SETUP

Using the XFinder software by QSAN simplifies the entire setup procedure since it detects the NAS on your local network (double click on the unit to launch your web browser).

If the NAS detects a new QSM OS version it will perform an automatic update prior to starting the setup procedure.

The setup wizard has two options, quick setup and customized setup (we always choose the latter).

As with other NAS models you will need to enter a password, set the time and date, configure the network settings and choose the desired mode for the mounted drives (for our tests we start with RAID 0 followed by RAID 5).

After this the NAS will boot and you will have to create a volume and a folder as seen above (QSAN also informs you of some of the other functions and features of their NAS).
