LaCie d2 Network 2 - Professional Storage Server, Gigabit Ethernet | USB 2.0
Essential Networking Solution
The LaCie d2 Network 2 offers professional, reliable, central storage for instantly storing, sharing, and backing up from any PC or Mac® on your network, and best of all, it's fully compatible with Windows®, Mac, and Linux operating systems. Manage your home or small office network easily with this full-featured file server, recommended for networks with up to 10 users. The d2 Network 2 is perfectly suited for quiet environments or for professional IT server rooms thanks to its 19" rackmount capability.
Simple, User-Friendly Administration
With the d2 Network 2's new widget-based dynamic web interface, administration is easy, convenient and secure. Thanks to DHCP and Apipa support, network configuration is fast and automatic. The product integrates easily with existing Windows domains using Active Directory and it allows user, groups, share and quota management. Access to administration pages and shares is easy using LaCie Network Assistant and, on top of that, it can provide its administrator notifications via email of events like backup, disk failure, high temperature, etc.
A Complete Backup Solution
Get extra security and increase data portability by backing up your LaCie d2 Network 2— on your own schedule— to an external hard drive through its USB and eSATA ports using the built-in copy system. The LaCie d2 Network 2 also comes with Genie® Backup Manager Pro™ for Windows and Intego® Backup Manager Pro™ for Mac to install on each PC/Mac for client backups to the NAS. This software lets you reliably and efficiently back up your documents, emails, settings, or other digital assets; it supports compressed, encrypted, or image backups and initiates a computer recovery program in case of general crash. Also, the LaCie d2 Network 2 is compatible with Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard, including Time Machine®, making it an ideal partner for your Mac.
iSCSI Target
You can set up an iSCSI share of your 5big Network 2 and mount it as a local share on your computer in the same way that external hard drives are mounted when connecting to your PC/Mac. An iSCSI connection will bring you performance and flexibility for professional applications. You can use the 5big Network 2 as final backup destination of any server integrating an iSCSI initiator.
USB Direct Connection
You can connect your d2 Network 2 directly to your computer through a USB cable to access a dedicated USBShare folder of up to 500GB like a normal external hard drive. This unique feature allows you to gain extra flexibility and mobility for customized usage. So you'll be able to format this USB Share in your preferred file system using your computer.
Eco Management
The LaCie d2 Network 2 helps you to reduce power consumption by switching to idle mode (where the disk spins off) after a determined inactivity time. Also, you can schedule a deep sleep on/off mode according your needs. Thanks to the Wake-on-LAN feature, the d2 Network 2 can be switched back to operating mode from the client side. In addition, it also integrates UPS support*** through its USB port to ensure proper shutdown in case of power failure. On top of that, its exclusive aluminum fanless heat sink design makes it your ecological partner— it's recyclable and ROHS-compliant.
Remote Management
With Automatic Port Forward, you can take advantage of UPnP-IGD/NAT-PMP compatible routers and easily access your d2 Network 2 remotely. With the Dynamic IP integration you can create your own Internet address for your NAS. Thanks to its advanced file browser based in Ajaxplorer you can also easily see, download and use your documents stored in your LaCie d2 Network 2.
