NAS542.

Use the NAS as your own personal cloud. Here are some key features:

•Start using Zyxel NAS instantly with FindMe — Use Zyxel FindMe to discover your NAS on your home

network and get in control in under 15 seconds. Then do an easy installation with no need to install a

NAS utility.

•Access and share files from your NAS wherever you are — Using the Zyxel Drive mobile app makes it

easy.

•Create a shared cloud space for people without a NAS — Provide your cloud space for your friends or

family members when you share a folder from the NAS with the Zyxel Drive mobile app. Your friends

and family members don’t need to purchase an additional NAS — just install the Zyxel Drive mobile

app on their mobile devices.

•Protect your data from drive failure — The NAS’s RAID 1 capability clones contents from one drive to

another. If a drive is damaged or corrupted, you still have another drive to restore from or use.

•Get up and running quickly with the easy-to-us e interface — The Zyxel NSM (NAS Station Management)

5.2 intelligent desktop provides a rich feature set of tools with an easy-to-understand GUI design to

help you get things done quickly. The multitasking capability through a multi-window interface

enables you to quickly get applications up and running.

•Check your NAS while you’re away — Even if you have several Zyxel NAS devices, visit the

myZyxelcloud Web portal from anywhere to see their health status at a glance.

•Stream multimedia contents to your big screen TV — Bring your favorite multimedia files on the NAS to

the big screen. Zyxel zCloud app lets you play your favorite videos, music, or photos on your big

screen with TV streaming devices such as Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Roku 3, and Amazon Fire TV;

or directly on smart TVs like those from Samsung and LG.

Figure 1 Example of the NAS in a Home Network

Above is the NAS in a home network. Users back up and share data on the NAS. The media player (A)

plays the NAS’s media files on the TV. A USB hard drive (B) provides extra storage space and files are

copied directly from the USB storage device to the NAS.

Place the NAS behind a firewall and/or IDP (Intrusion Detection and Prevention) device to protect it

from attacks from the Internet.

Refer to the Quick Start Guide for hardware connections and how to install and remove hard drives from

the disk trays.

Note: Turn off and disconnect the NAS before you install or remove the internal hard disk or

disks.

Figure 2 Using the Power Button to Turn Off the NAS

• To have the NAS go through its normal software shutdown process and turn itself off, press the power

button until you hear one beep (after about three seconds), then release it.

• To perform a hardware shutdown and have the NAS immediately turn itself off without going through

the normal shutdown process, press the power button until you hear a second beep (after about five

seconds), then release it.

1.6 COPY/SYNC Button

Use the COPY/SYNC button on the front panel to copy or synchronize files between a connected USB or

SD device and the NAS. See Section 16.4 on page 286 for more details on how to configure the copy/

sync settings.

1.7 RESET Button

17

• Press the RESET button until you hear two beeps. After the second beep, continue pressing the button

for five more seconds, then release it. You will hear three quick beeps after you release the button.

This resets the NAS to the factory default configuration. All settings you have configured on the NAS,

including IP address, password, user accounts, groups, and so on will be reset to the factory defaults.

The reset process does NOT affect the volume settings, nor data stored on the NAS.

You should periodically back up your configuration file to your computer (see Section 11.5 on page 185

for details about managing the NAS’s configuration file). You could then restore your configuration in

the event that you or someone else reset the NAS to the factory defaults.

Note: Keep the NAS in a secure location in order to prevent unauthorized reset of the device.

You may need to close and re-open the NAS Starter Utility to discover the NAS. This is because the NAS

automatically re-acquires IP address information, so its IP address may change. If no IP address

information is assigned, the NAS uses Auto-IP to assign itself an IP address and subnet mask. For example,

you could connect the NAS directly to your computer. If the computer is also set to get an IP address

automatically, the computer and the NAS will choose addresses for themselves and be able to

communicate.

A green circle with a check mark indicates healthy.

An orange circle with an exclamation mark indicates attention. This appears when a

volume or disk group is degraded. Click Repair to repair it.

An red circle with an exclamation mark indicates danger. This appears when a

volume or disk group is crashed. You cannot recover the volume.

Volume on RAID This section shows the current storage usage for each volume built directly on top of a

RAID. These volumes have higher access performance than volumes on a disk group

but are less flexible in regards to size.

Details include the currently used percentage of the volume.

Shared Folder (Normal) — green on the circle represents the volume’s percentage of

used capacity in a healthy state.

LUN (Normal) — blue on the circle represents the iSCSI LUN’s percentage of used

capacity.

Degraded — orange on the circle represents the volume’s percentage of used

capacity in a degraded state. Degraded means one or more disks has failed but you

can still replace a faulty disk to recover the volume.

Crashed/Full — a red exclamation point represents the volume is in a down state.

Down means you cannot recover the volume. Full means the volume has run out of

space.

Available — gray on the circle represents the volume’s percentage of unused

capacity.

This section also displays the volume’s used capacity, and total capacity available.

Volume on Disk Group This section shows the current storage usage for each volume built on top of a disk

group. You can expand a volume’s size after creation if the disk group has

unallocated space. You can also expand a disk group by adding hard disks.

RAID Types

The following table describes RAID types.

Note: RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, and the hot spare option apply to 4-bay NAS devices.

Repair Volumes or Disk Groups

If a hard disk in a RAID 1 with a hot spare or a RAID 5 with a hot spare fails, the NAS automatically uses

the hot spare to re-build the volume or disk group. Later you can replace the failed hard disk and add

the new disk as a hot spare.

A hard disk failure in a RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, or RAID 10 degrades the volume or disk group. Replace

the failed disk and use the Internal Storage screen’s Repair link to repair the volume.

This field shows the total number of spin start retry attempts. This is the number of attempts to spin

up to fully operational speed the hard drive has made when the first attempt did not succeed. An

increase in this value is an indicator of hard disk mechanical subsystem problems.

Reallocated_S

ector_Ct

This field shows the total number of reallocated sectors on the hard drive. When the hard drive

detects a read/write/verification error, it marks the sector as “reallocated” and transfers the data

to a specially reserved (spare) area. The process is also known as remapping with “reallocated”

sectors known as remaps. The more sectors the hard disk has to reallocate, the slower read and

write speeds become.

Figure 61 S.M.A.R.T Info

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 35 S.M.A.R.T Info

LABEL DESCRIPTION

ID This is the identification number used to tag a hard disk attribute.

This is standard across all S.M.A.R.T-enabled storage devices. However it depends on the

storage vendor which attributes it will allow S.M.A.R.T to diagnose.

Attribute This refers to an attribute of the hard disk that S.M.A.R.T can assess. Attributes describe the hard

disk’s physical state, performance, wear-and-tear, and so on.

Value This is a value that corresponds to the Raw Data. Compare this with the Threshold.

S.M.A.R.T compresses the raw value(s) into a digit from 1 to 253, where 1 indicates the worst

scenario while 253 indicates the best scenario.

The values 100 or 200 usually represent the mean or normal value.

Worst This is the lowest value attained by the hard disk since S.M.A.R.T started its assessment of the

hard disk.

Threshold This is the attribute’s threshold value. If the attribute’s current normalized value is less than or

equal to the threshold, the attribute has failed. An attribute value close to or below the

threshold indicates the hard drive is no longer reliable.

Type This shows S.M.A.R.T’s assessment of the hard disk.

Old_age indicates end-of-product life from old-age (normal wearing out) if the attribute value

is less than or equal to the threshold.

Pre-fail indicate imminent hard drive failure if the attribute value is less than or equal to the

threshold.

Note that just because an attribute is of the Pre-fail type does not mean your hard drive is

ready to fail. It only means this if the current normalized value of the attribute is less than or

equal to the threshold.

5.3.3.3 S.M.A.R.T Attributes

The following table describes some common S.M.A.R.T. attributes. If a higher or lower raw attribute value

is better, it is indicated in the BETTER column. Since S.M.A.R.T. attributes and their definitions vary by

manufacturer, refer to the hard drive manufacturer for details about the attributes your hard drive

supports.

Updated This indicates when the hard drive updates the value for this attribute.

•Always means the hard drive updates this attribute during normal operation and during

offline activities.

•Offline means the hard drive only updates this attribute when no one is accessing the hard

drive.

When Failed This column indicates when (if ever) the attribute failed. An attribute has failed if the normalized

value is less than or equal to the threshold.

•—: This displays if the attribute is not failing now and has never failed in the past.

•FAILING_NOW: This displays if the attribute’s current normalized value is less than or equal to

the threshold.

•In_the_past: This displays if the attribute’s current normalized value is greater than the

threshold but the worst recorded value is less than or equal to the threshold.

Raw Data This is the attribute’s unprocessed raw data. These values show exact amounts of time or

numbers of attempts or errors. The meaning to the raw values is specific to the hard drive

manufacturer. Table 42 on page 156 has some information about whether a higher or lower

individual raw S.M.A.R.T. attribute value is better.

ID ATTRIBUTE

NAME BETTER DESCRIPTION

01 Read Error Rate Low Shows the rate of hardware read errors. If this is not zero, there is a problem

with the disk surface or the read/write heads.

02 Throughput

Performance

High This is the hard drive’s general (overall) throughput performance. A

decreasing value indicates a problem.

03 Spin-Up Time Low This is the average number of milliseconds the hard drive took for spindle spin

up (from zero RPM to fully operational).

04 Start/Stop Count The total number of spindle start and stop cycles.

05 Reallocated

Sectors Count

Low Total number of reallocated sectors on the hard drive. When the hard drive

detects a read/write/verification error, it marks the sector as “reallocated”

and transfers the data to a specially reserved (spare) area. The process is

also known as remapping with “reallocated” sectors known as remaps. The

more sectors the hard drive has to reallocate, the slower read and write

speeds become.

06 Read Channel

Margin

This is the margin of a channel when it reads data.

07 Seek Error Rate Low This is the rate of the magnetic heads’ seek errors. A failure in the mechanical

positioning system, such as servo damage or a thermal widening of the disk,

results in seek errors. An increasing number of seek errors indicate the

condition of the disk surface and the mechanical subsystem are worsening.

08 Seek Time

Performance

High This is an average performance indicator for the seek operations of the

magnetic heads. Mechanical subsystem problems cause this value to

decrease.

09 Power-On Hours

(POH)

Low This is how many hours the hard drive has been in a power-on state. The raw

value lists the total number of hours (or minutes, or seconds depending on

the manufacturer).

10 Spin Retry Count Low This is the total number of spin start retry attempts. This is the number of

attempts to spin up to fully operational speed the hard drive has made when

the first attempt did not succeed. An increase in this value is an indicator of

hard disk mechanical subsystem problems.

11 Recalibration

Retries

High This is the number of times recalibration was requested when the first attempt

did not succeed. A decrease in this value is an indicator of hard disk

mechanical subsystem problems.
