[Software Description] This software will update the TS7010 series TeraStations’ firmware to version 1.32. If your unit’s firmware is already version 1.32 or later, you don’t need this update. [How to Verify the Firmware Version] Select your TeraStation from NAS Navigator2. The firmware version is displayed on the bottom right corner of the window. [Updating Firmware] • Do not turn off the TeraStation until the firmware update is completed and the “Finished” message appears. • If this TeraStation’s firmware is version 1.24 or earlier, a message about iSCSI may appear during the firmware update process, even if your TeraStation model does not support iSCSI. In such a case, if any iSCSI volumes are connected to a device, disconnect them using the iSCSI initiator before proceeding with the update. If there are no iSCSI volumes connected, or if your TeraStation model doesn’t support iSCSI, continue the update process. [Notes] • Make sure the TeraStation’s MTU size is set to a value smaller than that of the hub or router. Larger MTU sizes may not allow data to be transferred to the TeraStation properly. • This firmware will send your usage information to Buffalo automatically. For more details such as the information sent and how it will be handled by us, refer to the privacy policy from https://www.buffalo.jp/contents/support/privacy_usage_feedback/. To disable this function, open Settings after updating the firmware to this version, then navigate to ‘Management’ > ‘Update’ > ‘Edit’ and disable “Update Notification”. For more detailed information, refer to the user manual of your TeraStation model. • If settings are initialized with an iSCSI volume that had been created using an LVM-enabled drive or array, that iSCSI volume mode may be displayed as “NAS”, instead of “iSCSI” on the NAS volume list. Even if in such a case, the iSCSI volume remains accessible via the iSCSI initiator. • If OneDrive Sync is enabled on a TeraStation that is in bidirectional sync mode, either of the following operations may cause a subfolder and the files within to be deleted during sync: 1) A subfolder is deleted from the TeraStation’s shared folder at the same time a new file is created in or moved into the same subfolder in the OneDrive folder. 2) A subfolder is deleted from the OneDrive folder at the same time a new file is created in or moved into the same subfolder in the TeraStation’s shared folder. In such a case, recover the deleted files from the OneDrive recycle bin before the retention period expires. • Disable any antivirus software on the computer that will run the updater before updating the firmware. • It is recommended to connect to the computer via a wired connection for updating the firmware. [For Customers Using Replication] To securely copy your data via replication, a backup device access key must be configured for the replication target. Please make sure you have installed the latest firmware downloaded from the Buffalo website onto your TeraStation and verify that a backup device access key has been configured on the replication target folder for any configured replication jobs. Refer to the “Replication” section in the user manual of your TeraStation model for the procedure to configure a backup device access key to the replication target folder. If you are replicating devices over different subnets or through NAT abstraction, using a VPN is recommended for network security. [About Firmware Version] If you update the firmware from your TeraStation’s Settings, you may see a different firmware version than the one uploaded on the Buffalo website. The firmware version uploaded on the Buffalo website is the latest version. [How to Update the Firmware] 1. Extract the downloaded installer file. 2. Execute “update”, then refer to the on-screen instructions. [Release Notes] Version 1.32 [2024-05-07] Added and Modified Features [SMB] • Now supports SMB signing. [Microsoft OneDrive Sync] • Modified so that new status text messages have been added for when synchronization is unavailable. [Backup] • Added the “Send whole files” option for backups. The option will increase the amount of transferred data when backing up files files that are excessively large. However, available memory to be used for backups will be reduced. [System] • Modified a threshold for switching fan speed so that it is now easier for high speed to return to normal speed. Bug Fixes [Dropbox Sync] • Fixed a bug where a job stopped if an HTTP error occurred while the job was running. [Name/Time/Language] • Fixed a bug where the time difference was incorrect for the “Indiana (East)” time zone. If this time zone was set, reconfigure it after updating the firmware to the latest version. [Power Management] • Fixed a bug where an E10 error occurred if both sync source and destination TeraStations acquired the time settings from the NTP server at the same time. [Remote Management Service] • Fixed a bug where the device could not be re-registered because the device status on Settings displayed an unknown error. Version 1.30 [2024-02-15] Added and Modified Features [SSD Caching] • Unformatted SSD cards are now supported. [Backup] • With the following backup modes, the second level of shared folders can now be selected as a backup source, and the second level of USB drives can now be selected as a backup destination: full backup, overwrite (incremental) backup, overwrite (differential) backup, management backup. [Logs] • Improved the content of file access logs. [Security/Encryption] • FIPS mode is now available. Activate FIPS mode to enhance the security to meet FIPS compliance. • Imported server certificates and secreat keys are now verified. [Migration] • Modified to add an option to create a snapshot on a migration target. [Remote Management Service] • Modified so that the session recovers automatically from a disconnection that occurred due to a temporary failure. Bug Fixes [Folder Setup] • Fixed a bug where auto-archive settings did not work properly after configuring the TeraStation as a failover backup device. [LVM] • Fixed a bug where LVM volume capacity cannot be expanded after an SSD card is inserted or removed. [SNMP] • Fixed a bug where the TeraStation performance became slow if information was acquired frequently via SNMP while a USB drive was not connected. [Backup] • Fixed a bug where if a shared folder on an LVM volume had been selected as a backup source, all files were backed up even if management backup was configured. [Failover] • Fixed a bug where snapshot settings were not transferred to the backup TeraStation. [Migration] • Fixed a bug where settings were not transferred if both the migration source and destination contain a folder with the same name. • Fixed a bug where some IP address settings were not transferred if port trunking was disabled. • Fixed a bug where the “transhbox” folder may have been transferred even the recycle bin option is set to exclude from migration. [Settings] • Modified to patch vulnerabilities (CWE-22 and CWE-693). • Fixed other minor bugs. Version 1.24 [2024-01-09] Bug Fixes [USB Drives] • Fixed a bug where if a USB drive was connected to the TeraStation while the firmware is updated to version 1.22, the USB drive became unwritable.

Version 1.22 [2023-08-23] Added and Modified Features [Microsoft Azure Storage Sync] • Modified so that if restore fails due to insufficient free space, incomplete restored files are subsequently deleted. • Modified so that if restore fails due to insufficient free space, restore processes will not start until manually resumed. Bug Fixes [Folder Setup] • Fixed a bug where if an incremental backup job was run for a shared folder on this TeraStation using the Arcserve UDP backup software, extra capacity was consumed. After updating the firmware, release any extra capacity held by moving the old backup data to another location or delete it, then creating and running a new incremental backup job. • Fixed a bug where if a file was being saved into a shared folder on a Btrfs volume and the file size was larger than half of the volume’s free space, a write error occurred. [Microsoft OneDrive Sync] • Fixed a bug where files that had been already uploaded were re-uploaded when a job was recreated. [Failover] • Fixed a bug where a notification email was not sent when the E27 error appeared due to a backup device not being found. [Settings] • Fixed minor bugs. Version 1.20 [2023-07-06] Added and Modified Features [Folder Setup] • Modified the default selection of WebAccess permissions to “Use folder permissions”. [SSD Caching] • Modified so that the E45 error will appear when an SSD card may possibly be malfunctioning, even if it is not actually malfunctioning. [Failover] • Now supports failover. [Logs] • Modified so that if a drive that contains the shared folder for saving file access logs is dismounted and the TeraStation is powered off, the save location for file access logs will switch to the system area. Bug Fixes [SMB] • Fixed a bug where unnecessary files are created in the recycle bin if files that have extended attributes, such as message files, are copied into a shared folder.
