  1. Network Attached Storage (NAS) recommendations


    From another thread I posted about accessing the c$ on computers on my network, an idea formed. What if I just had a NAS setup, then any computer on my network (including visitors to the house), can access data.

    Now I am looking for suggestions on a decent NAS, with network access (not USB). Any ideas?

    I know I probably want one with 2 hard drives in it, for redundancy and to setup a RAID of sorts.
    Alas, that might be on the expensive side.

    Regardless, looking for ideas.

    Thanks all

    PS: Mods, feel free to move this, if it is in the wrong place. Couldn't decide if this under hardware or networking...

  2. Network Attached Storage in Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    I understand the inconvenience you are facing in accessing Network Storage Drive after upgrading to Windows 10.

    Try few of the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Disable anti-virus software and Windows Firewall.

    NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you have to temporarily disable it to install
    other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Follow the below steps to turn off Windows Firewall:

    • Press Windows + X, click on Control Panel, select
      Category and then select Large or Small icons.
    • Click on Windows Firewall.
    • Click Turn Windows Firewall on or off. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    • Click Turn off Windows Firewall (not recommended) under each network location that you want to stop trying to protect, and then click
      OK.

    If the issue still persists,

    Step 2: I suggest you to reconfigure the NAS drive and check if it help.

    Network Attached Storage (NAS) recommendations

    Connecting to Network Attached Storage

    I have done as you suggested and re-posted my problem on link which you gave.

    The answers to your questions are:

    • W10 Pro
    • Wired Ethernet
    • Yes. The two computers on the network can see each other and the NAS. The laptop running Widows 7 Pro can open the NAS but Desktop running Window 10 Pro can’t.

    • Network Attached Storage (NAS) recommendations b489b17b-b419-40c4-8717-00c1dc361e5b.jpg
    • Public Folder sharing is off
    • As far as I know you can’t set up a workgroup on a Synology NAS
    • Yes
    • Yes
    • Solwise SAR-600EW which also provides the Ethernet connections for the LAN and WiFi.
    • Only my desktop
