FAQ
USB
1. I have plugged in Classic SL Network Drive to my USB port and
cannot see Classic SL Network Drive in My Computer.
Try plugging the Classic SL Network Drive into a different USB port on your
PC. Or try using a different USB cable.
With Windows ME/2000/XP and MAC, Classic SL Network Drive uses the
Operating System’s built-in USB drivers, therefore, no software is necessary.
If you are using Windows98SE, please check our website for the latest USB
drivers. www.freecom.com.
If using Windows98SE/ME, and MAC, make sure that Classic SL Network
Drive is formatted to the supported files system. Windows Me requires
FAT32. Mac has its own file system, but also supports FAT32. It is up to you
to choose the appropriate one.
2. My Classic SL Network Drive shows up as a Black dot when used with
USB.
When used with USB mode, the software is not needed, therefore you will
see a black dot (disconnected) in the system tray as that is an indicator for
NDAS (Ethernet) mode.
Aggregation & Mirroring
1. What is the maximum number of NetDisk that support aggregation?
Aggregation can currently be done using two (2) NetDisk units.
2. When used with Mirroring, and one NetDisk goes down what
happens?
The kind of mirroring done with NetDisk software is basic. You must format
before mirroring or aggregating NetDisk.
If one NetDisk goes down, data will still be on the other NetDisk and can be
accessed, but if you want to replace the down NetDisk, you must format
both NetDisks again to recreate mirror.
