backup and media directories
Hello All -
I am trying to tidy up my storage and try to use my ReadyNAS Duo v2 with 2 3TB Western Digital Red hard drives in a more logical way. Two questions:
1. Can I rename the "root" directories, "backup" and "media" to make them more meaningful to me?
2. Can I add further directories at the "root" level?
If so, how?
Thanks,
Ian.

These are shares, not really "root" folders. You can rename them, or delete them.

You can add more shares. Read chapter 3 here: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS%20ARM-PLATFORM%20(DUO%20V2,%20NV+%20V2)/RAIDiator%205.3%20SW%20Manual_5Sep12.pdf
