Setting up a Network Drive on a Windows PC
You can also use SmartNAVI for this purpose, see “Mounting a Share Folder /
Creating a Network Drive” on page 90. If your PC does not have SmartNAVI, use
the following procedure to setup a Network Drive with My Network Places.
Using the SMB protocol, SmartStor supports up to 16 concurrent connections.
To setup a network drive:
1.
On the Windows desktop, double-click the My Network Places icon.
2.
Click the Search button in the toolbar.
If the Search button is not shown, from the View menu, choose Toolbars,
then Standard Buttons.
