Updating firmware...
« on: June 14, 2012, 09:28:09 PM »
Hello friends.

I bought a DNS 320 today here in Brazil.
Current NAS Firmware Version:1:00
Firmware Date:09/07/2010
In the box diz Importado por D-LINK BRASIL LTDA

Which version should I upgrade (200,202,203-beta) ?
http://tsd.dlink.com.tw/downloads2008detail.asp
for WW version ?
My DNS 320 is A1 or A2 ?
Is compactible ?
Which version corrupts data ?


I will use 2 HDDs 2 Tb.

thank you
Excuse my poor English.
Marcelo

Upgrading firmware doesn't effect (corrupt) your data.

As for which version to upgrade to, I suggest going for v2.00 which is the stable release. Do take note that any version above 2.01 onward doesn't allow downgrading.

The serial number sticker on your DNS-320 will indicate whether the device is hardware version "A1" or "A2".  The more recent firmware versions support HDDs larger than 2TB. Since you are have no immediate need for larger (>2TB) HDD capacity, you should be okay with firmware version 2.00 as the last poster indicated.

Hello,

http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=47346.msg179115#msg179115

http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=46679.msg170695#msg170695

The two problems above occur with versions 2.2 and 2.03 ?

My NAS is with version 1.00.
I am in doubt whether to upgrade to a 2.00 or higher (2.02,2.03).

I will use two 2TB disks.
The 2.00 version works stable with 2TB HDD ?


Very thanks again for help.
sorry my bad inglish
