If you are using Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2012, the

Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator is already installed on your computer. You don’t need to download and install it.

iSCSI Setup

To use the TeraStation as an iSCSI hard drive, configure it as described below.

1 Connect the TeraStation’s Ethernet and power cables and configure the TeraStation’s IP address and its clock.

2 In Settings, click Drives.

3 Choose LVM.

4 Select the drive where the volume will be created and click Enable LVM on Volume.

Notes:

• Enabling LVM before using a drive as an iSCSI drive is optional. If LVM is not enabled, you can still create one iSCSI

volume from the entire drive. However, enabling LVM is recommended for drives that will be used for iSCSI.

• If the LVM settings are changed, all data on the volume will be erased. Before changing the settings, back up any

important data.

5 The “Confirm Operation” screen will open. Enter the displayed number, then click OK.

6 Click OK.

7 Move the iSCSI switch to the position to enable iSCSI.

8 Click to the right of “iSCSI”.

9 Click Create Volume.
