File Shares on a local path along with

SMB is a network file sharing protocol
using which you can access files or other
resources at a remote server. SMB
functions as an application-layer network
protocol. This allows you to read, create,
and update files on the remote server.
NFS is a network file sharing protocol
used to access files from any location on
the network, transparently. An NFS server
makes a directory available to other hosts
on the network, by sharing the directory. It
allows the user to designate all or a
portion of a file system on a server which
can be accessed by the clients with
appropriate permissions assigned to
them. You can store and update files on a
remote system.
