For best performance, enable only those file-sharing protocols that you use. For example, if
you do not use Linux or Unix computers to transfer files to and from your ReadyNAS system,
disable the NFS file-sharing protocol. Disabling file-sharing protocols that you do not use
maximizes system memory and improves system performance.
