Will DNS-323 work with Win7 64Bit
« on: February 11, 2010, 09:42:49 PM »

Are special drivers needed to allow DNS -323 to work in Win 7 64 bit version?

Nope... D-Link does have some drivers... but you dont need them

You can access the drive by mapping the drives
or directly through the "Network" in Start Menu

I use my DNS-323 and DNS-321 with Windows 7 both the 64 bit and one 32 bit machine, works fine with no drivers.  AAMOF, I've never loaded the D-Link drivers for any version of Windows, I use everything from Windows 2000 and up.

Works great with Win7-64. No drivers required.

Thanks for the positive responses - am trying to figure out what I am going to have to give up if installing the 64bit and the NAS was not an item I can give up!!!!!!

I'm actually very pleased with Windows 7 64-bit, it's nothing like the horror show that Vista-64 was when it was first released!  Drivers fell right into place, and there have only been a couple of applications that I had to work-around using Virtual XP Mode.

When I upgraded to Windows 7 I was (and still am) no longer able to access my DNS-323. See this topic:  http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=11065.0. I have no clue what is the problem.

As a work-around I enabled the ftp-server and use that to access the NAS in Windows Explorer.
