Oct 27, 2017 It is suggested that you go to Storage Manager to run 'Check File System'. But I can't find this 'Check File System' anywhere - can someone show me where this is? TS-879Pro (firmware 4.2.0, 8 hard drives in a RAID6, accessed from Apple machines).
.Encryption Key File: Upload the encryption file to the NAS to unlock the disk volume. The key can be downloaded from 'Encryption Key Management' page after the disk volume has been unlocked successfully.The data encryption functions may not be available in accordance to the legislative restrictions of some countries (ex. Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.)Data Encryption on QNAP Turbo NASThe disk volumes on the NAS can be encrypted with 256-bit AES encryption for data breach protection. The encrypted disk volumes can only be mounted for normal read/write access with the authorized password. The encryption feature protects the confidential data from unauthorized access even if the hard drives or the entire NAS were stolen.About AES encryption:In cryptography, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is an encryption standard adopted by the U.S. The standard comprises three block ciphers, AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256.
Each AES cipher has a 128-bit block size, with key sizes of 128, 192 and 256 bits, respectively. The AES ciphers have been analyzed extensively and are now used worldwide. (Source: )The AES volume-based encryption is applicable only to specific QNAP NAS models.Please refer to the comparison table at:Before you StartPlease beware of the following before using the data encryption feature of the NAS. 6.Select 'Yes' for the 'Encryption' option and enter the encryption settings. Then click 'Create' to create the new encrypted volume.Note that all the data on the selected drives will be DELETED! Please back up the data before creating the encrypted volume.You have created an encrypted disk volume on the NAS.Encryption VerificationTo verify the disk volume is encrypted, login the NAS as an administrator. Go to 'Storage Manager' 'Volume Management'.
You will be able to see the encrypted disk volume, with a lock icon in the Status column. The lock will be open if the encrypted volume has been unlocked. A disk volume without the lock icon in the Status column is not encrypted.Behavior of Encrypted Volumes upon System RebootIn this example, we have two encrypted disk volumes on the NAS.Save Encryption Key: Save the encryption key on the NAS for automatic unlocking and mounting the encrypted disk volume when the NAS restarts.Unlocking Disk Volumes ManuallyTo unlock a volume, login the NAS as an administrator. Go to ' Storage Manager ' 'Encrypted File System'. You will be able to see your encrypted volumes and their status: locked or unlocked. To unlock your volume, first click 'Unlock this device'.

Choose to either input the encryption password, or use the encryption key file that has been exported previously. If the encryption password or the key file is correct, the volume will be unlocked and become available.url© 2015 QNAP Systems, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
