Equipment Required for Installation

To connect, install and administer your MaxAttach NAS 4100, you will need an available 10/100
Ethernet network hub or switch. It will be necessary for your workstation to have the following
capabilities:
• Windows 95/98/Me/NT (SP5)/2000
• Internet Explorer v4.01 SP1 or newer - support for Netscape is not currently available.
• Client for Microsoft Networks enabled over TCP/IP.
• Network Interface Card (NIC)
• CD-ROM Drive

Site Planning

When planning a site to house your MaxAttach NAS 4100, you will want to consider requirements
for power and network availability, as well as a space with well regulated temperature and humidity
that is relatively free of dust and other air-born contaminants. If your installation calls for placement
on a table top, apply the enclosed rubber feet to the bottom of the chassis.
The following tables are designed to help you plan your MaxAttach NAS 4100 installation.
