Basic Share Concepts

The volume or volumes on your ReadyNAS storage system are divided into shares, which
are similar to folders or directories.

Data Organization

Shares are the way that you group your data. You might want to group your data by type, for
example:
• Photos
• Music
• Videos
• Documents
Another option is to group your data by user:
• Tom
• Rick
• Mary
Organizations might choose to group data by department:
• Accounting
• Sales
• Personnel
You can combine these schemes or come up with your own scheme.
Your ReadyNAS storage system comes with two shares already created:
• backup
• media
If you want, you can delete or rename these shares. You can create other shares to organize
your data.
