In addition to the built-in apps that come with ADM, every ASUSTOR NAS comes with several
pre-installed apps. You can choose whether you want to keep or remove these apps. At your
convenience, you can also browse through and download any additional apps that peak your
interest from App Central.
3.1. Download Center
Download Center allows you to easily download and save files to your NAS. Your NAS can
effectively replace your computer in helping you with any download jobs. This provides
you with data protection and energy saving benefits. An ASUSTOR NAS consumes far less
power during operation than a normal computer does. No longer will you have to leave
your computer on for long periods of time while downloading files. Download Center
supports HTTP, FTP, and BitTorrent downloads along with the scheduling of download
tasks and the limiting of download and upload speeds.
Furthermore, Download Center supports selective downloading with respect to BitTorrent
downloads. This gives you the ability to select and download only the files that you wish to
from within a torrent. You no longer need to waste bandwidth and storage space
downloading unnecessary files that you don’t want. Finally, you can remotely control
Download Center using our exclusive mobile app (iOS and Android).
 BitTorrent Downloads: When you upload torrent files to Download Center, the system
will automatically create a new download task and then proceed to add this task to
the download list. Download Center also supports directly inputting the torrent’s
download link as well as the use of magnet links.
 HTTP/FTP Downloads: Download Center supports HTTP and FTP downloads. You only
need to paste or enter the link of your choice. The system will then immediately
begin your download.
 RSS Subscriptions and Downloads: RSS downloading (also known as Broadcatching)
is a type of technology that allows you to select the items you wish to download from
within the contents of RSS feeds. Additionally, Download Center also offers an RSS
automatic downloader. In accordance with your settings, the system will regularly
update RSS feeds and then proceed to download items based on your set keywords
and preferences. This is frequently used with items that require regular downloading.
For example, weekly TV shows.
 Search: Download Center allows you to use keywords to search for files that you wish
to download.
