Chapter 5 Tutorials 5.7.4 Creating a PC Compatible Volume You can use your eSATA hard disk as a separate storage volume. The following section shows you how to create a PC Compatible Volume. Use this storage method if you have an eSATA hard disk that will be connected to a Windows computer when it is not connected to the NSA. However, the computer's platform (for example, Windows XP SP2) should support the file system you selected for the eSATA hard disk. 1 Connect the eSATA hard disk to your NSA and go to the Storage > Volume screen. Click Create a SATA Volume. 2 In the Disk Configuration screen, you can select the storage method. • Type in the Volume Name for your PC Compatible volume. The volume name can be 1 to 31 characters (a-z, 0-9, " " [spaces], "_", and "."). • Choose PC Compatible Volume. • Select the File System you want to use (NTFS in this example). Make sure this file system is supported by the Windows platform you are using in your computer. Refer to Table 23 on page 165 for file systems supported by your NSA. Click Apply. This deletes all existing data in the eSATA hard disk. Make sure you have a backup of any existing data in the hard disk. Media Server User's Guide 79
