Network Share Management

you can create different network shares for various types of file or provide different file
access rights to users or user groups. Once you have initialized the SATA disk, several default
network shares will be created. You can manage the network shares in the following ways:

| Access Control |
Once the share folder is created, you can start assigning access rights to users or user groups.
Full Access
Unlimited access allows the user to read, write or remove any files or folders on the network share.
Read Only
