ADM 2.5 PART 2

Everything related to the installed drives is placed inside the Storage Manager tab so here you can create and manage volumes (JBOD/RAID), check the state of the drives via SMART and use the iSCSI feature.

The System Information tab allows the end user to check the state of the hardware components of the NAS (including their temperatures), check the network activity, read logs, see who's logged in and use the DR.ASUSTOR diagnostic tool.

ASUSTOR may not have as many applications as QNAP but they make more and more available everyday so aside the 37 "official" ones their App Central has many more.

From the Download Server tab not only can you download files using the BitTorrent Client but you can also use it to download files directly from HTTP/FTP.

The ASUS WebStorage tab allows you to link your ASUS WebStorage account (2-5GB of cloud space) to sync files directly to it from the NAS.

ASUSTOR has added more camera models in their Surveillance Center (27 manufacturers now instead of 13 in the last version) but it still needs work. I'm saying this not only because none of our 3 installed IP cameras (Linksys, TRENDnet, iMege) was detected by the auto feature but in terms of available IP camera models ASUSTOR still has a limited number.

Still thanks to the extra manufacturers compared to last time and the ONVIF compatibility mode we were able to manually setup all 3 models (although the iMege one would not show in the main screen).
