Understanding W-600 Series Best Practices and Exceptions
l Only FAT16, FAT32, ext2 and ext3 partitions are supported.
l For shared folders in an ext2/ext3 partition, the owner of the folder must be “nobody”. Otherwise clients will not
be able to access the shared folder.
l Unsupported partitions may exist on the NAS device; only supported partitions are mounted.
l User authentication for file access is not supported. The same permissions are applicable to all users.
l Sharing disks that contain errors may cause unpredictable behavior. Scan the disk for errors before mounting the
disks to a W-600 Series.
l Un-mount all partitions before disconnecting the disk from the controller.
l Detection of devices connected to an external USB hub may be unpredictable.
l A USB hard disk connected to the controller via an USB ExpressCard adapter is not supported.
