Do not perform disk operations (format, partition and chkdsk) when multiple com-
puters are connected.
•
The NASPerform can be formatted/partitioned/chkdsk only when one computer is
connected.
•
When sharing the NASPerform between Windows 2000 and Windows XP, perform
chkdsk, if data corrupt occurs, NASPerform function will be restored. However, cor-
rupted data will be lost. Therefore, do not force to take over and mount Read/Write
access before other computers are unmounted the write access permission.
