I used this for about two weeks before realizing that you get what you pay for. This is not a viable solution for a NAS of any real value. It is. I bought one to replace a Mac Mini, intending to reduce my power consumption from 25-110watts to 3-9watts. For me, for the price I paid.

My 1TB drive took 11 hours to completely scan and fix all errors before I could finally hook it back up to the device so it would get recognized. i think i got this for free at 19.99 i paid for this is great ; cheap price compared to the hundred dollar retail price ; newegg is the best none

Safely Removing Drives From the Network Adapter
It is important to eject a drive safely before unplugging it from the DockStar network adapter. This will prevent any loss of data or file system corruption. There are two ways to eject a drive safely using the Web interface: From the My library page: Locate the drive you want to eject in the drive navigation bar on the left side of the page and then click the Safely remove this drive icon next to the name of the drive. From the Settings page: Locate the drives attached to the network adapter and then click the eject link next to the drive you want to remove.
Allow about 20 seconds for the drive to complete any activity (or wait for the drive lights to turn off) before removing the drive from the network adapter.
Accessing Your Drive Content
With your drive connected to the DockStar network adapter, youre free to share whats on the drive with friends and family, and to access your content from a remote location. All the drives connected to the network adapter are viewable by anyone in your home network who accesses your drive using the drive application or Web browser. However, the people you share with outside of your home network can see only the contents you choose to share. The simplest way to access the network adapter is to use the Pogoplug Web interface. (See Signing In to Your Account on page 13.) You can, however, access the content on your drive using other methods, described below.
Enabling Windows File Sharing on the DockStar Network Adapter
You can access the network adapter on your local network without using the Pogoplug interface by setting up Windows File Sharing (WFS). This method is also beneficial in the event of a failed Internet connection.
Note: All users on your local network will have access to the content that is enabled for file sharing using this method.
You must first set up file sharing using the Pogoplug service. Thereafter, you can use Windows file sharing without having to sign in to your account. Each USB drive attached to the network adapter must be enabled for Windows file sharing. You can do this at any time, even if you chose not to subscribe to the Pogoplug service after the free first year. To enable Windows File Sharing: 1. Launch your Web browser and type http://dockstar.pogoplug.com in the address bar. 2. Sign in to your account. 3. Click the Settings button on the menu at the top. The Settings page opens. 4. Click WFS in the left pane. The Windows File Sharing page opens. 5. Select Active next to the device to which you want to allow access. Refresh your browser if you dont see the menu for setting access permission (in the following step). 6. Set the access permission to Read and write or Read only. (You can also disable file sharing be selecting Disabled.) Your permissions are set automatically once you make your selection. 7. Repeat the steps above for each USB drive attached to the DockStar network adapter.

You can also change the default workgroup name, SEAGATEGROUP, on this page.
8. Click Sign out to exit the Pogoplug service.

See the Pogoplug help or the community forum at pogoplugged.com for more information about using Preferences.
Since the DockStar network adapter provides local and remote access to your drive, you can also use this networked storage space to back up new content from your computer. The following methods allow you to create new folders on your drive(s) connected to the network adapter, which you can use solely for backup. If later you decide to share your backed up content, its available. Your content is secure and can only be shared if you choose to do so. To back up using the Pogoplug Web interface, log in to your account, open My library and then click the Upload button. Click New Folder to create a new folder. To back up using the drive application, open the drive application, navigate to the drive to which you want to back up (for example, P:\Seagate FreeAgent Go) and then drag and drop your files onto the drive.
See Continuing Backups to Your FreeAgent Go Drive on page 18 for instructions on backing up to a FreeAgent Go drive that has a scheduled backup plan already in place.

Using Your FreeAgent Go Drive With the DockStar Network Adapter
A FreeAgent Go drive simply slides into the DockStar network adapter, making it easy to remove when you want to take the drive with you while on the go. When you use the network adapter with a FreeAgent Go drive, you can: Remotely access and share your files. Use an existing Seagate Manager Backup Plan to continue backing up content whether your FreeAgent Go drive is connected to your computer or to the network adapter. See Continuing Backups to Your FreeAgent Go Drive on page 18. Use a FreeAgent Go drive to back up multiple computers without having to disconnect and reconnect it.
When a FreeAgent Go drive with a scheduled Backup Plan is moved back and forth between your computer and the network adapter, the backup automatically continues to work. You must create a Backup Plan while the FreeAgent Go drive is connected to your computer before connecting the drive to the DockStar network adapter. However, you cant access backed up files stored in an encrypted folder. If your Backup Plan includes encryption, you must delete it in Seagate Manager and then create a new Backup Plan without encryption to continue to back up data on the FreeAgent Go drive when its connected to the network adapter.
Continuing Backups to Your FreeAgent Go Drive
There are a few things you have to do before you can continue backups to your FreeAgent Go drive while its connected to the DockStar network adapter. Register and activate your DockStar network adapter and create a user account. Update your Seagate Manager software to version 2.1.600 or later. Enable the network adapter for use with Seagate Manager by downloading the Pogoplug drive application for your operating system.
Updating your Seagate Manager Software
You must be using Seagate Manager software version 2.1.600 or later to back up to your FreeAgent Go drive while its connected to the network adapter. Follow these steps if you are using a FreeAgent Go drive for the first time. Otherwise, see Updating Seagate Manager From a Previous Version on page 19. 1. Connect your FreeAgent Go drive to your computer to install the Seagate Manager software. Start the Seagate Manager application if it does not automatically launch. 2. Check to see the version of Seagate Manager that was installed. The software version is shown in the lower right of the Seagate Manager screen.

Troubleshooting

3. If the software version is not 2.1.600 or later, see Updating Seagate Manager From a Previous Version.
Updating Seagate Manager From a Previous Version
Go to http://www.seagate.com and then locate Support Downloads to update Seagate Manager to version 2.1.600 or later.

Enabling the Network Adapter for Use with Seagate Manager
You must download and install the drive application on your computer so Seagate Manager can see the network adapter drive letter when the adapter is connected to your router. This application software displays all drives attached to the network adapter the same way it displays directly attached, or logical, drives. It also allows you to see and access all drives and folders shared with you in the Files shared with me folder.
Note: You must have already connected the DockStar network adapter to your router and activated your account. Go to http://www.seagate.com/activatemydockstar to activate.
1. Download the drive application. See Accessing Your Content Using the Drive Application on page 16 for instructions. 2. Open Seagate Manager and then go to the My Drives window. 3. Scroll down through your connected external drives and click DockStar. The DockStar network adapter is assigned to your P: drive if that drive letter is available. If the P: drive is not free, the network adapter is assigned the next available drive letter after that (Q:, R,: etc.). 4. Click Backup to create your Backup Plan. Once your Backup Plan is completed, your content continues backing up to your FreeAgent Go drive, whether its connected to the network adapter or your computer.
The DockStar network adapter is a plug and play device. However, in certain situations, the setup process may require extra attention. Below is a list of troubleshooting tips to assist you should you have any problems during installation. If the network adapter is connected to a power source and to a router but the light on the front is not solid green, try these troubleshooting tips: Ensure that the supplied power adapter is securely connected to the network adapter and to a power source. If you are using a power strip, make sure it is turned on.

Finding More Help

Check that one end of your network cable is securely connected to the Ethernet port on the network adapter and the other end is connected to a functioning port on your network router. If the network cable is securely connected and the light is amber, the network cable or the Ethernet port may not be functioning properly. To test this, connect the network cable to a different port on your router. If there is still no connection, try a different Ethernet cable or a different network. Make sure your router is turned on.
Ensure that your router gives out IP addresses to computers on your network (DHCP) and that DHCP is enabled on your router. DHCP is usually enabled on home networks. If it is not, you will have trouble connecting to the DockStar network adapter. If you need assistance enabling DHCP on your router, see your router documentation. You may have a firewall installed that blocks UDP, or UDP is disabled on your router. The DockStar network adapter will not function properly if you have a firewall setup that blocks the transmission of UDP packets or if UDP is turned off in your router configuration. The network adapter attempts to send outbound UDP packets through the default gateway assigned by DHCP to service.pogoplug.com port 4365. It expects to hear back UDP from the same host from the same port to the local port it sent them from (which is random). Most NAT (Network Address Translation) routers have UDP session management that allows outbound UDP to implicitly allow responses back to the source machine and port. If you have custom firewall rules set up on your router, you need to add a rule from the DockStar network adapter in and out to service.pogoplug.com port 4365. See your router documentation if you need help. Once the network adapter receives UDP responses to its initial request to the service, the LED should be solid green. The LED remains amber if UDP responses fail.

If the light is still amber, this means that there is an issue with the Internet connection or the network adapter is not connected to the Pogoplug service. Unplug the network adapter from the power source and plug it back in.

The FreeAgent Go drive simply slides into the FreeAgent DockStar network adapter, making it easy to remove when you want to take the drive with you while on-the-go. All other USB storage devices plug into one of the two rear-mounted or one side-mounted USB ports. The FreeAgent DockStar network adapter simultaneously supports up to four storage devices, so you will never have to worry about running out of storage space. And, you will experience incredible performance with Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. You can easily navigate the user interface with thumbnail or list views, search by file name or filter by media type. The FreeAgent DockStar network adapter also appears like a local drive on your computer, so that you can easily navigate and drag-and-drop files just like a folder on your desktop. With a free iPhone app, you will always have access to your content, even while on-the-go. You can send pictures straight from your iPhone to a folder on the FreeAgent DockStar network adapter. The FreeAgent DockStar network adapter offers one of the easiest ways to share files with friends, anywhere in the world. Simply type in your friends' email addresses and they will receive an email linked to the folders or files you chose to share with them. They will now have access to their own FreeAgent DockStar interface which displays all of the files shared with them. If your friends also have FreeAgent DockStar network adapters, they will not only see their own files, but all of the files shared with them in the same user interface. Integrate with your favorite social media sites and keep your friends in the loop with easy-to-publish RSS feeds, allowing you to easily update your shared content. Instead of constantly uploading new images to your favorite social media page, simply copy and paste a single RSS link from the FreeAgent DockStar folder containing the pictures you want to share. Now, every time you add pictures to that particular folder on the FreeAgent DockStar network adapter, they will automatically appear on your social media page. No need to waste time uploading to the internet! Transferring files to your FreeAgent DockStar network adapter, using your home network, is significantly faster than uploading to the Internet.
