When a USB drive is connected to the USB port of the Router, a shared folder titled public is automatically created and shared on the USB drive.. You can access the contents via Windows Explorer or the Mac Finder.. For details on accessing the contents, refer to How to Install and Access USB Storage - Overview, page 45..

The Storage options can be edited in the browser-based utility when a USB drive is plugged in..

The Disk screen describes the disk (USB drive) currently attached to the Router.. Use this screen to create shared folders, safely remove a disk, or format a disk (any data on the disk will be deleted during formatting)..

Shared folders are folders on the disk that are accessible via the network.. You can specify individual folders that you want shared or share the entire partition.. By default, existing files and folders are not shared on a disk that is plugged in for the first time.. The only folder that is shared by default is the public folder that is automatically created.. You can manually provide access to additional folders and grant access to specific users or groups..
