3.1. About Default Shares

The LaCie 2big Network 2 has three shares (similar to folders) by
default: Share, Public, and USBShare
tomatically when you allocate space for USB access). The following
table sums up the differences between them:
Name Accessibility
Share Private, accessible only to admin
by default
Public Public, accessible to any user on
the network
USBShare Public (access to connected exter-
nal USB hard drive)
Thus, when the 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 the 2big Network
2 is connected to a computer via USB, only USBShare will be ac-
cessible. It is also possible to create new shares and/or to delete
the default shares (except USBShare). See section
Shares for details.
