From the company’s official announcement, the user interface seems to be getting the biggest changes, including several new features to the UI’s looks and functionality. This includes a customizable desktop environment with better icon layout configurations, background themes, app icon grouping, and restorable desktop snapshots.
Additional desktop changes include updated widgets for Storage Manager and Activity Monitor intended to improve system status visibility in real-time. Additionally, the login screen can now display system messages, online help and app shortcuts.
For entertainment and digital lifestyles, Asustor ADM 3.0 also enhances its photo browsing and music playing using the ADM’s File Explorer applet.
Asustor EasyConnect, a new feature in ADM, is a passthrough function that lets clients connect to ADM 3.0 powered NAS devices even if they’re on a different network. Accessible through the mobile app or the downloadable Windows utility, customers can connect to their NAS remotely to access data and features.
Lastly, ADM 3.0 integrates Seagate’s IronWolf Health Management diagnostics tool, reporting on drive health, and environmental conditions like humidity and temperature. IronWolf gives Asustor NAS owners a heads-up if current conditions warrant any preventative actions to protect their data and device.
More information about Asustor’s ADM 3.0 is available on the company’s website.
