20 AXIS StorPoint CD E100 User’s Guide
Accessing the Discs
The StorPoint CD integrates into your network operating system just like any other file server.
Thus you can use standard commands to access it.
To access the discs from your Windows and DOS applications, you must first map the StorPoint
CD volumes to a drive letter in order to make the data available to your system. Some applications
will not run properly unless the data is located at root level. Discs that include such applications
must therefore be mapped to individual drive letters.
