8. Select the ‘EAC Options’ menu.
9. Select the ‘Directories’ tab. Click the ‘Use this directory’ radio button
and enter the details of the NAS. This should take the following form:
\\hostname.domain_name\media\music\flac
Where,
Hostname – defaulted to NAS001
Domain Name – automatically generated by any DNS which would
have to be on the same network as the NAS
If there is no DNS you may have to map the NAS as a web page
within Windows Explorer. When this is complete the directory will
have the form:
\\192.168.1.3\media\music\flac
The IP address will be that of the NAS. This is shown on the front
panel of the NAS by pressing and releasing the standby switch.
Using the setup wizard lets EAC determine the best setup for the
PC/laptop’s drive.
