SC101 Storage Central Access
I am trying to access an old SC101 from any of the following pc's, Window 10, Mac, or Virtual windows XP but not having any success.
Questions
1. Is there any way of logging in or accessing other than the Netgear SCM 3.0.6 program?
2. From the support website this downloads as a Bin File and will not run?
3. Will it only run on 32 bit software?
4. I have tried the Mac version but cannot get this to run either.
5. I have installed JRE Runtime but then it wants Flash Player that I would be reluctant to install and is not available any more.
Any help would be appreciated.
Finally sorted, downloaded a virtual WinXP 32Bit to VirtualBox. In VirtualBox set up bridged network card to see my own network and then a Virtual shared drive. Loaded the SCM utility onto windows. Managed to transfer all my old data accross.
Thanks for all suggestions.

Welcome to the Community!
Were you able to access the data before? SC101 is pretty old and EOL but you may be able to access it if SCM is installed. The .bin file is a firmware for the SC101 you should try downloading the other link the which has the .exe file for windows
Please see this link
Though it says US only but maybe worth a try.

It is very old now but was working correctly when last used. Pings OK.
I have tried the SCM 3 0 6 US Version but this will not work on 64 bit windows.
I was thinking of install a 32 bit windows virtual machine but then you run into issues with it been on another network.
Do you know if there is any way to FTP into it or any other client software.

Is the drive not showing under explorer? Do you have any LED indicators lit? any error message? If it is not accessible we may need to use SCM to set it up again.
Not really sure if there are still users of SCM, hopefully they can share steps to do.
