DNS-1550-04
D-Link’s DNS-1550-04 is a 4-bay, 19’’ rackmount unified storage solution that enables users 
to safely share and back-up mission critical data. This NAS/iSCSI storage solution includes 
advanced features such as Snapshots, replication and data encryption usually found only in 
higher-end devices, with no need to purchase additional licenses.
The DNS-1550-04 also includes an intuitive user interface to ensure it can be quickly installed, 
and easily managed, even by users with limited IT experience.
NAS File Server
Businesses will appreciate the NAS file server in the DNS-1550-04 which takes full advantage of 
the accelerated performance provided by iSCSI. The web file manager provides access to files 
stored on the NAS to users with the appropriate credentials.
A Variety of Backup Options
The DNS-1550-04 offers several backup options which allow administrators and users to control 
how, when, and where their data is stored. Share files across the network or over the Internet 
via FTP or access them via the easy-to-use web file manager. Remote back-up enables users 
to keep a copy of their files on a remote NAS for a disaster recovery solution, providing extra 
data protection, and volume snapshots can restore a whole volume in a matter of minutes; 
in contrast to traditional backup schemes that can take hours. Users can also take a volume 
snapshot, backup to Amazon S3 cloud storage, or remotely back up to a server by using an 
resync backup utility. Many third-party backup solutions like Acronis Backup & Recovery are 
also supported.
Share Printers and USB Storage
USB connectivity provides the option to establish a printer server, monitor a UPS, or connect 
USB devices such as hard drives and flash storage.
