1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:09,240
all right we're doing some video coverage on the LG this is the N1 T1 Nas

2
00:00:06,759 --> 00:00:15,440
unit so it's a combination Nas unit external Optical and USB drive so I'm

3
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:20,640
using their Nas detector software and I

4
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:20,640
have successfully located the LG Nas

5
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:28,599
so that was easy would you like to create a desktop icon for the selected

6
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:30,320
NAS network folder yes okay that was

7
00:00:28,599 --> 00:00:35,239
relatively simple so why don't do a quick speed test and then I'm actually

8
00:00:32,559 --> 00:00:39,079
going to I've installed two pieces of LG software the nas Monitor and the nas

9
00:00:37,559 --> 00:00:43,200
detector so I'm launching the nas monitor right now you can see I just use

10
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:48,960
their dis and click on those and then install them so here we've got the nas

11
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:51,239
monitor launching hopefully shortly is

12
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:57,480
this it y there it is uh okay so about Nas

13
00:00:54,480 --> 00:01:01,160
monitor open

14
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:06,080
uh why don't we open the web men

15
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:07,600
here we go so hm I don't have a user ID

16
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:12,280
it must have a default one I'm going to try admin with no

17
00:01:10,159 --> 00:01:16,040
password sometimes it's admin I may have to come back

18
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:20,880
shortly hey it's admin admin that was easy Okay so we've got a bunch of

19
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:26,640
different stuff in here you can see that we have the uh the basics of our Nas so

20
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:31,920
uh usage amount is all at around 1% we've got the firmware revision the fan

21
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:37,520
is set to silent let's see what else we can look at here so here's all of our

22
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:40,759
Network info so it's the system name system description you can change all

23
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:45,759
that good stuff IP address you can set it to obtain one manually or not uh

24
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:51,880
system time we have a number of other things

25
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:54,799
that we can check out here so power it

26
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:59,560
has different power settings okay that's pretty neat wow it's got a ton of stuff

27
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:05,920
in here you can do firmware updates uh from within this uh this menu right

28
00:02:03,079 --> 00:02:11,080
here see mail notification so you can get mail notification when let's see

29
00:02:08,920 --> 00:02:16,360
notification trigger hard drive status reports okay cool cool you can set up

30
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:16,360
user

31
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:24,879
accounts as well as shared folder names

32
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:30,160
you can do file backup so you can it looks like you can back up to DVD which

33
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:33,160
would be kind of neat Okay so it's actually got built-in burning software

34
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:38,000
right into the web menu so you throw a DVD in there and you can uh back up

35
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:41,800
anything from your hard drive to the dis you can rename your disc to something

36
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:46,159
else that's kind of cool it has a backup button so that's for the optical drive

37
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:49,319
data backup or backup to image so you have a couple different options you can

38
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:52,959
schedule backups you can do USB backup and it also supports Apple Time Machine

39
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:57,000
so you can set it to which volumes you want to back up so you can do torrent

40
00:02:55,440 --> 00:03:03,159
you can have a network printer it's a file server and finally it's got an

41
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:06,840
iTunes server as well as the

42
00:03:03,159 --> 00:03:09,640
DLNA okay so that is pretty much all I

43
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:14,959
wanted to say about this particular menu let's do a quick performance test so I

44
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:19,200
have uh okay I guess we'll know pretty quick whether or not it's working at

45
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:27,159
gigabit speeds but I have a movie file so this is a 266 megabyte file and I'm

46
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:29,920
going to go ahead and cut and paste it

47
00:03:27,159 --> 00:03:34,879
into the public volume let's see how how long it takes oh I need permission okay

48
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:39,680
maybe I won't put it in there okay let's try X hard

49
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:42,480
drive

50
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:46,720
cut oh okay maybe I just need to enter that admin

51
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:51,640
admin because you can set up different stuff yeah yeah there we go okay so

52
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,640
paste let's see how long it

53
00:03:54,239 --> 00:04:03,400
takes okay so far that's looking at kind of like that's looking at about like 10

54
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:05,079
100 speeds but we will know for sure

55
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:09,799
when we actually do the read test from the NZ so remember if you want to know

56
00:04:07,239 --> 00:04:14,920
exactly how fast it's going I'll don't use this number here the one there

57
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:20,959
instead you should use the total size of the file 266 Megs over the amount of

58
00:04:17,639 --> 00:04:22,360
time it took to copy paste it so let's

59
00:04:20,959 --> 00:04:26,240
go ahead and paste that to the desktop and let's see if that goes any faster

60
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,759
yes it is so the right speeds are a little bit limited on this particular

61
00:04:27,759 --> 00:04:34,280
Nas but the read speeds are quite good I over 30 mb per second and don't forget

62
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:40,360
that it has the capability with the switch on the back to be used with a

63
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:44,440
simple USB cable which they do include in the box so you just got a straight

64
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,880
USB a to a cable and then all you do is flick the switch right here and you can

65
00:04:46,039 --> 00:04:52,160
change it to an external optical drive or to an external hard drive that

66
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:56,560
operates off USB just with the flick of a button so right now you can see I have

67
00:04:53,759 --> 00:05:02,280
it set to NZ and I'm going to move the camera close to it just to demonstrate

68
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:05,840
you cannot hear that fan at all in fact I think it's off right now I heard it

69
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:09,479
spin up when it turned on so it is not defective but it's gone ahead and turned

70
00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:12,520
it off because there is no need for the fan to cool the hard drive when it's not

71
00:05:11,039 --> 00:05:16,120
doing anything really intensive so that's the silent setting that we saw

72
00:05:14,039 --> 00:05:22,400
before thank you for checking out my performance test of the LG network

73
00:05:18,199 --> 00:05:22,400
