Model ND508/ND520 Network Disk Drive Installation Guide

NETGEAR provides an automapping program to simplify setting up drive

mappings for your network disk drives. (Mapping is a Windows term that means

“assigning.”) This program automatically maps (or assigns) a drive letter to the

public folder of each network disk drive on your network. The NETGEAR

Network Disk Drive Automap Utility is located on the

Model ND508/ND520

Network Disk Drive Resource

CD. For instructions for manually mapping to

folders through Network Neighborhood, refer to

“Manually Mapping to Network Disk

Drives

,”later in this section.

Installing the Network Disk Drive Automap Utility

To install the utility:

1. Insert the

Resource

CD in the CD drive of your computer.

The Network Disk Drive Resource CD window opens.

2. Click on Map to NETGEAR Network Disk Drives.

If the Automap Utility was not previously installed on your computer, you

will be asked if you want to install it now.

3. Click on Yes to proceed with the installation.

The Welcome window opens.

4. Read the Welcome window, and click on Next.

The Choose Destination Location window opens.

5. Click on Next to install into the default location.

The Select Program Folder window opens.

6. Click on Next to install into the default location.

The Start Copying Files window opens.

7. Verify that the information in the Start Copying Files window is

correct, or go back to change information as necessary.

8. Click on Next to install the Automap Utility.

The Setup Complete window opens when installation is complete.

9. Click on Finish.

Some versions of Windows may require you to reboot. If you are prompted

to reboot, you should do so at this time.

Note:

When you power on your PC, be sure to enter your network

password at the logon prompt. If you select Cancel to bypass the

network logon, you will be unable to access network disk drives or

any other drives on your network.

Map to the Network Disk Drive

Model ND508/ND520 Network Disk Drive Installation Guide

Automatically Mapping to Network Disk Drives

To automatically map to network disk drives:

1. Click on the FirstGear for Network Drives icon on your Windows

desktop.

TheAutomap Utility searches the network for network disk drives. The next

available drive letter will automatically be assigned to the Public folder of

any new NETGEAR network disk drives that have been added to your

network.

Manually Mapping to Network Disk Drives

For some network conﬁgurations, it is necessary to manually map the network

disk drive. If the Automap Utility did not locate your network disk drive, you

must map to it manually.

To manually map to network disk drives:

1. From the Start button, select Find > Computer, type the name of your

network disk drive at the prompt, and click on Find Now.

The default name of the network disk drive is NETGEARxxxxxx. The

xxxxxx of the default name is the last six digits of the 12-digit MAC address

of the network disk drive. The MAC address can be found on the bottom of

your drive or on the Please Read: MAC Address Labels card included in

your shipment.

2. Double-click on the network disk drive that you want to connect to.

3. Right-click on the Public folder of the network disk drive.

A menu opens.

4. From the menu, choose Map Network Drive.

5. In the Drive ﬁeld, enter or select the drive letter you want to use for this

network disk drive.

6. Click on OK.

The network disk drive is ready for use.

If you cannot locate the network disk drive on your network, or if you prefer

to manually conﬁgure the IP address of your network disk drive, refer to

Reference Guide for the Model ND508/ND520 Network Disk Drive

on your

Resource

CD.

Model ND508/ND520 Network Disk Drive Installation Guide

You can start using the network disk drive as you would any other drive on your

network. For example:

•Browse to the drive in Windows Explorer or Network Neighborhood.

•Create and save shared ﬁles in the drive’s Public folder.

•Copy ﬁles to the drive for storage.

•Create shortcuts to folders that you use often.

In its default conﬁguration, the network disk drive permits everyone on your

network to access ﬁles saved on the drive. The administrator can use the

Web-based administration tools to change access, if necessary.
