GL-35DSR Getting Started
1 Getting Started
1.1 About this Device
The ultra compact design of the GL-35DSR makes this dual-bay network storage enclosure one of
the smallest in the market, but it comes with flexibility and performance. Not only does it come with
all the standard functions a network drive offers but thanks to RAID protection, all valuable data
can be securely backed up and the built-in media server provides streaming of the digital content
on the local network. The installation of the 3.5" SATA hard drives is easy and quick, thanks to the
screw less design.
