: today I opened up the DockStar and connected a usb-ttl cable to the internal serial port. I only had a 5V usb-ttl cable, but it works.

From my Linux workstation I did screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200Īnd then I powered up the DockStar. Note: to quit screen use ctrl-a, followed by shift-k.

Now a big name in the storage business, Seagate, has jumped onto this bandwagon and released its own USB drive-based NAS device, the Seagate FreeAgent DockStar.

Instead of reinventing the wheel, however, Seagate chose to license the Pogoplug technology from CloudEngines and integrate it-with a few differences-into the DockStar. You can get for example via Ebay a serial RS232 cable (Siemens C55 RS232 Datenkabel, about 5 EUR). It converts basically the 3.3 V signal level from the CPU to +/- 6 V on the RS232 side. The pinout for the 12 pin telphone plug is: The color for the the data lines may be different. The board inside the DockStar does have a 10 pin connector with 2 rows of 2 mm spaced pins. The 2 mm spaced plug comes from an old notebook harddisk or CD-ROM adapter. If you have opened the DockStar Pin 1 is the upper right one of the 10-pin header when the ethernet jack looks away from you and the 10-pin header is on the side near you. You have to use the three pins on the lower right (6, 4 and 2). In the data cable the data wires may have a different color, just test it if doesn't work, the hardware doesn't take any harm if those wires are exchanged.
