Below is a summary table of what can be done in each situation. Table 125 Overview of Protection Methods SITUATION ACTION Unexpected NSA behavior after configuration changes Need to transfer data from your computer to the NSA after volume(s) have been created Data infected by virus Back up the NSA configuration file before you make major configuration changes. Backup your data to a computer or other storage devices. Use anti-virus software on your computer to scan files before saving them onto the NSA. Although this may be slow so you may want to schedule it to occur while no one is using the NSA. Hard drive malfunction. NSA malfunction Network down Use a firewall with anti-virus capability on your network. Use RAID. Back up data to another NSA or external USB hard drive. Natural disaster such as a fire or earthquake occurs where your NSA is located The following sections describe these methods in more detail. See Section 8.6.3 on page 171 for more information on RAID. 19.3 Configuration File Backup and Restoration Use the Maintenance > Configuration menus to create a file of your NSA configurations such as passwords, shares and volumes created, network settings and so on. If you're going to do some major configuration changes, then it is advisable to create a configuration backup file. If things go wrong after you make the configuration changes, you can always go back to the previous configuration by restoring an earlier configuration file. Media Server User's Guide 341
