ABOUT DEFAULT SHARES

d2/2big Default Shares
Your d2 or 2big Network 2 has three shares (similar to folders) by default: Share, Public, and USBShare
(USBShare will be created automatically when you allocate space for USB access; see
Information for details). The following table sums up the differences between them:
Name Accessibility
Private, accessible only to
Share
admin by default
Public, accessible to any
Public
user on the network
Public (access to
USBShare connected external USB
hard drive)
Thus, when the d2 or 2big Network 2 is connected to the network, all three shares are accessible to the
administrator, and Public and USBShare to guests (USBShare will only be available if you have allocated space
to USB access). On the other hand, when it is connected to a computer via USB, only USBShare will be
accessible.
