the space used exceeds the configured threshold. To configure email notifications for the quota, refer to the

section in chapter 10.
Notes:
• When using quotas, disable the recycle bin or empty the trash folder often. The limited space includes the space
used for trash.
• Quotas apply per drive or per array. If a quota is set to 1 GB, each array or drive can use a maximum of 1 GB.
• Quotas cannot be set for external drives connected to the TeraStation.
• If both user and group quotas are configured for a user, the most restrictive quota will always apply.
• When joined to a domain, only local users and groups will be able to set quotas. Domain users and groups will be
able to configure access restrictions for shares but cannot set quotas.
