Advanced Settings
Maintenance (Initialization)
Initialization is a reset procedure that restores 
all settings back to the default, out of box, 
configuration.  All configuration, users, groups, 
and backup jobs are lost, but actual data and 
shares on the hard are NOT lost.  If you want 
all data to be erased, reformat the drive.
Specify whether the TeraStation shall keep its 
administrator password after a initialization 
or whether the password should be reset to 
the default password (default password is 
password).  Press the Apply button once you 
make the selection.
Press the Restore button to begin the initialization process; this will restore all settings to factory 
defaults but will NOT erase the data on the hard drives.  Start Disk Formatting begins a complete 
disk format that will erase all information on the TeraStation’s internal hard drives.  This cannot 
be undone.
