Managing Your ReadyNAS 2100

v1.1, June 2009

To enable iSCSI support, click Create iSCSI Target, and enter the desired name of the target and
the capacity you wish to reserve for this target device. Maximum capacity is slightly less than the
full free space on the ReadyNAS. If you wish to enable authentication for access, enable CHAP
authentication and specify the user name and password. The password needs to be at least 12
characters long.

from various operating systems.

Working with USB Volumes

USB storage devices are shared using the name of the device appended with the partition number.
You can change the base device name in Volumes > USB Storage, if you want.

The USB tab displays the USB disk and flash devices connected to the ReadyNAS 2100, and
offers various options for these devices. A flash device appears as USB_FLASH_1 and a disk
device appears as USB_HDD_1. If you have multiple devices, they appear appended by an
increasing device number; for example, USB_HDD_2. If the device contains multiple partitions,
the partitions are listed beneath the main device entry.

Partitions on the storage devices must be one of the following file system formats: FAT32, NTFS,
Ext2, or Ext3.
