To access the data on the Gigabit SATA NAS via the network connection, you can
use either FTP or SMB. Before you can access the shared folders, you need to
set up your users, groups and shares (see Section 3).
5.1 File Access on a PC
5.1.1 FTP
Open Windows Explorer and enter “ftp://” followed by the IP address of the Gigabit
SATA NAS. Add the username and password in front of the IP address with “@” in
between; for example: ftp://demo:demo@192.168.11.21.
After login, you can access the available folders and transfer your les. Remember
that les can’t be opened directly via FTP: You always need to transfer them to
your computer rst.
NOTE: For FTP transfers, it’s recommended that you install and use a dedicated
FTP application, either a free utility or a professional shareware program.
