How does iConnect work?

The iConnect provides a handy QuikTransfer feature which allows you to plug in a storage device, press a front panel button, and have the drive’s contents copied to a predefined folder on another attached drive. You can also define a series of copy jobs that replicate the data from any pair of attached devices, either when the QuickTransfer button is pressed, or according to a set schedule (which is useful for backing up data internally.) In addition, the iConnect can automate the transfer of photos from digital cameras that support PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol).

How many USB ports does the iConnect have?

The iConnect has a sleek, low-profile black plastic case (6.3W x 5.1D x 1H, in inches) with three USB ports on the front plus a fourth on the back alongside Gigabit Ethernet and AC power connectors. While the abundance of USB ports is a definite plus, having most of them up front can make for messy cable clutter when connecting hard drives rather than flash storage, so we think most users would have much preferred a slightly taller design with all but one of the ports in back. Irrespective of their location, all of the iConnect’s USB ports can accommodate either storage devices or printers, and up to two of the latter simultaneously.

Is Iomega iConnect wireless?

Although it could use some feature tweaks and a better physical design, if you’d like to conjure up decent network storage from ordinary USB devices, the Iomega iConnect Wireless Data Station provides a simple and inexpensive way to do it.

Does iConnect have internal storage?

The iConnect has no internal storage of its own; conceptually, it’s similar to the CloudEngines PogoPlug, but doesn’t have the PogoPlug’s emphasis on remote access and sharing. Instead, the iConnect focuses primarily on local network availability (though it does do remote access too) and adds features like integrated Wi-Fi and printer support.

Can you stream audio over iConnect?

Also, you can’t stream audio or video over the remote connection, but you can display a photo slideshow. If you’ve logged in with an administrator account, you get the same configuration control over the iConnect that you do when connected locally.

Does iConnect have read only?

Speaking of advanced configuration, since the iConnect comes with security disabled, by default it provides unfettered public access to all attached storage (a configuration which is probably sufficient for many). Activating the iConnect’s security feature gives you the ability create user accounts, with an administrative option to provide access to the device’s settings as well as data. Once you have accounts set up, you can configure particular storage devices—though not individual folders– to allow read/write or read only access for certain users.

Setup and Administration

  • Getting the iConnect functional on a basic level is quick and easy, particularly if you’re sticking to Ethernet as the connection method and don’t need to limit access to shared storage. After powering up the device, connecting the network cable, and attaching USB devices (we used a mixture of hard drives and flash storage) you can use the Iomega Storage Manager Windows/M…

Backups and Data Transfer

  • As with most NAS devices, you get backup software with the iConnect, though in this case you won’t actually find it in the box. Rather, you must download the Iomega Protection Suite(an iConnect serial number is required for access), which includes EMC Retrospect and Retrospect HD for Windows (only the former for the Mac), for whole-disk backup and Iomega’s QuikProtect …

Media Handling

  • The iConnect is a DLNA-certified UPnP AV server, so it can stream video, audio, and photos to PCs, game consoles, and other compatible devices (including some TVs these days), and it can also stream via iTunes. There’s not a lot of configuration flexibility here, though; the two streaming methods can only be enabled or disabled together, you can’t designate specific devices or folder…

Remote Access

  • These days, many NAS products offer remote access to your data via a vendor-operated portal Web site with a persistent link to the device. Iomega handles iConnect remote access a bit differently, however, providing a direct device connection with help from TZO’s Dynamic DNS service. There’s a choice of two configuration options available; the basic...
