D-Link DNS-343 4-Bay Network Attached Storage Enclosure
The D-Link ShareCenter 4-Bay Network Storage Enclosure (DNS-343) connects to your network instead of to a computer so everyone on your network can back up content to one central location. Plus, it lets you share your stored content across your network and over the Internet so family members, friends and employees can access it no matter where they are.
Size: Diskless Brand: D-Link Model: DNS-343 Platform: Windows Format: CD Number of items: 1 Dimensions: 11.00" h x 11.00" w x 12.50" l, 10.20 pounds Perfect way to store, share and safeguard documents, music, videos and photos Easily insert up to four 3.5" SATA hard drives without using tools Protect important files with RAID 1 or RAID 5 data redundancy Access stored files over the Internet USB port can act as a print server port
The D-Link ShareCenter 4-Bay Network Storage Enclosure (DNS-343) connects to your network instead of to a computer so everyone on your network can back up content to one central location. Plus, it lets you share your stored content across your network and over the Internet so family members, friends and employees can access it no matter where they are. This version of the DNS-343 does not come with a hard disk drive, enabling you to add your own hard drives (see specifications below). Key Features Supports four different hard drive modes (Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, and RAID 1) Up to 4 TB of storage from four SATA hard drives Capable of streaming audio and video to compatible UPnP-enabled devices Gigabit Ethernet port for ultra-fast wired connectivity With Sharecenter You Can Back It Up Keeping all of your important files on your computer without backing them up is like owning a house and not insuring it. It's important to back up your files so if the unexpected happens, you still have a backup in place. The ShareCenter 4-Bay Network Storage Enclosure can house up to four 3.5-inch SATA hard drives of any capacity1, giving you plenty of space to store your music, photos, videos, documents and other important stuff. When used with four hard drives, the 4-Bay ShareCenter allows you to back up files in full or incremental backups and comes with five different hard drive modes so you can best configure it to your needs. Standard mode creates two separately accessible hard drives JBOD (Just a Bunch of Drives) combines both hard drives in linear fashion for maximum space efficiency RAID 0 provides faster speeds by combining both drives in a striped configuration, which means data is distributed across both drives in the enclosure. RAID 12 causes two drives to mirror each other, providing maximum protection. If there are four drives present, you can set up two separate RAID 1 partitions. If one drive fails, the unaffected drive in the partition will continue to operate normally. Once you replace the failed drive, RAID 1 mirroring will resume and both drives will mirror each other again. Advanced RAID 5 offers the highest performance with the most reliable data recovery in the case of a drive failure. RAID 5 technology uses a clever algorithm to distribute your data over four SATA hard disk drives and, in the case of a hard drive failure, the DNS-343 will continue to function with your data intact. B.Y.O.D. (Bring Your Own Drives) One of the best things about this ShareCenter device is that it comes without built-in hard drives. That means added flexibility and reduced strain on your wallet. Rather than being handed any old hard drive, you're free to hand pick the one that is the best fit for you. Choose the size. Choose the brand. Search for the best deal. Buy one. Buy two. Buy four! The sky is the limit. Bundled Software With bundled software, you never have to worry about your hard drive crashing. Not only does it let you restore individual files and documents in case they get lost, it lets you take snapshots of your entire hard drive so you can restore your computer to the way it was when the snapshot was taken. Sharing is Caring Because this enclosure connects to your network instead of directly to a computer, it allows you to share all of your saved content over your network. Music, photos, videos ... think of the possibilities! And no need to worry about the safety of your stuff. You can give rights to specific users or groups and assign them to folders with either read or read/write permissions. This is perfect for an office environment with employee-specific data or for the home where you can ensure your children will only have access to age appropriate material. D-Link Green While this may look like your average storage enclosure, it's not. This is a D-Link Green storage enclosure, which means it's as good for your wallet as it is for the environment. This product: Features a fan that only comes on when hard drives need cooling Allows hard drives to enter sleep mode when not in use to conserve electricity and prolong the life of the hard disk Complies with the European Union's RoHS directive that restricts the use of certain hazardous materials Uses recyclable packaging to help reduce waste that goes into the environment The D-Link Easy Utility The D-Link Easy Utility allows you to easily locate the 4-Bay ShareCenter from anywhere on the network. Once it is located, you can use the utility to map the hard drive so it will appear in My Computer on your PC. Easy Peasy Not quite the handyman? That's OK. You can insert hard drives without using any tools or attaching any cables. Additionally, you can monitor what's going on with the 4-Bay ShareCenter via the OLED display on the front, which shows important information including IP address, hard drive statistics, temperature, RAID status, and server status (FTP and UPnP) at a glance. The Power of Gigabit This ShareCenter device comes with a 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet port, giving you blazing fast speeds so you can back up and access your stuff without the wait. USB Featuring a USB port that can act as a print server port, this storage enclosure allows a USB printer to be added to your network without the need for a dedicated computer. The USB port can also support a Universal Power Supply (UPS) monitor that supports "smart" signaling over a USB connection. If a power outage were to occur, the compatible UPS monitor would allow the UPS unit to safely shut down the DNS-343. Be Cool There's no overheating in this enclosure's future. It comes with a quiet built-in fan to keep things nice and cool. Find the Best ShareCenter for You All ShareCenter devices enable everyone on your network back up and share documents, music, photos, videos and more across a network and over the Internet. Depending on your needs, you can choose between two- and four-bay models as well as consider extra features such as a USB print server, built-in BitTorrent client, or RAID 5 hard drive technology. Models: DNS-321, 2-Bay DNS-323, 2-Bay DNS-343, 4-Bay D-Link's most affordable ShareCenter solution, it can store up to two SATA hard drives of any capacity and it lets everyone on your network back up and share documents, music, photos, videos and more across a network and over the Internet. Learn more. Featuring a built-in BitTorrent client that allows you to download files without turning on a computer, it also has a USB print server port so you can share a single USB printer with all of the computers on your network.

Hard drive bays 2 bays 2 bays 4 bays FTP server USB port Gigabit Ethernet BitTorrent OLED D-Link Green Backup Software UPnP Media Server RAID 0 RAID 1 RAID 5 Remote Backup (RSYNC) Share ShareCenter Connects to Your Home Network One of the biggest misconceptions about ShareCenter devices is that they are simply external hard drives. Sure, they protect your stuff in case your hard drive crashes. And yeah, they allow you to back up your digital content so you can save space on your computer. But unlike external hard drives, ShareCenter devices connect to your home network instead of to a single computer, which means they can go far above and beyond the limits of an average external hard drive. Share Files Over Your Home Network Because ShareCenter devices connect to your home network, they are able to back up and store content from all of the computers on your network instead of just one. That means while you're backing up work documents from your laptop, the rest of the family can back up the digital photos and music from their computers. Plus, because all of that digital content is being stored in one central location, it's easy for everyone on the network to share it between computers. And no need to worry, ShareCenter makes it easy to control who has access to what, so privacy isn't an issue. Access Your Content from Anywhere ShareCenter devices feature built-in FTP servers, which enable you to access your saved content remotely over the Internet. Once you set up an FTP server, you can access all of your music, videos, photos and documents from virtually anywhere. That's right. Thanks to ShareCenter no matter how far you travel, you never have to be more than a few clicks away from all of your saved files. Stream ShareCenter devices work with avariety of UPnP A/V compatiblemedia players to stream media. Stream Media to Your Computers and TVs You're probably planning to store a lot of great stuff on your ShareCenter. Photos from last week's party, the video you shot of your best friend's wedding, your entire music collection and tons more. Wouldn't it be nice to enjoy it all whenever and wherever you want? With ShareCenter, you can. ShareCenter makes it simple to wirelessly stream digital media like photos, music and videos to any of your computers and your entertainment system. That means you can watch any saved media on your computer, or enjoy it with friends and family on your entertainment system. Anywhere, anytime. Compatible Media Players ShareCenter storage enclosures work with a variety of UPnP A/V compatible network media players to stream videos, photos and music to your entertainment center. Compatible media players include: Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 The Boxee Box by D-Link Protect Hard Drives Crash If you're like most people, a lot of your digital life is stored on your computer. Your digital photos, home videos, music, work documents and more. But guess what. Hard drives crash, so isn't it time you backed yours up? And not just manually every so often with an external hard drive. We mean really back it up. Enter ShareCenter ShareCenter can be programmed to back up your digital content on a schedule or in real time so you can set it and forget it. Plus, ShareCenter can house more than one hard drive and can be configured to operate in the hard drive mode of your choice. It's truly a custom solution. Feature Rich Backup Software With ShareCenter's feature rich bundled software, you never have to worry about your hard drive crashing. Not only does it let you restore individual files and documents in case they get lost, it lets you take snapshots of your entire hard drive so you can restore your computer to exactly the way it was when the snapshot was taken. ShareCenter devices allow you to easily create backup schedules and storage quotas for specific users and groups. Manage Simplified Management Io ShareCenter solutions can do a whole lot. They let you back up your content, share it with friends and family, access everything remotely from the Internet and stream content to your TV. Thankfully, they're also incredibly easy to manage. With included feature-rich backup software, Windows users can easily create schedules and rules including real-time, full or incremental backups and can set storage quotas for specific users and groups. All without breaking a sweat. Network Access ShareCenter storage enclosures support up to 64 unique users and allow you to add them to a group or individually, making it simple to manage who has access to what. Plus, you can easily give rights to specific users or groups and assign them to folders with either read or read/write permissions. This is perfect for the home where you can ensure your children will only have access to age appropriate material or for an office environment with employee-specific data. Storage Quotas Hate it when people fill up your hard drive with their photos and music? Want to save some space for your own stuff? Good news: ShareCenter supports storage quotas for both groups and individual users. That means you can easily limit the amount of storage users are allocated and change those quotas as necessary. With ShareCenter, you've got the power. Hard Drive 101 3.5-inch SATA Hard Drives 3.5-inch SATA (Serial ATA) hard drives can be found easily right here on Amazon.com! As long as the hard drives you purchase are 3.5-inch SATA drives, they will work with your ShareCenter Device. The Right Capacity for You Hard drives come in a variety of storage capacities, generally ranging from 250 GB all the way up to 1 TB. Think of everything you want to store and back up on your ShareCenter device, including music, videos, photos and documents to decide on the best size for you: 250 GB Hard Drive 500 GB Hard Drive 1 TB Hard Drive 80,000 digital photos 4,150 hours of digital music 62 two-hour DVD-quality movies 160,000 digital photos 8,300 hours of digital music 125 two-hour DVD-quality movies 320,000 digital photos 16,600 hours of digital music 250 two-hour DVD-quality movies The Right Number of Drives for You You want to use your ShareCenter device for extra space to store your digital content and to share that content with all of the computers on your network. You want to store and share content over your network, but you also want to take advantage of RAID 1 technology to ensure that if one of the drives crashes, your content is still safe. You want to store and share content over your network with the 4-Bay ShareCenter device (DNS-343) and want to use RAID 5 technology because it offers the highest performance and the most reliable data recovery in the case of hard drive failure. Product Features Four 3.5-inch SATA hard drive bays Diskless (Add Your Own Hard Drives) Tool-less hard drive installation Five hard drive configurations--Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 5 High-speed Gigabit Ethernet connectivity UPnP AV server for streaming music, photos, and video to compatible media players Built-in FTP server for file access over the Internet Schedule downloads from Web or FTP sites Full or incremental backups Real-time backups with the included software Assign users/groups to folders with read or read/write permissions Establish storage quotas for users and groups Automatic e-mail notifications of device status Configurable via a Web browser Power management to conserve energy and help extend hard drive life 24/7 Basic Installation Support 1-Year Limited Warranty What's in the Box 4-bay network storage enclosure (DNS-343, diskless), power adapter, Ethernet cable, installation guide, CD-ROM with software and product documentation Hard Drive(s) not included. An internal SATA drive is required to store or share your files; drive must be formatted before use. RAID 1 mirroring requires the use of two (2) internal SATA drives. To avoid data incompatibility in RAID 1 and RAID 5 operation, use SATA drives from the same manufacturer. Formatted drive capacity for RAID 1 and RAID 5 operation is dependant on the drive capacity of the lowest-sized drive. May not work with older generation SATA drives. D-Link cannot guarantee full compatibility or proper playback with all codecs. Playback compatibility depends on the codec support of the UPnP AV media player. Unless additional precautions are taken, use of an FTP Server to access files over the Internet does not provide for secure or encrypted transmissions. It is recommended that the end-user utilize a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to establish a secure FTP session. * Examples of the number of photos, songs, videos and any other files that can be stored on a hard drive are provided for illustrative purposes only. Your results will vary based on file size and format, settings, features, software and other factors.

I bought a DNS-323 one year ago and it has been on ever since, serving up files reliably to my PC/Mac home network, downloading torrents, and streaming videos to my PS3/XBOX 360 (after installing Twonky Media Server). Based on my mostly positive experience with D-link products and price-to-features ratio, I decided to stick with the brand. I had wasted money on a Galaxy Metal Gear NAS, and read mostly lukewarm reviews for Netgear, Iomega, Linksys, and other makers. Other NAS devices like the DLNA-enabled Buffalo Technology LinkStation Live were attractive, but their price point or storage capacity was not. I need a large number of bays to create a centralized media server. When I outgrew the DNS-323, I bought a DNS321 2-bay when I really should have applied that $130 toward this 4-bay product instead. I wanted to consolidate the half dozen 1 TB external drives I had sitting around and network them so I didn't have to keep plugging and unplugging USB cables when I wanted to retrieve files. My home network is heterogeneous and I also needed the ability to write large files (4 GB+) to the drives. FAT32 is the only mutually writable format across XP and Mac, but it has a 4 GB filesize limit, making it impractical for my movie storage needs. The D-Link uses a Linux file system (ext2 or ext3, your choice), so filesize concerns are now gone. I've had this product for a week, and so far so good. The device can be configured from any web browser, so you don't need the CD (which is a Windows-only configuration app). I have 1 TB Hitachi and WD drives inside. Build quality is solid (made of thick aluminum). It's a brick of a device and looks quite durable. For the price, I am not expecting world class security and many bells and whistles. I just need it for storing my personal files and media on my home network, and stream them, and for that, it works to my satisfaction. The iTunes server works very nicely. For file transfers, I FTP to it and do all my copying that way. For some reason, the Mac is a lot faster (20MB/sec) than copying from XP (10MB/sec). Vista is the worse, and I usually get 5MB/sec. It would've been really great for D-link to include BitTorrent support for this, like the DNS-323. Maybe in a future firmware update. All in all, I'm quite happy with this product. I don't place heavy expectations on it and don't demand $1,500 server performance from a $370 device. It was the cheapest 4-bay NAS I could find for the features I wanted and gives great overall performance for the price. You can install telnet on it (look for Fonz's funplug) and open the device up to more hacking if you are so inclined. Will update this review as I use the device more. 19 of 21 people found the following review helpful. Excellent NAS at a Great Price By James Thomas There weren't a lot of positive reviews out there but I took a chance and bought this NAS and I am very happy I didn't listen to the bad reviews listed here and another site. This was the cheapest 4 drive NAS I could find and it is from a reputable company and it works great. Since I bought it I see that it has come down in price which makes it even better of a deal. Now that I know how well it performs this is a no brainer when compared to all the higher priced 4 Bay NAS available (cough...Netgear). The NAS itself is very well built...solid construction and not flimsy plastic like some of the others I have read about. Installing the drives in the NAS is very sturdy. You do not need to install rails like some other companies and don't have to worry about anything snapping. Drive bays are all numbered and has the newest firmware now has automatic power throttling fans (when I first turned on the unit the fans didn't start up and I thought the unit was defective and then 1 minute later they

I must say, this has to be one of the most sophisticated pieces of electronic equipment that I've ever owned. I don't even know where to begin. Did I mention this thing is amazing? I was running a Bose Lifestyle 48 prior to this, but when I finally decided to make the most of HDMI connections, I shelved the Bose and stepped up to the ONKYO. What a breath of fresh air! There are so many features of the TX-NR906 that I like. Starting with the remote control--I'm sure it's common practice nowadays for receiver remotes to be fairly smart, but this guy is really bright. I've managed to teach it all the commands from my three main remote controls (TV, BD & CD Players), more or less, just by pointing the controllers at each other and clicking. I'm referring to commands that aren't usually part of a universal controller's arsenal. The large number of connection choices are really coming in handy, as well. I'm maxing out the HDMI inputs and have one of the two outputs connected to my TV. There's a ton of digital audio options as well. The front panel offers a number of connection choices, including a USB port for playing MP3s. Another aspect of this receiver that I really like is the fact that this system not only sounds phenomenal when playing movies, but sounds equally as incredible playing CDs or listening to music from my PC. With previous systems it always seemed like one was better than the other, but with the TX-NR906, I really feels like I'm getting audiophile quality sound from all components. Oh yeah, did I mention? HD FM radio sounds phenomenal! I don't have XM or Sirius yet, but that's on the short list of near term upgrades. There's an antennae connection for both. This receiver is the hub of my home theater. Putting things in perspective, my setup includes a Samsung LN46A750 46-Inch 1080p DLNA LCD HDTV with RED Touch of Color, Panasonic DMP-BD30K 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player, a Sony 5-Disc Carousel CD Player, Dell XPS Pentium D 3.0 GHz/3.0 GB RAM/VisionTek Radeon HD4850 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express Graphics Card, Playstation 3 80GB, Motorola digital cable box/DVR , and Aperion Audio's Intimus 5T Hybrid HD speaker system. All this, combined with the TX-NR906, really sounds and looks incredible. I'm utilizing HDMI for video on all components. I'm also supplementing the digital cable box's audio with a coaxial cable. Similarly, I'm augmenting the BD Player's audio by connecting audio cables via the multichannel jacks. I bought the TX-NR906 in October 2008 and so far, I haven't found anything I dislike. The only minor thing I will point out is with the remote control. When you are teaching it commands from your other remotes, you might have to try it a couple of times. At first, I thought that some of the commands weren't going to be able to be taught, but I stuck with it and eventually was able to teach it all commands. No big deal, just don't give up if it doesn't work right away. Whether you're watching HD TV, listening to your favorite music, watching the latest release on Blu-Ray, or playing the hottest shooter on your PC or PS3--if you have the money, this receiver is the perfect addition to any home theater. 38 of 45 people found the following review helpful. Intense! Awesome! Feature Packed Hub of Power! By Stuart Floyd This monster at some 55lbs is the center of my entertainment. I have a 52 120Hz Samsung HDTV, Xbox, Playstation 3, Nintendo Wii, Onkyo DVD player, HP Desktop all connected via HDMI ports being Onkyo at present is the only one to offer so many HDMI connections on one unit. I am using 7.1 channel speakers which combined with this system put out such incredible clear sound and power driven whether the TV, the gaming systems, radio, DVD, windows Media Center, Apple itunes or Netflix via the xbox 360. Everything runs like a charm through this unit and all on one remote. However, that is

Western Digital MyBook 1 TB - Great Capacity But Shorter Lived Than Other MyBooks By Mark The Western Digital My Book Essential 1 TB Hard Drive has great capacity but might not be well suited for this design. I've had great luck with my Western Digital drives, but may have bitten off more than I could chew with this 1 TB model. The bottom line is I now think that 1 TB might be too much capacity for a USB-only connection. Even though it might not be because of the size I did experience a hardware issue with the 1 TB model that had to be repaired. That was the first HD failure I've had with any of these WD external drives. The larger capacity means that the disk geometry has to work harder for the same form factor. When you consider that neither the speed nor the buffer were improved with this model, it's easier to see why the performance is slightly less than the 500 GB model. Ultimately I think it might make sense to step down to the Western Digital 500GB My Book Home Edition or the Western Digital My Book Premium 500 GB model instead. If you need 1 TB you might want to look at the Premium, Home, Studio or Professional versions in that capacity. I am nervous because of the negative press some of those have gotten, but the extra and faster interfaces would have to be better than this USB only Essentials version. For a 1 TB drive, the buffer has to get larger. This guy is still limited by the 480 Mps connection speed of USB 2.0 but gives you only a fraction of that in production. You can unplug the AC adapter to manually power it down from behind, or it will power down with your computer. The AC adapter helps it perform a little faster than the USB powered ones. The software utilities should be deleted by anybody but the most novice user. Just do cut and paste backups instead and use some other shareware or NTFS if you need to enable encryption. Connecting WD drives to different systems has always been a plus, and this drive connected to my Windows XP, Vista or Mac OS X computers. The only factor that should change whether or not you get this drive or another one would be size and connection type. Obviously, WD makes Pro and other versions of these drives that have firewire and SATA connectors. For most Mac users, firewire 2 connectivity is a must. I did experience my first drive failure with the 1 TB after only 3 months of use. From now on I'm stepping up to the higher end models for this capacity. Still, I may have just gotten a bad one and you might be luckier. Pros + Works well on multiple platforms: Windows Vista, XP and Mac OS X + Nice 16 MB buffer for faster copying speeds is still acceptable + New sleek body, more pleasing to the eye + Turns on and off with your computer + Very easy installation, virtually plug and play + Integrates nicely with my growing stable of WD MyBook drives + 1 TB truly is amazing capacity in one drive Cons - 1 TB capacity is probably the largest you would want for USB transfer with a 16 MB buffer - Software will only be useful for novice users and is not very good (after several years of these drives being on the market) - New shiny body attracts fingerprints and dust, may not appeal to everyone - Transfer speed still limited by USB only connection, must step up for FireWire ports - Price for 1 TB of capacity not as good as some smaller drives in $ price per gigabyte - AC adapter for power, not USB powered Conclusion This drive is great for those who want a large capacity drive. It's better to get a pair to guard against drive failures and backup your backup. Watch the price and try to get it on sale. Those looking for extra connectors (firewire, SATA) will want to step up to the other models. Enjoy! 159 of 167 people found the following review helpful.

DeKeyser Sometimes you buy something and you spend alot of money and just don't feel like you have gotten your moneys worth or don't use it enough to justify to yourself the purchase. Well, for me, the Archos device is just about the best purchase that I have ever made. It is just incredible. I literally use it every day. I take it on the train. I take it backpacking. I watch TV in bed before going to sleep. I even watch it at work occasionally. I really have no complaints whatsoever on this device! I previously purchased the Archos 604 30GB model. And yes, I bought all the plugins... This purchase was for the Wifi and higher resolution than my 604. After firmware upgrade it has worked flawlessly. Everything else on the device is just great. Let me say that I purchased the video iPod and the video itself looks great but it is SO SMALL! The screen size on this is perfect. I actually went thru alot of pain to get VIDEO ON THE IPOD! Well, this baby will play alot of formats the ipod will not. mpeg2, vob, avi, mpeg4. Just buy the plugins and you are good to go. Yes, its a little more expense.. blah blah blah To do movie conversion I use Nero Recoder for ipod (mpeg4). For TV shows I used bittorrent. :) Legally of course :) Somehow there are alot of negative comments about the device. I don't understand. I've had the 604 for about 6 months and still rave about it. The 605 is just as nice. If you don't own one already I'd recommend getting the 30GB one if you can afford it. The flash is nice for expansion but is slower for copying files to the device. Flash is getting much cheaper (2GB SD card for ~$20 now...) though. Anyway, if you want to watch video get the Archos. If you want a music player buy an iPod. If you want people to think you have money buy an iTouch. Hope my comments were useful to you. If you buy it and are dissappointed I will be too. The following is added after having the unit for over a month: - I still love it - Never had ANY problems playing video - Never had ANY problems playing music - Lockup has occurred using Web Browser. They are not frequent and I am assuming that Archos will continue to make the product more robust with Opera. They have yet to release the widgets so my guess is that they are working on it. So... still very happy with Web Browser - Complaints about having special cable are goofy (see iPod cable) - The Media Server option is GREAT! I have a Maxtor NAS drive which supports uPnP so I don't have to copy stuff onto the device itself. For shows > 1hr I copy them to the device because the fast forward does not work with the media server. (If you use PC and share then use the file browser, it does) All being said, I would lower the stars to 4.5 because of the lockups during Web Browsing. Hope the additional comments help you. Thanks Update on Dec 11: New firmware makes the device even better. Haven't seen any lockups using the webbrowser. And now it supports flash games. OK OK... so the CPU is not that powerful and it won't play alot of games to satisfaction but it does play the cards games just fine. Anyway... Yes yes yes... you have to buy plugins for the webbrowser and if you want to play some different formats... Just figure an extra 50 dollars. But again.. if you want to watch VIDEO then this IS the device for you. If you want music then there are ALOT of better mp3 players out there. And the complaints about video conversion.. well, 1 plugin buys you anything you would watch on the ipod. Like I said above.. sorry if you don't like it. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful.

To record t.v. you need the docking station and to download a proprietary t.v. program guide using the company supplied Archoslink software. The problem is that you can't download the tv program guide due to some defect in the Archoslink software. Archos has only told me that they have referred this problem to the engineers but I have heard nothing for a month I am not sure if this problem also effects the WiFi versions, but I would definitely not recommend buying this item until they have worked things out. Even then, the interface it very confusing and difficult to use particularly from the machine. The navigation is not at all intuitive and even once you learn the quirky system you still make a lot of mistakes at is that poorly designed. The company web site shares the software's poor design. For example to download the Archoslink software you need to search create an account with the serial and model numbers of both the machine and the docking station, and then confirm you information and search around for the software. The web site does not save your log in and when you click on a download the archoslink software link it takes you back to the log in page. The website has not have a search function and the software is not under the downloads link where you would expect it. The device also seems quite limited in they format of files it will play. You even need to purchase a codex to common types of files and many are not supported. There seem to be a number of similar devices out there that make a better choice. Do not be fooled by what at first seems like a low price for such a device. The added cost of the docking station and the necessary codex software significantly raise the cost and the time it takes to set up and frustration to use really add up. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Great Player...Great Price By D. Mack First, I bought the 405 because I did not want to fool around with a hard drive (the 405 has a 2GB internal flash drive and an SD slot for adding memory) and I did not want to fool around with wifi. Hard drives that get moved around alot break and wifi for small devices tends to be unreliable. That said, so far (one week) I'm very satisfied with this player. The screen (3.5") is easy to read. I use Microsoft Explorer to click-and-drag music files (whole albums and individual songs) onto the flash drive. You can sync with Windows Media Player, but it seems like an unnecessary hassle. I understand the complaints of the other reviewers. The advertised DVR should work. But, unfortunately, the more complicated inexpensive electronics get the more likely they'll disappoint. I also bought the mini dock...it allows you to plug the thing into the wall outlet to charge, you can hook up an external portable hard drive to hold more files, and you can patch out the picture on the screen to your tv. For $129 and another $29 for the dock I'm very happy. I haven't downloaded any video files and don't know if I will. The ones they included (dumb unit info) play fine. By the way, I posted a similar review a few days ago. I found out later that it wasn't posted because I wrote where to find SDHC cards cheap. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Cool little media screen! By Cory Dzbinski I picked this up from Ritz when they were closing one of their locations. Grabbed 4 of them for only $20 each, kept one and sold the rest on E Bay. It's a cool player with a high res screen that handles all kinds of media formats and with a separate doc can even double as a DVR for your TV shows which you can then watch on your TV or on the Archos 405. I use it for movies when traveling on a plane. I use a 16GB class 4 card in it for movies. It's a SOLID little device, built like a tank. See all 15 customer reviews...

Waal I was looking for a network attached storage system with a small footprint and low power requirement that was RAID1 configurable. The Buffalo unit exceeded my expectations - it was easy to install on my network of 4 computers and I'm well satisfied with its performance and ease of use. Well done! 1 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Lack of Support By Daniel Pires OSX Lion was announced about a year ago now, BUFFALO failed to work on a firmware update even though Apple released the OS to developers months before it's launch. So if you intend to buy this product for the TIME MACHINE feature on your MAC, well you my friend are SOL. So what's worse then misleading advertising on the box and on Amazon (that clearly states Time Machine Compatible)? The fact that this item may not even get the firmware update needed because it's an older model. Yep, I just got off the phone with their tech support and that's the message they gave me. So let me ge this straight, I bought this item in the Spring, used it for about 3 months at which point I updated my PC to Lion and now I have nothing more then a paper weight?! BUFFALO you've seen my last dollar. Looking though their forums you'll find many whom unlike me don't use this for their home, instead they rely on BUFFALO to provide their business with back ups and server needs. I can't even imagine the costs, damages and headaches they must be going through. If you're still interested in this model leave a message, I'd like to get rid of this paper weight. 4 of 9 people found the following review helpful.

Unfinished Product with bugs that keep it from a top-notch player By WDH Without a doubt, Denon rasied the bar with this product, but it is readily apparent they rushed production without proper Quality Assurance. The player suffers from a persistent bug that is quite enfuriating - it simply will not turn on once powered off. Multiple owners have reported this issue on AVSForums. Long story short, the player can be revived with a hard reset (via disconnecting the power for five minutes), which is a bit absurd considering the price and its the third generation of blu ray player released by Denon. Additionally, as of January 2011, the player does not have 3D playback capability despite its promised release via a firmware update in the fall of 2010. This is a big disappointment considering it is actually well-advertised on denon's website as a key feature. Lastly, the power-up or initial ready times have nearly doubled from its predecessor (the 1610) from 14 seconds to 26 seconds. In layman's terms, the player now takes nearly half a minute to open the disc drive when powered off. This is the longest time I can remember in a modern blu ray player. Outside of these two complaints, Denon has made strides in more compotent DVD playback; the 1611 excels with deinterlacing and cadence recognition, although most cadences require a momentarily lock-on. Video deinterlacing is still mediocre and aliasing does occur, but it's head and shoulders over the 1610. The player's source direct function is ideal for mating with an AVR with a proper video processing chipset (like the Denon AVR-2311ci and above models). That said, after a week of ownership with this player it is clear Denon rushed production and did not "work all the bugs out." Bit disappointing considering many lower-priced players offer 3D playback, more streaming options, wifi connectivity, and do not require unplugging for five minutes when you want to turn it on. 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Denon DPB-1611UD Universal Disc - BluRay player By ccmango I bought this unit because of Denon's reputation and because I have a Denon receiver that I like. It's convenient to be able to control the player on the single receiver remote. The player is simple and handsome in appearance. The picture seemed really good on my 54" Panasonic plasma TV. There were a couple of annoying things about its behavior, though. First, the disc drawer is very slow to open and close. I realize that there might be a lot of thinking that the electronics has to do, but it's exasperating to have to stand there with the disc in your hand for so long ( almost 10 secs sometimes). Second, this player has a noisy transport. You can hear the thing clunking from across the room. Finally, it had a strong smell of burning plastic when operating. I thought sure it was burning up, but nothing happened--for four months of light usage--until finally it died and would not power up. I guess it was burning up -- slowly. Then when I went to get service repairs, I found out that Denon contracts its warranty service to a TV repair shop across town that was only open on weekdays. The shop said it would be one month minimum to even find out what was wrong with it. They said that Denon does not support "board level" swap repairs which as a result requires that the faulty components on the circuit boards be identified and replaced with... whatever components the shop can find that will work--Denon does not provide their warranty shops with factory component parts for repairs. Overall, this unit was not worth the headache and I would not buy it--or any other Denon product again. I think that the quality is generally good for the money, but I would suggest that if one wanted to buy it, it would be wise to call the local Denon warranty repair shop and find out what kind of repair support Denon is providing to them--and to you the buyer,
