Scan

Press the Scan button if you would like to scan your disk for errors. This operation can

take a very long time to complete.

Unmount

Press the Unmount button if you would like to unmount the auxiliary storage device. This

button is disabled for the primary hard disk.

Detail

Press the Detail button in order to view a detailed status report for your drive.

Also, in case you have made a recent change to a storage device, you can press the

Refresh button at the bottom of the table to refresh the table with the most current status.

Finally, the ﬁeld at the bottom of the Disk Utility screen allows you to set an automatic

spin-down time for the hard drive. By spinning down the drive when not in use, you can

conserve power, extend the life of the drive, and lower the standby operating temperature

(which in turn prevents the cooling fan from running needlessly). The default setting is 30

minutes. Press Save to save your change.

Firmware Upgrade

If a more recent version of the NAS drive’s internal ﬁrmware is available, you will

want to download and install it. The most recent ﬁrmware version may have improved

performance or added features that could give you beneﬁts not present in your current

version.
