Storage > Disk

The storage options are available when a USB storage device is connected to the USB port of the Router.. If the storage device does not fit (for example, it may block port 1), then use the included USB extension cable..

The Disk screen describes the disk 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)..

Each shared folder created on the Disk screen has a unique name (Display Name), is mapped to a folder on the disk, and specifies access rights to that folder..

Access rights are managed by group and user accounts that you create on the Storage > Administration screen (refer to Storage > Administration, page 29).. Each user has his or her own login and belongs to a group.. Each group has either read-and-write or read-only access rights.. By default the Router creates two user groups, admin (read-and-write access) and guest (read-only access)..

By default the Router creates a shared folder called Public, which can be accessed by the admin and guest groups.. Any sub-folders you create in the Public folder will have the same access rights..

The Router does not automatically share any pre-existing folders on the USB storage device, so you will have to create shared folders if you want network access to these pre-existing folders.. You have two choices:

•• Create a shared folder that shares the entire partition

•• Create multiple shared folders, which share specific folders with specific user groups

Proceed to Create a Shared Folder, page 25..
