If you want to do more with the box (have some standard tools, top, bash, nano, vim) you can install, a script allowing to install software and configure a shell.

This is a leftover from the 3.x firmware. So if your password is apples, log in using sohoapples. If your SSH connection still fails after setting this up, try logging in using soho+(yourpassword). This is very vaguely explained in the documentation, but since 4.x you can set root password using the web interface.

SSH access: In order to get SSH access to this Linux box (yes, it runs a fairly old kernel: Linux 2.6.31.8 armv5tel), you need to enable diagnostics mode in the firmware.

If you’ve got a constant blinking blue light for days, find out what’s causing it. Pretty pissed that this got into released firmware.

This might have been fixed in more recent firmware versions, but I would suggest not taking the gamble. This led to the machine running very hot and a hard disk failure after 4 months already. I thought the blinking blue led was indicating RAID check activity, and shrugged it off, but it was actively torturing my hard disks. Disable the built-in media server: Last time I tested, the delivered media server in the firmware was an older version with a huge bug: if it encounters any file on the system with the.mp4 extension (a popular media format), the indexer will fail, and indexing will begin again.Configure access control: By default, the NAS allows any computer connected to your network to grab files.Kudos to Lenovo for keeping this device up to date with latest patches for SSL and services running on it – not a lot of vendors doing this.

In order to upgrade to the newest (4.x) firmware, you’ve got to upgrade using ix2-ng-4.tgz before updating to 4.1.114.3342 (the latest version at time of writing). Mine came out of the box with a 3.x version of the firmware. Upgrade the firmware as soon as you get this thing out of the box, and preferably before you connect it to the internet.Unfortunately, the out-of-the-box firmware has some serious issues. The product also cames in a “cloud” edition, which has some additional software tweaks, but is essentially the same hardware. It was a pretty cheap deal, and came included with two 3 TB Seagate disks for having 6 TB of storage, or 3 TB in RAID 1.

Since then, the company was bought by, which does the support now. Last year, I bought an, a simple box which can hold 2 hard disks for network attached storage.
