A download manager, which is actually a torrent server for downloading torrent, FTP, and HTTP files, is included.īackup The interface's overall look is cramped, and dated. There are, however, some additional features like support for SSL, SMTP, and proxy servers. This is a consumer NAS, so there are no business-user features, such as integration with Active Directory or other directory services. Network Space 2 owners can create users with passwords and establish disk space quotas for those users. However, that access is only to browsing files on the NAS and not for remote management. When I enabled remote access, everything checked out as configured correctly and I did have remote access to the NAS. The NAS sets up remote access by automatically configuring port forwarding. Lacie gives you its own domain () to remotely access to NAS, so you can access it from outside your network.

It's an improvement over the clunky setup of Lacie's older product, the Wireless Space.įeatures and Management When they first log into the Web-based management interface, users can opt to register the NAS for free downloads or configure it for remote access. One of the better experiences with the Network Space 2 is this rather simple installation process.

I ran only into one hiccup during install: I couldn't access the Web-based dashboard until I rebooted my machine.

The NAS has three shared folders setup by default: OpenShare, a public folder accessible to anyone on the network, MyShare, an administrator-only folder, and USB Share another Public folder. This icon lets users access the shared folders, go into preference options, access the Web-based management software, and mount shared drives (including attached USB drives).

After installing it on a Windows 7 machine, I found a Lacie icon was added to my System Tray.

The installation software initializes by displaying four on-screen choices: 'Applications,' 'Documents,' 'Products,' and 'Exit.'Ĭlicking 'Applications' gives the options to 'Install Lacie Network Assistant,' to install Adobe Reader (for viewing the included PDF user manuals), and to install the Genie Backup Assistant, a free backup utility that comes with the device.īefore you set up the NAS, you've got to install the Lacie Network Assistant. Getting the Network Space 2 Running To setup the Network Space 2, run the Lacie Network Assistance located on the accompanying Lacie Utilities CD from a computer connected to the same network as the NAS. It's probably not surprising, therefore, that it runs hot. The device sits on four rubber feet which barely give one quarter of an inch ventilation space between the surface the NAS sits on and the underlying vent. A design decision I cannot understand is that the largest cooling vents are all underneath the device. Some may like its high-gloss finish, but I find it too smudge-prone. The Network Space 2 is a small NAS, measuring 7.6 by 4.6 by 1.8 inches (HWD). This side also features the power connection and Gigabit Ethernet port. On the other, is another USB but only for connecting PCs and Macs. The USB 2.0 port is on one side of the device. This port is used to connect external hard drives, flash drives, or a printer. The device has only one USB port for connecting devices, which gives limited expansion options, particularly annoying in a NAS that only has one single fixed drive and offers no RAID. It ships in two models: 1TB priced at $160 and 2TB at $200. It has a single, fixed drive, so that means no RAID functionality. Although it's better than the last LaCie NAS I reviewed, the LaCie Wireless Space, Lacie's developers would do better to focus less on how the device looks and more on its functionality.ĭesign and Hardware The Network Space 2 only has NAS functionality and no included wireless router capability (as did the earlier-reviewed Wireless Space device).
