User Quotas

A quota determines the amount of disk space allocated to the user on the
WD Cloud device. Provided below are the rules for assigning user quotas and the steps to
assign a quota to a user account.
Quota Rules
Assigning user quotas allows you to better control the disk space allocated to a user or a
group. There are various rules dictating which quota takes precedence over another.
Note: If user permissions and group permissions differ, the most restrictive permission
takes precedence.
A User quota must be less than or equal to the group quota (e.g., if your group has a
20 GB quota and you try to set the user quota to 30 GB quota, you will be prompted
to reduce your user quota to be equal to or less then the group quota).
If the user quota is not set, the group quota is assigned to the user.
