NDAS
General
1. For NDAS mode, do I need drivers installed on each computer using NDAS？
Yes, the drivers need to be loaded on each computer that wants access to NDAS. However, if you
are using Windows Sharing, only one computer will need the software installed. The other computers
will not need it.
LAN Share for Windows 2000 / XP / Server 2003
1. I am having trouble using Multi-write over wireless connection. What do you recommend？
Try a wired connection for our 3.X drivers and compare how it works. If you are using wireless with
other computers, we recommend enabling the hard-wired computer first, then the wireless computer.
When using wireless, we also recommend 802.11g. When using 802.11b, we highly recommend
hardwiring your computer when doing large file transfers because of the low bandwidth associated
with 802.11b.
2. How should I format NDAS？
Please refer to Chapter 6.7 Formatting NDAS Device.
3. How do I disconnect NDAS？
We always recommend using the Disable option from your NDAS Device Administrator Tool if
connected via NDAS (Ethernet). You can use the "Unplug or Eject Hardware" icon in your System
Tray to stop the LAN Share before disconnecting (this applies to either USB or NDAS mode). Close all
windows that may be accessing the NDAS.
4. When I try to write to NDAS, I get the following error message: "LAN Share is being used
by non-compatible software on another PC. You can use read-access only for now." What does
this mean？
This means that there is another computer on the network that has a different version of the NDAS
software installed. All machines must have the same exact version of our software. Please make
