The DNS-340L ShareCenter + 4-Bay Cloud Network Storage Enclosure is an easy-to-use solution for accessing, sharing, and backing up your important data by creating your own personal cloud. Multiple RAID options allow you to keep all of your data safely stored and protected at home, and still have it at your fingertips with this sleek, high-octane NAS device.

 

A plethora of different hard drive modes are available (Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 1+0), which allow users to choose the configuration best suited to their needs. Standard mode creates two separately accessible hard drives. JBOD combines both drives to create a single, easy to use volume. RAID 0 combines both drives in a “striped” configuration, which provides maximum performance. RAID 1 creates a copy of your data on both drives, providing maximum protection. RAID 5 combines space from three of your hard drives and uses the fourth drive as a parity drive. RAID 10 protects data against loss of non-adjacent disks and uses the disk striping technique to speed up operation when retrieving data from disk storage. The DNS-340L is hot swap enabled meaning you can easily replace a failed drive and your data will automatically be copied to the new drive, allowing the ShareCenter to return to its full level of protection and ensuring your files remain safe.

 

The ShareCenter™ + 4-Bay Cloud Network Storage Enclosure includes a web-enabled file server which allows you to download your documents, photos, and other multimedia files from wherever you are. Once configured, simply log into your ShareCenter using the friendly web user interface to view a list of available files. You can also connect to the DNS-340L with the mydlink Access - NAS app to access and play music, watch videos, and view photos directly on your mobile device. With the mydlink portal, you’ll never have to bother with configuring complicated network settings to enable remote access to your content.

 

The DNS-340L can accept 3.5” internal SATA hard drives up to 4TB, and installing drives is as simple as popping the top, attaching the hard drive holders, and then sliding them into place. Remove the top to access the drive bays, then just slide in your storage drives into place and you’re ready. USB ports on the front and back of the ShareCenter can be used to attach a multifunction USB printer, an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), or an external USB storage drive to use with the one-touch backup function. Combined with a D-Link Cloud Router, the DNS-340L can also take advantage of Zero Configuration Setup. Zero Configuration technology greatly simplifies the configuration of your DNS-340L. Simply choose the RAID type you need and Zero Configuration will do the rest for you.
