Installing USB mass storage devices
To add more disk space to the Network Drive Pro, plug a USB mass storage device into one
of the USB host ports. Then turn on the external USB device. The disk space on theUSB
device should appear as a shared folder. When using SMB (Windows File Sharing), it may
take a few minutes until the Windows-based computer detects the new folder. If you
are using a browser (HTML) to view your files, you can click Refresh. This shared folder
can be accessed via FTP, HTML and SMB (Window File Sharing). The folder is configured
with read and write privileges for all users located in the master directory (/). Once the
device is attached, you can limit the user privileges. Please read the chapter on adding
users and groups and on setting folder rights.
Attention: Optical drives such as DVD writers can only be used to read
files and data.
Attention: When attaching a card reader, you need to insert the flash disk
before connecting it to the Network Drive Pro.
