Quota

You can enable quotas (in MB or GB) for users and user groups to help manage storage space. When quotas are enabled, QTS prevents users from saving data to the NAS after the quota is reached. By default, quotas are not enabled for users.

QTS provides three types of quota settings.

Type

When enabled, the quota is applied to both new and existing users.

Quotas are applied per volume and are not shared across volumes.
