Since regular users can't modify [[:start|Main Page]] then here is the right place where you can point out some [[:start|Main Page]] mistakes or suggestions how to improve it ^_^
===== Done =====
Would it be possibe to remove the help text for DNS, which in this case i a part of the product name and not Domain Name Server.
Also, can we rename the "How-to fun_plug" to something more informative, e.g. "Howto Hack" or something more appropriate. A user entering for the first time will look for "hack" and doesn't have a clue what the fun_plug is,
Instead of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/xxx|xxx]]'' use ''[[wp>XXX|XXX]]
----------------------------
Harware Specifications: i would suggest to show also average values of powerconsumption for this embedded device. thats seems an important infomation for comparison of embedded linux nas-devices (to me).
look here: http://forum.dsmg600.info/t155-Power-usage.html
i was bored while watching my DNS-323 sit there.
So I thought I see how much power it really uses.
Pulled these from my UPS monitoring software, seems fairly consistant on a number of runs.
This is with two Seagate 320gb drives.
off 0 watts (ya think?)
Initial boot, pre-disk spinup 16 watts
Initial boot disk spinup 63 watts
Idle with disk spinning 16 watts
Web access 16 watts (no change from idle)
reading/writing files 31-39 watts variable
printing small files 16 watts (no change from idle)
printing large files 31 watts (spool to disk?)
Idle w/ disk in power save 8 watts

DLINK DNS-323 it Conceptronic CH3SNAS?
Link added and its a clone device --- //sala 2007/10/17 14:55//
**Consider updating the memory section on the main page. I looked it up at Nanya and it should be 2 X 256 MB NT5DS16M16CS-6K chips (each chip is 16 X 16 MB)** -- Also the link on the memory is dead.

The [[http://forum.dsmg600.info/t1797-%5Bannounce%5D-optware-dns323-build-1000%2B-ipk%27s.html|optware]] discussion could use a howto page, anyone agree?\\
