NAS instructions - Fastora
The Network Attached Storage (NAS) unit provides storage for MPEG-1 proxy
video, storyboards, and thumbnails. It may also be configured to store Edit Decision
Lists (EDL) that are saved to the system. Encoders are configured to write to specific
locations on the NAS via 100Tx connections over the network. Client access is
provided via Gigabit Ethernet uplink to the Client Network.
Aurora Browse Proxy NAS (Fastora 104)
Cable as illustrated and as follows:
• For systems with one unified Production network, connect LAN port 1 to the
Production network.
• For systems with a Production network consisting of a media network and a control
network, connect LAN port 1 to the media network and LAN port 2 to the control
network.
• Connect Gigabit port 1 to the Client network.
• Connect both power cables from the back of the NAS to a power supply.
Power supply units are hot-swappable. Once power is applied using switches on the
rear panel, use the power switch on the front panel to power down. Failure to use the
front switch will cause the disk array to rebuild on the next power up.
