Protecting Your Data
This chapter compares the different ways of protecting data on the NSA and explains how to 
use backup management software included on the CD.
12.1  Protection Methods
There are a variety of ways to protect your data on the NSA. Below is a summary table of what 
can be done in each situation.
The following sections describe these methods in more detail. See 
more information on RAID.
12.1.1  Configuration File Backup and Restoration
Use the Maintenance > Configuration menus to create a file of your NSA configurations 
such as passwords, shares and volumes created, network settings and so on. If you’re going to 
do some major configuration changes, then it is advisable to create a configuration backup file. 
If things go wrong after you make the configuration changes, you can always go back to the 
previous configuration by restoring an earlier configuration file. 
If you forgot the NSA password, then use the RESET button (see 
to return the NSA to the factory default configuration.

SITUATION
ACTION
Unexpected NSA behavior after configuration 
changes 
Back up the NSA configuration file before you make 
major configuration changes.
Need to transfer data from your computer to the 
NSA after volume(s) have been created
Use the Memeo Autobackup program.
Data infected by virus
Use anti-virus software on your computer to scan 
files before saving them onto the NSA. Although this 
may be slow so you may want to schedule it to 
occur while no one is using the NSA.
Use a firewall with anti-virus capability on your 
network.
Hard drive malfunction.
Use RAID.
NSA malfunction 
Network down
Natural disaster such as a fire or earthquake 
occurs where your NSA is located
Back up data to another NSA or external USB hard
