Default ARGOSY - HD363N - Network Storage

I too have a 363n (firmware 007-1005) but with another problem.

Copying files to the drive- OK
access with FTP or windows-explorer - OK

access of files (mp3) on drive with an application like e.g. MP3TAG or
AlbumCoverArtDownloader - it does not find any files !? it does
find (sub)directories !?


anybody else have this problem ????

Windows Media Player works fine on my drive. Some applications can't
deal with network paths and you have to map drive letters to the
drive folders to access them. Could that be your problem?

By the way, my drive is still up after three weeks - best I could do
before was a couple days :nod: .

Nope,

that's not it

I have mapped drive-letters to the shares but the applications just
don't see the files

Default ARGOSY - HD363N - Network Storage


This site seems to be the only place to come to to get answers about the
HD-363N. I've had one for several months now and have been quite happy
with it.

So I went out and purchased a second one. No matter what I do, it
doesn't appear that I can have them both connected at the same time and
powered on. I renamed the second one to "backup-xxxx" and the original
retains the "storage-xxxx" moniker. While the storage drive is running
I can map a drive in XP and find the device using IE by going to
http://storoge

If I turn the storage drive off and boot up the backup drive, I can map
map a drive to it in XP as well. I can also find the drive by going to
http://backup If I have both drives on at the same time, I can only
access the drive that was booted first.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks
Jim

This may be obvious, but have you checked the IP config on each
device? Perhaps they're using the same IP address?

This sounds like a device with the same/ similar firmware to my
external box.
Try disabling the DHCP on the device you can access and setting
it's IP address high into the range of your local network. For example,
my house has 10.0.0.2 as the modem-DHCP server-gateway, various
machines attaching in the DHCP range 10.0.0.5 to 10.0.0.20 (I only have
an 8-port hub), then the print server is hard set at 10.0.0.248 and the
file server at 10.0.0.250.
If this is gobbledegook to you, then you need a primer in TCP/IP
networking. Of which there are plenty. The Linus Network
Administrator's Guide (NAG) is a good, and freely available, primer.
It's available in several formats for online or offline browsing at
http://tldp.org/guides.html#nag2 (if you're messing with your
connectivity, you should have it locally available in case you screw
your connection).

Thanks for the tips, here is what I have attempted to do so far.

I've tried allowing both devices to obtain an IP address automatically
(I have the DSL modem as the DHCP Server). This did not work.

I have tried setting a static IP on one device and allowing the other
to obtain automatically, but that also failed.

Lastly, I also set the IP on both devices, as xxx.xxx.xxx.253 and
xxx.xxx.xxx.252 where the modem is residing at xxx.xxx.xxx.254.

In all of these cases I can only access the device that was powered on
first. If I map network drives by doing a computer search in XP for
"Storage" or "Backup" when only one is powered on everything works as
expected.

Also, if I attempt to access the device through windows explorer via
typing:
\\storage\PUBLIC
it prompts me for a user name and password, but it will not accept
admin and my admin password.

When I get home this evening I will attempt to try all of these
senerios again to make sure I'm not missing anything. Is anyone else
here running 2 of these devices on the same network?

When I upgraded to the latest the scan did find a bunch of bad files
the first time I ran it. There have been no more since. I beleive
that the latest firmware is better at finding bad files and preventing
more from getting corrupted. So far all the problems I was having with
the drive crashing are gone!

This verison is also must, if you want to access the drive in
Windows Vista. Apart from this patch, you
also need to the following:

Click "Start - Run." Then, type in the Run field:
"secpol.msc." That will bring you to Vista's security policy
system. Once there, use "Go to: Local Policies Security
Options" and then find "Network Security: LAN Manager"
authentication level. Once there, change the Setting from "Send
NTLMv2 response only" to "Send LM & NTLM -- use NTLMv2
session security if negotiated."

Enjoy

I wanted to let others know that I recently purchased a TRI-NSS001
enclosure made by tritton technologies from tigerdirect for 79$(89-10
rebate). (same box as the HD363N)

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...?EdpNo=1209341

It had firmware level NetHDD007-1005 loaded on it. I could not get
this level to work properly. I would copy a .txt file or .jpg file to
the nas and try to look at it and got 'unknown' file type(using
windows xp)....After reading this forum one append said to stick with
the tritton firmware. I took that advice and downloaded what apppeared
to be a lower level of firmware at NetHDD006-1013. Well, the lower
level resolved all my problems. The box works perfect now. Hard to
believe that Tritton would ship a box with code that doesn't work. I
got a a seagate 400GB drive for 109$, so for around 200$, I got
something that I'm satisfied with so far.

Hi All.

So I upgraded from Tritton's firmware to Argosy's firmware in order to
use it with Windows Vista (and I was pleasantly surprised to find it
works with OSX as well). For over a month things have been fine.

Recently I discovered some files were corrupt. I couldn't figure out
why, so I did a test, sending a file from Vista to the drive and then
back from the drive to Vista. When I tried to open the file it was
corrupt.

So it looks like the drive is now corrupting my files. What can I do?
Is this a firmware issue or is it because I went from Tritton to
Argosy? Are all my files screwed now? Can I still yank the drive and
put it in a firewire case and save my files?
