SHARES: ACCESS AND TRANSFER FILES
ABOUT DEFAULT SHARES
A share is a network volume that you can configure to store and share data. Your LaCie NAS has two shares by
default: admin and Public. Please note that the share admin will change to the name used by the administrator.
For example, if the administrator changes the default login "admin" to "John", the share admin will become John.
The following table sums up the differences between them:
Name Accessibility
Private, accessible only to
admin
admin by default
Public, accessible to any
Public
user on the network
It is also possible to create new shares and/or to delete the default shares. See
