Hi

Is there any possibility to add custom fan speeds?
I would really like to set a level on the fan that is lower than the present "low" setting.

I'm experiencing the fan noise level to be very high. Even when spinning on low speed. I need to keep the NAS in my TV bench and i can't get rid of the high noise.
Maybe my device is faulty or is the fan supposed to sound quite much?


Great wishlist so far. Keep up the good work!

Sry that I write under this cover, but this thread is the most used...

I'm experiencing problems with some P2P downloads: bigger files doesn't seem to work. Trying to download 20GB in one media file on a 20Mbit line, it should take max.3hours. But every time I check the status, the download is stack (current speed doesn't move) or the screen says "Connection error" (only one donwload in list). After this the application restarts the download, first comes the verification of the downloaded data (not so fast..) than it is trying to continue. And so on, and on, and on... 3 days now.

Hi guys!

I have a DNS-320L. Current NAS Firmware Version 1.00, Firmware Date 05/08/2012.
Is there any newer firmware available? Even a beta would be ok.

Still no date releasing an official firmware update ?

Thanks for the additional observations

Can  others weigh-in on this?

NAS Credentials on Windows 7 are not saved, Googled:

This worked perfect for me (on Windows 7). I just went to:
* ControlPanel -> User Accounts & Family Safety -> Cradential Manager
* Add a Window Cradential
I then entered the details, clicked OK and was able to browse the network drive without, without needing to disconnect it first.

First I have deleted the stored one, than added a new with IP address and user/login, save... restart. WORKS

Thanks for maintaining this list JavaLawyer, it's taken me a few months to find this resource for my DNS-320L, so I'm delighted I can finally both read and make a contribution to this.

Here are the things I'd like to see addressed

• The contents of deep nested folders aren't listed while browsing. I think in my case the folders of photos were nested approximately 10 deep. I was seeing this behaviour over the PS3.
• It's nearly impossible to add a P2P download via a smartphone - the whole page often refreshes in the time it takes to paste the link and hit the 'Add Torrent' button. (noticed on iPhone 4)
• Moving files from P2P folder to another location doesn't appear to always index correctly. Sometimes I have to move the file back out and back into the destination folder for the system to recognise that the new file is there (noticed on PS3)
• DLNA - Improved Samsung Smart TV support (I see this is already logged, for what it's worth I'd just like to stress that this has proven a massive limitation of the product for me too)

Nice work so far.
I would like to ask if it is possible to add movie sharing via iTunes server? 
Thanks
