Shared Folder Defaults

If you used ReadyCLOUD or the local setup wizard to configure your ReadyNAS storage system, the following shared folders are created for you:

•Backup

•Documents

•Music

•Pictures

•readydrop

•Videos

If you want, you can delete or rename these shared folders. You can create other shared folders to organize your data.

File and Folder Names

A shared folder can contain subfolders to help you organize your data files. If all characters in the file or folder name are alphanumeric, the maximum length of the name is 255 characters. If you use other kinds of characters, the maximum length might be reduced. For example, if a file or folder name uses Kanji or Hanzi characters, the maximum length of the name might be 83 characters.

File-Sharing Protocols

You can access shared folders over a LAN or WAN network. Network access to data stored on your ReadyNAS system is managed by file-sharing protocols, which handle the transfer of data.You can access a shared folder on your ReadyNAS from other network-attached devices (for example, a laptop or a tablet) if you enable the file-sharing protocol that the network-attached device uses to access the ReadyNAS. You can enable multiple protocols for an individual shared folder, allowing users to access the shared folder through various methods.

For information about how to configure and enable file-sharing protocols for shared folders, see Set Network Access Rights to Shared Folders on page 48.

The following table lists the file-sharing protocols that your ReadyNAS storage system supports.
