Home Folders

Enabling home folders creates a personal folder for each local and domain user on the NAS. When a home folder is created, the user's home folder appears as a shared folder called home. Users can access their home folder through Microsoft networking, FTP, and File Station.

All user home folders are located in the homes shared folder. By default, only administrators can access this folder. If home folders are disabled, home folders become inaccessible to users. However, the folders and files they contain are not deleted from the NAS. Administrators can still access the homes folder and each user's home folder.
