3 Iomega Confidential 3 Overview: Home Media Network Hard Drive The Home Media Network Hard Drive is a complete redesign of the Home Network Hard Drive with the customer in mind. This device has been designed from the ground up with an streamlined UI, simplified client interface, and reliance on the operating system’s own user login for protection. From the Home Storage Manager client- side tool to the web administration tools, the Home Media Network Hard Drive is unlike anything Iomega has done before. Home Storage Manager client software provides easy and automatic handling of public and private shares. After the client software is installed, all public shares are mounted automatically within My Computer or on the Mac Desktop. Any adjustment within the Web UI of the Home Media Network Drive is detected by the client software and immediately acted upon. Most basic users won’t need to make any changes to immediately utilize the DLNA and iTunes server built in to this device.

This network hard drive automatically streams movies using the DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) standards and audio using iTunes server capabilities. Securing folders to protect your personal information is a breeze. Home Storage Manager automatically notifies you when a secure location is available to access. The Home Media Network Hard Drive allows remote access to your files and introduces BitTorrent and FTP features. (New with 2.0) The interface for the Home Media Network Hard Drive has been expanded to include Remote Access to your files. With the introduction of the “ActiveFolders” system, BitTorrent downloads and FTP support is as simple as dragging and dropping your files.
