FAQ

  • Is it easy to replace the hard drives?
    The LinkStation Duo offers the easiest hard drive addition and replacement on the market. Simply pull the front cover off with your fingers and slide a compatible 3.5” SATA hard drive into or out of the bay. No tools or hard drive trays are required.
  • Can I use the Time Machine function to back up multiple Mac computers??
    Yes. The LinkStation Duo has an integrated Time Machine server allowing multiple Mac computers to backup to the Time Machine server.
  • What devices can I connect to the LinkStation Duo's USB ports?
    ?The USB port supports three types of devices:
    1) USB storage devices - a USB storage device can be added to store data backups of the LinkStation Duo or to be used as an additional data share.
    2) USB Printers - a USB printer can be added and shared through the LinkStation Duo, providing the entire home or office access to a printer over the network. LinkStation Duo only supports one-way communication and provides printing but not advanced scanning and faxing functionality.
    3) UPS Devices - A support UPS or battery backup device can be added and connected via the USB port. When using the USB port, the UPS device can signal when it is running low on battery and perform a safe shutdown, and it will also turn the LinkStation Duo back on when power has been restored.
  • How many users does the LinkStation Duo support??
    The LinkStation Duo does not have a specific user limit and can conceivably support unlimited users. However, depending on the application and use case, the device may provide limited user support. Although the LinkStation Duo can support hundreds of users simultaneously in simple environments (sharing word documents, etc.), it is designed for homes and small offices with up to 50 basic users or so.
  • What capacity will the device have in different RAID modes??
    The dual-drive NAS products support RAID0 and RAID1. In RAID0, both hard drives are combined to provide maximum storage equivalent to the stated capacity of the device. However, in RAID0 there is no data redundancy. RAID1 provides data redundancy by mirroring data from one hard drive to the other and therefore provides half of the stated capacity (the other half is used for data redundancy).  Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID for more information on how RAID arrays work.
  • How does the BitTorrent download feature work?
    ?The BitTorrent feature is accessed through a web browser where a user can upload a .torrent tracker file or simply provide a URL to a tracker. The NAS then downloads the BitTorrent file(s) to the pre-determined download directory.
