Using your LinkStation

Adding shared folders

By default, the LinkStation includes one shared folder “share”. You may add additional folders as follows.

1 In the Web Admin interface, click [Shared Folders] - [Folder Setup].

2 Click [Create Folder].

1 Enter desired characteristics for the new share.

Note: If you would like to copy the settings of an existing folder, select a source folder from the [Copy Settings From] dropdown.

2 Click [Save].

You have created a new share.

To protect your data from accidental deletion, you may enable a [Recycle Bin] for the share (not available for Apple and FTP connections). Deleted data in a shared folder will be temporarily moved to the [Recycle Bin] folder. To recover deleted data, open the [Recycle Bin] folder and move files.

Read-Only shares cannot be modified or deleted. To make a Read-Only share, select [Read Only] in the [Shared Folder] screen and click [Save].

Notes:

By default, [shared Folder Attributes] is configured as [Read & Write].

A shared folder set to [Read Only] cannot be written by any users or groups, even if they have read and write permissions. Read-Only folders are read-only for all users.

Read Only shares are described as [Read Only] in the shared folder description.
