I just received my DNS-323 and would like to move my files from my desktop to the NAS. I heard that the firmware 1.03 doesn't support unicode so I am wondering if I should wait until the official 1.04 firmware comes out before I make the move, since many of my files contains Chinese characters. I am also worrying about losing data when later I need to upgrade to 1.04.
I am moving to another country in November so very likely I will get rid of my desktop and mainly use DNS-323, besides my laptop, to store most of my data. Of course I will backup the most important ones on DVD/USB drives, but it's kinda difficult to backup the entire 500GB files.
Any suggestion?

As long as you have no Chinese characters in your filename, you are fine. But if you have Chinese characters in your file/folder name, you have two option:
1. Wait 1.04 or use 1.04 beta and samba 3.x with UTF8 for full unicode support.
2. use 1.03 and use easy search util to set your DNS-323 use Chinese as language. But this will not compatible with other language characters.
Use 1.04 beta, you may face some risks, especially for Microsoft office documents.
Use 1.03, I believe even upgrade to 1.04, native language still supported, but it will not be full unicode support.
Again, all those issues related to file/folder name only. Content of your file is not a matter.

You can also use TrueCrypt and create a encrypted image disk on the DNS-323 which you can mount. This will preserve the filenames and files etc...

All right, I guess I will have to wait until the official 1.04 firmware is out. I do have some file/folder names which are in Chinese.
Any idea when 1.04 will come out? All the previous firmwares are published in a 2-month period. Don't know if D-Link is still working in that pace.
