13. Click on Disk Management and you will see a new hard disk listed.

target as a local drive. 

 

Because Windows Vista has the Microsoft iSCSI Initiator pre-installed, you will not 
have to install this piece of software. Instead, start the iSCSI Initiator and follow 

steps 8-14 to map the N5200PRO as an iSCSI drive. 
 

There are a number of ways to back up data with the N5200PRO.  

You can backup a share folder to another N5200PRO (Nsync Target) or any FTP 
server for safe keeping as long as you have appropriate access right on that 
target. When using Nsync between two N5200PROs, you have the option to 

transmit files securely between two N5200PROs.  
 

If the files on your N5200PRO are lost for any reason, you can restore those files 
from the target N5200PRO. To backup files regularly, you can set up a scheduled 

task to run only once, daily, weekly, or monthly. You can also limit the bandwidth 
of your Nsync tasks, so other users on the network can share the bandwidth 

equally. 
 
Under the Storage menu, click Nsync and the Nsync window appears. Below is
