3. Adding USB Disks
The PlatinumNAS has two USB ports for attaching external USB disks such as the Fantom
Drives Titanium2 and Geforce Megadisk lines of products, formatted in FAT32 or NTFS. Please
note that NTFS volumes will be available in read only mode. Attached disks are accessible by
navigating to \\[platinumnas]\usbhdd\usb[x]\[y]
Where: [platinumnas] is the netbios name or IP address of the PlatinumNAS, USB[x] refers to
the port the disk is attached to, and [y] refers to the
partition number. See chapter 4, Connecting Users,
for more information on accessing shared data.
IMPORTANT: The PlatinumNAS cannot format
external USB disks. In order to access USB disks
over the network, make sure your external disk is
formatted as FAT32 or NTFS. The PlatinumNAS
can access NTFS partitions for reading only.
