folder password to add some security. With password protection enabled, all network users enter the same password to access the shared folder. To browse shared folders from an Internet browser on a computer within your home network or remotely, the public shared folders must be password enabled or the folder must be set to private (see below). For additional information, see To use network addressing to browse on page 76. For instance, if you registered MyFamily.hpshare.net for your HP Media Vault, you would use this address to connect to your server using remote access. • Private - Private shared folders are the default. They are more secure since you create network users on the Users tab and you define "access privileges" for each user for each shared folder. It is recommended that you use private shared folders if you are using remote access since each user is assigned a password, increasing the security level of your Media Vault. For additional information, see Creating a User on page 55. 6 Select where you want the shared folder to reside. The options available to you depend on how your Media Vault is setup. The HP Media Vault is initially set up with one non-mirrored drive. • Mirrored - A mirrored share automatically stores an exact copy of files on a second hard drive. Using a mirrored share reduces the chance of you losing critical files if one hard drive fails. • Non-mirrored - A non-mirrored share is stored on a single hard drive. The HP Media Vault does not automatically maintain a copy of these files on a second hard drive. • USB - You can add external USB storage devices to any of the HP Media Vault's USB ports. Small USB devices, such as key disks and jump drives, can be attached. Likewise, portable devices, such as cameras and phones, can be attached if the Media Vault detects those devices as USB storage devices. If you have any questions, check with the USB manufacturer to verify that the device is classified as a USB storage device. Note: USB devices only appear on this page if they were formatted using the HP Media Vault Administration Console.
