3. Select a drive letter for this folder, check the Reconnect at Logon checkbox, then click

"OK".

4. This drive will now be available in Windows Explorer, and from the File- Open or File-

Save As dialog in all Windows applications.

Notes:

When you try to access a folder, you may be prompted for a password, as shown below:

Network Resource Password Dialog

• If your Windows logon name is the same as your user name on the NAS, but the

passwords are different, you can enter your NAS password here.

• But if your Windows logon name does not exist on the NAS, you will have only guest

access rights, and there is no password which you can enter in this dialog. You must

ask the NAS administrator to create a username and password for you on the NAS.

• Even if your username and password are correct, you can't gain access if the NAS

administrator has not allowed access.

You can also use the Windows utility “Flash Map” installed from the bundle CD-ROM disk:

1. Suppose the CD-ROM drive is disk “E” in your PC. You can find the Flash Map in

“E:\utility\Flash Map”. Please double click the “Setup.exe” and then follow the steps to

install. After installed, the utility will autorun and search your NAS-7100 on the network.

2. Select "Share Folder Mapping", and a screen like the following will be displayed.
