[i] Hard drive(s) not included. An internal 3.5" SATA drive is required to store or share your files. The internal SATA drives must be formatted before use. RAID 0 striping and RAID 1 mirroring require a minimum of two (2) SATA drives. To avoid data incompatibility in RAID 0 or RAID 1, use SATA drives with the same capacity and from the same manufacturer. Formatted drive capacity for RAID 1 operation is dependent on the drive capacity of the lowest-sized drive. May not work with older generation SATA drives. For a list of SATA drives that have been tested to work with the DNS-320L, visit http://support.dlink.com.

[ii] Use of an FTP Server over the Internet does not provide secure or encrypted transmissions, unless the end user enables SSL authentication in their FTP client.

[iii] D-Link cannot guarantee full compatibility or proper playback with all codecs. Playback compatibility depends on the codec support of the UPnP(TM) AV media player.
