Netgear ReadyNAS on automatic

One of the interesting features of the Netgear ReadyNAS is the automatic shares for users and USB devices.

Each user you define on the NAS gets an automatically created private share. The share is not seen unless you log into the NAS as that user.

Printers or storage devices plugged into the NAS USB ports will have a share defined for them while they are active. This is one reason why you should access the NAS admin page in order to disconnect the USB storage devices properly as you not only dismount them from the system but you have to remove the share.

This automatic share handling is convenient and seems to work well.
