You could try the installation guide: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNAS_Desktop_IG_EN.pdf
Though personally I browse to https://nas-ip-address/admin to complete the setup at step 8. You can enable ReadyCloud later on if you like.
As general advice: The NAS isn't a simple "set up and forget" device. It will require some willingness to explore the options, and develop some understanding on how it works. You won't find an easy set of "how tos" for everything you are likely to want to do. Folks here will give advice if you run into rough spots. But we are customers too, and we aren't going to generate a lot of guides for you.
