Creating SMB shares for Windows workstations is easy using the Dashboard.
Important info: While it is possible to create SMB shares with the Server Manager, LaCie recommends using the Dashboard only. Windows has integrated SMB Shared Folders into the Dashboard to better manage and organize data. A few simple steps allows you to create, adjust, or delete your SMB shares as desired. Additionally, features and attributes differ between the SMB shares created via the Dashboard and those configured using the Server Manager. LaCie cannot guarantee optimal operation when using the Server Manager to create SMB shares.
However, you must use Server Manager to create NFS shares. See
Shared Folders - NFS for further information.
