New User Interface for the N2R1
A new User Interface (UI) is available for the N2R1 series of LG NAS devices. Although not required, we recommend you upgrade your firmware to the new UI.
While installing the new UI, the NAS will be initialized. This means the NAS will be re-formatted. You must back up all of your data if you wish to upgrade to the new UI.
There only a few disadvantages to upgrading, but there are many advantages. The advantages are listed below in new features and updates. Disadvantages to upgrading are: Hard Drives must be re-formatted, iSCSI for the optical drive is no longer supported, and learning a new user interface.
