4 Managing the storage system 174
Note: You can expand the amount of disk space allocated for
shared folders later (as long as free disk space is available), but
you cannot reduce it without reconfiguring your disks and losing
all your data.
If you plan to back up computer disks to your storage system, it is
recommended that you use the minimum amount of space for
shared folders, back up all the computer disks that you plan to
protect, and then expand the space allocated for shared folders.
This ensures that adequate space is available for backups.

10 Close the browser.
After the system restarts you can access the IPStor Express
Manager and re-create your users and shared folders (as described
in “Managing users” on page 127 and “Enabling and disabling an
account” on page 28.)
